Renogy Flexible Solar Panel 100 Watt, 240° Ultra Flex Bendable

I've been using two of the Renogy 100 watt flexible solar panels for about 3 years with our van. I mounted them to 1/8" plywood and deploy them whenever we're camped. They've worked great, and I've seen as high as 175 watt output in right conditions. I have a 25 foot cable, and like being able to park in the shade and put the panels in the sun as opposed to having them on the van roof. These are very durable and should last for many years.

Taped it to the top of my minivan with rv roof mounting tape. Charged my bluetti with it every day. Performed well. Would purchase again.

Easy to install, lightweight, robust and great electrical efficiency.

I'm really not sure why the companies ask why to rate things right after you bought them ? Why not ask after 6 months or so when you can get a real feel for the product ? All I can say right now is that it is a good product and I made a pvc platform to angle it for evening top off of batteries.

I purchased two Renogy 100 watt Flexible panels to charge a Goal Zero Yeti 1000 solar generator. We live in Florida and experienced a glancing blow from Hurricane Irma last year that left us without power for a few days. Although my neighbors had gas generators, keeping them filled with gasoline was the big challenge. I have been running tests with my Renogy panels and Goal Zero generator that I use to power a mini freezer. So far it appears that we will be able to run the freezer by charging during the day and running the generator at night. We are hoping to be able to make ice for our coolers as well as some for various neighbors who don't have generators. ( Getting ice was the another challenge last year.) Of course the biggest mystery is, if we really get slammed with a direct hit will any of this matter anyways! (I'll get back to you if that happens, if I can!) But I really like the Renogy flexible panels for my purpose. I like that they are lightweight, easy to move and haul in and out of the house. I made frames for them out of small PVC pipes so that I can adjust them with the sun's movement. (By the way, if you purchase Renogy panels and extension cables, which you will need - buy 2 cables for each panel. To solar experts, that's probably obvious, but to the rest of us, not so much. Fortunately, I read an Amazon review and knew to do this.) Prior to purchasing, I emailed Renogy with a few questions and they were very good and generous with their time, info and patience. (I think their website needs to be a little less slick and more informative - my only complaint for Renogy.) Renogy has a good reputation and I will say these panels seem well built and substantial. Unfortunately I have had a little glitch with the Goal Zero (which is being replaced) so I had to curtail my tests. I was able to get 140 watts from my two 100 watt panels. I realize that you never get 200 watts from 200 watt panels, so I figured we were doing okay. If I find I do any better when my Goal Zero is replaced, I will add to this review.

The 100 watt panel works well. I measured 5.9 amps being produced in full sun. Pros: 5.9 amps measured current 5 year material warranty, 25 year power output warranty. Nobody else even comes close to that. Connectors look solid and well fastened to panel. Cons, which are minor: Has a textured surface, supposedly to catch the light better. May be harder to clean. 7 inches longer than Renogy's prior version of a flexible panel. Has one long and one short connector wire. Long wire should be about 2 inches longer so matches short wire length when both wires routed to short wire side. For those of you measuring watts produced, be aware that the specs say 5.29 amps at 18.9 volts (surprising that I measured 5.9 amps) 5.29 amps × 18.9 volts = 100 watts. But if you have a PWM solar controller, it just chops off the volts above 14.4 or whatever your controller max voltage is, and you just lose it. An MPPT controller will convert some of the extra voltage to amps, but it's not 100 percent efficient. Edit: After a few months it's down to 5.3 amps.

3 on the roof, powered my van easily. Actually knocked one off with too much wind, after multiple cars ran over it, I reinstalled and it still works years later. Will use again on next build.

Overall output for four 100 watt panels was about 200 to 225 watts. These were placed on the boat roof and had decent sun, but were straight up, not tilted towards the sun. Overall, 100 watts per panel seems to be only achieved in the lab.

Di ottima manifattura e buona resa. L'ho montato da poco ma per ora sono soddisfatto!

Premiers essais très positifs, finition de bonne qualité, à voir dans le temps. monté de manière non permanente sur un van de manière à pouvoir optimiser l'orientation. J'ai réussi à avoir 89w max.

軽くて施工しやすいし防水もバッチリです。

Genuinely capable of yielding the advertised 100W. It's robust and flexible. Slightly larger than expected - but an excellent product, small enough to be used as a portable solar panel. Some solar panels offering 100W and above have an open circuit output voltage that's slightly too high for smaller power banks (power banks around 300 Wh or less), so they trip out the power bank. But this gives you 100W without tripping out your power bank. You can connect to any power bank that has a DC 5.5mm input - just use an MC4 to DC 5.5mm converter cable. No voltage regulator needed! You just need the panel, your power bank and the convertor cable and then you can easily set it up anywhere. You can leave this outside, it's fully waterproof. (Your power bank obviously needs to be in a watertight and sunproof container if it's outside). I've tested lots of panels - and this offers the best balance of quality, power, portability, strength, flexibility with a low enough open circuit output voltage to be compatible with small or large portable power banks. Highly recommended, buy with confidence.

Oft halten die flexiblen Module nicht so lange. Ich habe in 8 Jahren mit Renogy nun bereits die dritten Flexi Module auf dem Dach. Bei meinem Mobil sind feste Module keine Option. Diese Renogy Module haben ein Top Preis Leistungsverhältnis. Die Anschlüsse mit den MC4 Steckern sind robust ausgelegt, so dass ich denke dass sie eine Weile halten werden. Ich habe jetzt Mitte Februar Mittags mit 2x100 Watt Modulen 80 Watt Ertrag gehabt. Das ist wirklich sehr gut 👍. Die Verarbeitung war einfach, da sie einfach aufgeklebt werden. Ich bin sehr zufrieden. Die Lieferung war ordentlich und die Module waren gut verpackt.
