Paired with EcoFlow Delta

Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2020

Works seamlessly with ecoFlow delta. It is not lightweight but it has excellent build quality with Matt finish. The carrying case is very useful it only it provides storage and easy transportation but also as support so the solar panels can be angled correctly toward the sun.

The max output measures was 70w in a partially cloudy day. Unfortunately we don’t have perfectly sunny day lately. I will keep you guys updated during the summer time!

Not getting enough input

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2021

I have a few EcoFlow power stations, River Max, Delta, and River Pros. I just received this 160w solar panel. It's well built and study. The downside, using the case as a stand is horrible. It's not study and a bit of wind will knock it down. So I just lay the panel flat on the ground (see picture).

It's easy to set up and connect to the Delta 1300. The charging is slow, which is given. However, I'm only getting 100-107 watts input. This is far from the 160 watts advertised. I know it will not reach 160 in optimal condition, but getting 100-107 watts input, in direct direct sunlight, is not acceptable. It should be around higher, like 140-150 range. Maybe, I have a bad unit? I'm going to return it for another and see if the results are better. If not I'll try another brand.

UPDATE 6-26-21
Received the replacement panel. It's 85 degrees and the sky is clear. It hot and I have it at 45 degrees angle. The max I could get is 116 watts. These panels are never going to get anything close to 120+ watts. 160 watts is a pipe dream. How do they get away with advertising it at 160 watts? I'll be returning this and try another brand.

Frustrated

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2021

Size: 160W SOLAR PANELVerified Purchase

Bought EcoflowRiver plus the additional battery and 160 watt panel to charge
In full sun and on a hazy day the highest input I have gotten is 63 watt
Got it to charge phone and alpincool dual zone 60 Litre fridge
Stressful that it’s input is so low if you worry your food will spoil
Disappointing
Called customer service and they said to give it another 5-8 hours and if it doesn’t input of 100 watt then call back
It’s 12:30 on a sunny day of 70 degrees and the input says 52
Argh
I hope to update that it will reach that. I will update after 8 hours
But this is a very expensive panel for this poor input

Poor power delivery.

Size: 110W SOLAR PANELVerified Purchase

Rated at 110 watts, would never deliver more than 67 regardless of orientation or sun brightness.

Even called support, they said I would receive a call back. Called Amazon support, they said the same. Nada.

Two stars for packaging and convenience. Nothing more.

It doesn't deliever 160 watts

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2022

Size: 160W SOLAR PANELVerified Purchase

This solar panel has been pointed directly at an intense Arizona sun on a clear day. The best this panel has ever done is 110 watts. For it's bigger size than similar solar panels and what I paid, it should produce what it claims. The stand that holds the panel upright is a pathetic designed compared to other panels I've owned.

Not compatible

Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2022

Size: 160W SOLAR PANEL

This panel is not compatible with their own EcoFlow units that I recently purchased (EcoFlow RIVER Plus and Eco Flow Pro) The jack doesn't have the correct connector, nor does it come with an adapter or any info on how or where to purchase one. Furthermore, customer service is overseas and...., well you can imagine the communication brake down factor.
For the amount of money I spent for the Eco Flow RIVER Plus and other 2 products you would think it would come with the proper adapter, or better make it compatible with their own products. Sending back to Amazon.
Thank goodness I bought it from them and not directly from manufacturer!
