“Good quality panels but I'd expect more for the price really, like a longer cable, a watt meter or Bluetooth, and a better carry case. On three different tests the output was as advertised and stated on the label which is an improvement on my previous panels. They are surprisingly lightweight and easy to fold out and put away, unlike my previous 300w kickass folding panel which weighted a tonne! But a hinge was broken on opening, the bag is already showing wear from a week's camping, and a 5m cable isn't quite long enough. Flashy branding makes them more likely to be stolen. Good quality competitor prices like dometic and jaycar are significantly cheaper for the same product, so I'm wondering why they are priced so high.”

“It was a bit heavier than I thought it would be, but that being said the build on the whole thing is great. Matching it with the 10 metre 8AWG Anderson cable is a great mix. This cable is amazingly constructed. Strong, water resistant etc. Love the overall product, delivering the promised current.”
“I've just received my new 200w panel, watched your video on how to set it up.
And noticed regulator not working as it should . Reading 21v on my multimeter. I disconnected straight away, worried it would cook my new battery .
I decided to by another regulator, plug it in and tested five . Charge rate normal .
I would like replacement part all complete new setup . Thanks .”
