    I recently purchased a Grecell 200W folding solar panel on your review. I have had it for over a month and it has performed beyond my expectation. Its a little weighty, not flimsy and charges my Anker 757 very efficiently. Thank you for your recommendations! With so many items to choose from its easy to get it wrong.

  • @paulaann7543

    • @solarwind907
      @solarwind907 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      There’s a reason you don’t see small wind, turbines around much. If you make one cheap enough, that people will buy it, it’s garbage. If you make it robust enough that it will produce power reliably for the long term, a few researchers will buy them to put at their mountain top research stations, but not enough, and you will still go out of business.
      I predict the next question will be “why can’t I put a wind turbine on top of my van and make free energy while driving down the highway?”
      Anyway, beware anyone trying to sell you a small wind, turbine and telling you it will work well and last a long time if you mount it five or 10 feet off the ground at your campsite.
      Safe travels

  • @solarwind907
    @solarwind907 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Bob, it’s funny that you make a big deal about the solar panel being rain proof. I’ve installed thousands of normal, non-foldable solar panels with 25 year warranty’s, and of course they can be outdoors in rain, snow, wind, etc. with no problems.
    Any solar panel that I wouldn’t leave outside and bad weather I would consider a piece of junk. I guess that’s different with foldable, RV quality PV modules.
    Thank you very much for the video, I do appreciate it!

  • @jacumbahighlander
    @jacumbahighlander 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Just bought both of those items per your prior video. Got the Hepway power station in only a few days. My only concern is that it doesn’t have a storage compartment for the cords and AC adapter. Minor issue though. The panel arrives tomorrow. I’m electrifying my truck shell with these. I already have four 100w panels, 50A charger, four 100Ah AGM batteries, and a 3000W inverter on my travel trailer, so I should have plenty of power now with the ability to put the TT in shade and the truck in sun, if needed. Keep up the good work, Bob!

  • @markpashia7067
    @markpashia7067 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Bob that looks as good as the Bluetti which is way over priced I bought it because I had no clue and when you recommended the EB70 when it first came out I was green as grass, so I bought the power station and about a week later I bought the solar panel since I was not sure what worked with the power station Figured if they were made to work together I could not go wrong. It cost me a lot but very happy with quality. Now that I know more I would not have paid that much but too late now. Now I am a couple of years down the road and happy with both purchases but this looks as good for a lot less money. Thanks for what you do to keep us informed and learning.

U give us the disclosure of u got it for free to test and u promised the mfg. nothing in return. U save me a ton of money. I dont buy anything Bob doesnt recommend.😊 You cant be bought. Your product videos are priceless. Im a bricks and sticks girl but Bob said to prepare for natural disasters and power outages 💥 so Im doing it cuz...

    I bought Bluetti solar panels in 2020, and the back is some kind of heavy duty fabric. I haven’t used them yet because my nomad journey has not yet begun. I’m curious as to whether I could Scotch Guard just the fabric side or if that would possibly mess it up. At this point, I believe I’m past the warranty, and will obviously make sure it works well before I go anywhere, but I was just curious about the possibility of using some sort of protectant on the fabric. Has anyone done this?
