Why can my solar panel not provide 200W of output power?
Rated 200W is the optimal test result under ideal conditions. The output power can vary due to sunshine, panel orientation, temperature, etc. To get a higher wattage, please place it under stronger sunlight, at a perfect angle, and avoid shadow.
What can this 200W solar panel charge?
1 piece of 200W solar panel is ideal for BLUETTI EB3A, AC2A, AC70, AC180, AC200L, Elite 200 V 2, AC300, AC500, B300K portable power stations, and can also charge most other power stations. Ensure compatibility with its VOC (24.6 V) to avoid damage.
How many solar panels do I need to charge the BLUETTI AC200L/AC200MAX?
For better recharging rate, we recommend connecting 3 pieces of solar panel, which can top up your AC200L/AC200MAX in 3.5 hours.
Do I need to purchase an extra controller or cables to charge my BLUETTI portable power station?
No. All BLUETTI power stations come with the built-in MPPT controller which can maximize the input power, and the MC4 cable to connect with solar panel.
[200W Solar Panel] - BLUETTI 200W portable solar panel is compatible with solar generator like EB3A AC2A AC50B AC70 AC180 AC200L Elite 200 V2 AC300 AC500 B300K and others on the market.
[High Cell Efficiency] - Built with monocrystalline solar cells, 200W solar panel can convert up to 23.4% of sunlight into usable electricity, giving you solar energy even in bad weather.

Title: Performed above Expectations
Review: Tested these panels once received with both an older Bluetti EB55 and brand new AC70. Got right at 150 watts into the EB55 at around 10:30am under partly cloudy/sunny skies with high wispy clouds but still 85F. Tested them that same day around 11:45am with the same sky conditions just a little warmer and was putting at a low of 153watts and a high of 178watts then steady at 168watts. Very pleased with the build quality, the cordage, adjustable stands, grommets to hang if needed and the overall form factor of these make for a very nice portable solar package. Not the lightest by any means but very well made.

Title: BLUETTI Solar Panel PV200D
Review: Works as it should, got 70-120 watts charging speed on a cloudy day just checked the angle for when the sun peaked through the clouds. Fold up design makes it very portable and easy to hook up. Highly recommend.

Title: Efficient panel, longterm durability not known
Review: It works as advertised and because I got it on sale its value for the money was good (for me) but its regular price seems high. It's heavier than it looks, the blue handle's long term durability is unknown. Now, to the good things...The highest wattage I was able to capture while using it was 179W; normally I am getting 164-166 in full sun with the panel properly positioned against the sun. It has internal parallel wiring meaning that its performance in partial shade will be better than many competitors' panels wired in series.I saw some mentioning that it had panels made by SunPower, a premium manufacturer of solar panels with high efficiency, but there is no indication of that on the packaging.Note that although this panel is of folding type it's still too bulky for many applications and carrying around. If that bothers you there are so called solar blankets sold by other manufacturers that are more compact but costing much more.

Title: Great Panel good power output but the handle is garbage
Review: This panel the PV120D 120watt panel exceeded my expectations for power output and easy setup. I like the adjustable legs and I love that they put 3 of them on it and in decent locations to keep it stable. It is a little larger than I expected but that is my fault for not fully reading the dimensions. Now like several others have mentioned the blue plastic handle is the letdown. Don't try to carry it that way unless you wrap some duct tape around it to hold the thing together, even then you might have an issue with it failing. They put a cheap plastic handle on a great panel, I guess if you are going to skimp on something, might as well do it on a non critical part. I did a little testing on this and I managed to get it to 90 watts delivered to my Jackery 240 solar generator, and it got 105 watts to my shell 500 PowerStation. I didn't even have it properly aligned to the sun and it gave these results. The panel only has MC-4 outputs so I needed a converter to make it work with my brands of generators. That said, the converter is not included, also no USB ports at all which I think is a missed opportunity. I did test out the panel in shade as well. I literally folded the last 2 sections up and it still gave a respectable 35 watts out of the remaining 2 open panels. This is due to the panels being wired in parallel not in series. So if you are in an area where you might get some partial shade on some of the panels this panel will still perform well as opposed to a panel being wired in series that if you shade part of it your power output drops by 80 to 90 percent. The little straps they put on it to keep it closed seem a little weak and the durability and longevity of them is questionable at best. However I just used a bungie cord on my old panel when the straps failed. So I would have given this 5 stars if it wasn't for the darn handle and the closing straps being of poor quality. Everything else is top notch and like I said before, it's such a shame to skimp out on the handle and straps. Come on Bluetti I would easily pay more $$ for a better handle that won't fall apart and better closing straps.

Title: Owned 2 yrs used over 8000 mile trip
Review: Used this in two road trips last summer this summer. Folded up and took with us when parked to charge the bluetti 800 power station. In the car, being handled every day for about 2mos. Used and set up a number of times when more charge was needed.This needs to be set up each time you use it. It doesn't mount to a vehicle, but folds up and buckles shut.Cables built right into the panel and zip away into pouch right on it.Work in part sun, if blocked in a little shade. But does give less power if not alligned in full sun.Jasonoid on YouTube gives great reviews in detail about tech specs on this and several other solar energy devices.Easy enough for one person to set up. Can be a little wobbly The cables are about 10 feet long. Plugs right into solar receptacle if your power station has one.It will charge your power station depending on the input your station can take and the available sun, and, how much power the batteries in your station can hold.I have a number of bluetti products, and they are all well thought out, ergonomically, durable, well made, and easy easy to use.Can get a teeny bit wet but it's not meant to get rained in or soaked or submerged. Dewy grass is probably fine, but there is a fabric case to this product.It's a great portable panel, if you need it only to boost your power system. My minivan has a 12 volt lighter type jack and charges my system while I drive. When I am parked without driving this charges my system to run my small 12v fridge in my dodge caravan on the days we camp and stay at a site.I am very happy with this panel.

Title: I love Bluetti products, and this is no exception
Review: I am a die-hard Bluetti fan. This is the second panel I've bought, along with another power station. I live in an apartment, so folding panels are a necessity. Bluetti panels are some of the best around, rugged and easy to use. I'm a 60-something grandmother, and I appreciate how easy these are to get out of the closet and take outside.A small solar power station and a panel would make a nice gift for senior folks. Power outages happen everywhere, and this set-up makes life better.

Review: I don't understand how this technology exists, but the engineers behind this portable panel, and the power bank that I purchased from Bluetti have done their homework. I use the power station at work, and sometimes I just need to top up when powering multiple tools for the day. This thing is pulled me out of a jam a few times. And it's going to be great for emergencies.

Review: I originally tried to return this item to MAXOAK UK but they supplied a totally incorrect returns address to me via Amazon. The return cost me a significant amount and when it was sent back to me by the parcel carrier I duly tried to contact MAXOAK UK to arrange a refund and arrange collection because the mistake was of their making. They ignored my emails and my phone calls went straight to voicemail. I subsequently gave up and kept the item, which I suspect is what they hoped I would do.

Review: Pannello da 120 super professionale compatibile con tutti i prodotti bluetti niente a che vedere con quelli che si trovano che costano un poâ meno ma se va bene rendono la metà possibilità di collegare più pannelli tra di loro. Acquisto consigliatissimo lasciate stare il resto. Tempi di consegna un poâ lunghi perché arriva direttamente dalla casa madre ma vale la pena aspettare. Servizio Amazon come sempre impeccabile.
