I like it very much...quality and function are top notch. I did have a problem when first hooked up. It is rated up to 20amp output. Shipped with a 10amp fuse which blew two of them. I replaced it with a 15amp and it has been fine.
Worked easily but only suggestion is more instructions so users not familiar with solar power can be confident they are using it correctly

Best overall package

The combo of features at the price is unbeatable. The 200 watt suitcase solar panel is heavy, but that’s expected for quality glass panels that size. I love the protective case which doesn’t add bulk and makes it easier to pack. The solar charge controller is easy to understand and program. Thanks for that! An upgrade option to MPPT would be nice. I had one or two loose bolts. The legs will hit the frame near the pivot points, so care must be taken when setting the tilt angle. A tiedown point for windy conditions would be nice. Overall very nice, and I believe I’ll be getting many years of use.
Used this product for three weeks hunting kept RV batteries fully charged the whole time. Lights and furnace used constantly. Never had to start generator. Only gripe is packaging was poor and the fuse case melted and had to be replaced with A heavier wire. I’m hearing that this is a problem. Would be nice if it was taken care of before it was sent.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This solar suitcase so far has lived up to expectations. Amps generated are lower than claimed, but not by a lot. Would be good to be able to include option to replace the alligator clip cable with a cable with male/female attachments at both ends for those of us with units prewired for solar.
Works great. Simply connect to your battery and it starts charging. I now have on order a 1000 watt Renogy inverter and 2 US 235 ah 6 volt batteries to complete my system in my RV. Battery monitor is next.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Well built. Works great

I purchased mine for my RV. We mostly boondock in the National Forests. Charges 2 6 volt batteries in no time at all. Easy to set up and hook up.
This is a top quality all-in-one solar generator solution. You can apparently charge regular batteries with the built-in controller, but in my setup, I bypass the controller and connect directly to an EcoFlow Delta that has an integrated charge controller. The panels are made of nice quality glass and the frame looks like black painted aluminum. There is some weight to it, as expected, but it is pretty easy to set up and take down. This should last a really long time if the glass is protected.
