Customer Reviews for Goal Zero - Boulder 50 Solar Panel - Black

This panel is an excellent piece of hardware. Lightweight. Sturdy. Durable. I am absolutely in love with the tempered glass on the front. Mine has been through a Summer in North Alabama which includes hot, pollen, rain, wind, and even some bird droppings. It still works wonderfully. I do need to clean it a few times a month to keep it in good shape. Still, I believe it would operate under more negligence. I intend on buying another. I did buy the Boulder 100 Briefcase. Also incredible.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It does a terrific job of recharging my Goal Zero 150 power bank!

I love the Boulder 50 solar panel. It easily connects to my yeti 150 and powers it in a very short time.

I love my Boulder 50 Solar Panel! It pairs well with my Yeti 500X power bank. I use it just to charge different devices (phones, speakers, computers, headphones) and it provides just enough power to do that!

I set the panel on my deck railing, facing south. The panel generated between 20 and 25 watts per hour.worked well with my Yeti 500.

Warning if wanting to chain multiple panels
on September 9, 2022
Posted by: Kjs0

The boulder 50 cones with cables to chain multiple panels in serial. Be warned that if you do this, as i did with 2 panels, the second panel only adds 5 to 10 watts of charging power. This was verified by a GZ tech who said " that is all you should expect." Apparently you need the 8mm combiner cable to connect in parallel to get better performance. It doesn't state this anywhere on the product description for the panel.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Well Built - Power Rating is Overstated
on September 21, 2024

This panel is well built. Would like to purchase a carrying case but doesn't appear to be an option. Power rating is overstated by at least 25%. Even with the MPPT module, clear day, 75 F, 50 degree sun angle the maximum output is 36 watts. If GoalZero support wants to reach out and let me know how to improve the output, I am open to suggestions.
I have the same issue with the 100 watt panel.
