Anker SOLIX PS400 Portable Solar Panel, 400W, for Camping, RVs & Blackouts

( 2 of these 35lbs. 400w panels (70lbs) and a 767 Powerhouse 70lbs. ) you can power any campsite. Have a gas generator too? Even more Day power. If you just need the solar panels for your set up, they seem like they just need to be mounted, but could be taken if needed. But they are heavy, bulky, nice build quality but I wouldn’t aim to be rough on them. Was getting peak sun/uv index and no clouds, good heat so with all that 2x 400w panels 275w from each. 550w. Obviously not the full 400w but still nice for free portable power

It may have been a great product for a really good price but when I saw the UPS driver struggling to carry the box to my front door, I knew I should have gone with 200 watt panels. I had to return it because it was going to be too heavy for my girlfriend to lift and use by herself. Live and learn. I love Anker ‘s quality products from solar to battery packs. I’ll wait for the 200 watt panels to go on sale.

The only thing about these that’s a little disappointing is the snaps. They are nearly impossible to unsnap. I have 6 of these and get very good results. A little heavy and much easier to set up with 2 people, they do work well. Easy to store and the adjustments using a sunshine target spotter attached to them is all it takes to maximize PV. Counting line loss- I’m happy with the wattage results.

handle broke lifting it out of the box. Seems the connection between the handle halves is fairly flimsy, and I wrote to Anker, not to return it, but just to let them know that this was a design flaw. They just tried to deflect and blame me for their construction flaw. Not that it doesn't work, I just duct taped it, but could be better designed and better customer service.

En países que serán afectados por cortes de energía, es una alternativa para cubrir la demanda de un hogar. Tenía 10% de carga y me tomó 3 mañanas y tardes cargar al 100% la estación F2600. Programaré la compra de otro panel PS400 y mejorar el tiempo de carga.

Buyer beware- this “400W” panel only produces 195W even under perfect blue sky in july conditions. I originally purchased a PS200 panel and was so impressed by it’s 180W power output and how simple and light it was that I ordered a this PS400 unit expecting the same but it was so disappointing I thought it was defective and returned it and ordered another. But it had exactly the same poor performance, in addition to being unreasonably heavy and awkward to set up. If you need 400W (~350W in RL) I’d recommend getting two PS200s and a Y cable. I’m a big fan of Anker products but this one is really disappointing. So much so I returned the second unit and ordered two 200W off-brand PS200s and ended up saving momey!

I put these on two rails, then mounted them to my roof, kinda a test. They have passed for QUALITY, DURABILITY, FUNCTIONALITY, and price.

I have 3 of these and can never seem to get 50% of watts out of them. They are heavy! Kickstands make them warp! Very disappointed in these. I have tried them in EVERY WAY POSSIBLE! Angled flat semi angled. And still barely get 600 watts out of them. Won't be buying them anymore. Will stick to rigid panels moving forward! As folding portable panels do not produce the power. Im in AZ it is clear blue sky with no cloud in sight and its in July. Ans yes I know they don't perform well in extreme heat but 40% performance is VERY BAD PERIOD! The only time they have been great is taking them with me when I use my travel trailer. But id trade more power for convenience any day.

It’s big, not the easiest to handle and place. However it was kicking out around 300w in full sun. It’s just difficult to reposition as the sun moves

These flexible solar panels are absolutely fantastic. They are the backbone and heart of my entire Anker Solix battery bank electrical system in an extremely remote off-grid location. I literally depend on them for my daily life, and they deliver reliably every single day. The build quality is outstanding, and they handle harsh conditions without missing a beat. If you need dependable solar power in the wilderness, these are the panels to get.

Anker's panels are way overpriced. This panel is also huge/heavy and takes up a lot of space to set up.
