Yes this has been pointed out to me. I guess I added some extra info to my notes on this as I was also review the Ecoflow River Pro 2 at the same time. Must of mixed up the info.
Thanks, I am actually in the US. I have an BLUETTI EB 55, whichI have used this solar panel to charge as well. It does a good job. The EB240 is a beast compared to the EB 55 but should charge just the same.
You can never get more then 110w out of this panel, man! Don't give your audience the wrong impression, that the overcast is the reason! This panel is highly overrated!
I can regularly get over 110w with this panel. If you make it to 8:06 in the video you can even see on a better day just laying it out flat I got 116w. I can understand felling the panel is overrated but I am not trying to mislead anyone. I welcome alternatives that you might know of. I am always looking for better price to output.
Some helpful time stamps:

110 vs 160: 6:19
Conclusion: 8:54
Awesome panel, good size and efficient.
Yup, they have been my go to for panels for years now.
You answered my question in the first few seconds of the video. Mc4 connector. Lol
The MPPT charge controller is built into the Ecoflow River series, not the panel.

Nice video. you appear to be in the UK. I'm in county durham and considering a couple of panels to keep my BLUETTI EB240 charged.

If my charge controller says 130 watt max would this still be ok?
Chances are you should be ok, just means your not got to get more then 130 in.
How much did you bought it for?
I got it as part of a bundle with the river pro but it would have been about 55% off at the time. Right now on Amazon it is 80% off: amzn.to/47tbLp8
Can I connect the 160watt to my river 2? (Not the max)
You could but the max input from solar is 110w. So anything above that would be lost on this unit.
@@EscapingValerie That is the one I had mentioned.
I got mine all connected and its cloudy out. But Its not generating anything. Is this normal? I figured it would still register.
It really depends on how cloudy it is. If it is very bad you might not get any input at all.
