USB C is more complicated than just 2 wires, so I suspect you would want to use the solar to charge a 2 wire input based solar generator that has a USB C output to further charge a USB C only solar generator. Or use a DC in to USB C out module.
The Anker 625 manual says 26.5V @ 3.77A, which is 99.9W. That means that 26.5V is the operating voltage. The open circuit voltage is likely higher, potentially a few volts higher. The Jackery 100 Plus has a voltage range of 18V to 27.2V. It's very likely you're tripping over-voltage protection on the Jackery. Please measure the open circuit voltage with a multimeter.
@@wwjoshdewStick the panel into full sun, turn the multimeter to DC voltage, and measure the output from the panel with nothing connected. The voltage will actually go down as the panel heats up, so it may go into the acceptable range of the Jackery at some point.
@@adriftatlas i recently moved and dug through so many boxes. Of course, it was in the last place I looked. I found my multi meter. I have never even used it. I bought it to hard wire my dash cam and figure out which fuse was hot and which got power with a key turn. Never actually used it. But I found it, and I’ll try tomorrow! Thanks.
My guess is that adapter would only work with Jackery panels. And i would honestly be careful plugging it into other things like your phone. It could just stick 26v direct from the panel into the USB C port of your phone for example. Provided you have a USB C car charger that supports 24v as well. You can use one of those. Connect that to the panel and then USB C cable from that to your phone/powerbank etc. Still wont be the most efficient or anything as you really need a MPPT to make best use of a solar panel but it will work.
❤❤hi there, next time you may want to check the specifications for wattage and voltage on the paperwork or website of jackery for your specific charger and also check the same for your solar panels before winging it and guessing whether it will work and leaving it up to chance. That's a good way to ruin your nice tech toys.. other than that... love your enthusiasm and excitement about your new tech toys..
You need a DC7909 to DC8020 adapter
I just looked that up. So many choices. You can go MC4 DIRECTLY to DC8020! Thanks!!!

@@Electronzap did you watch the last few seconds of this video?
Since it's not charging your phone either, I wonder if the issue is with the USB-C adapter. But thanks for do that!
I tried every possible thing with that DC8020 connector but the only thing that worked was another connector (DC7909 to DC8020)

@@adriftatlas hmmm. I'll have to look into that. I have a multi meter somewhere, but I'm a complete noob at how to operate it.

I'm hoping he didn't connect his phone directly to the orange USB-C adapter. That would push 26.5V+ into his phone. ☠

You are absolutely right. I made a mistake and I’m sorry.
@@wwjoshdewno need to apologize friend.. I was just worried about your phone or whatever blowing out.. have a beautiful day and God bless you... ❤
Yeah, others kinda already schooled me on that. just new to solar and learning.
We are all learning but thanks for your candour and saving the rest of us the trouble of experimenting! Good work @@wwjoshdew
You don't need a jackery panel, I charge mine with powerfilm 120 and offgridtrek 120 just fine. Something is probably wrong with your jackery.
Hello
Hi!
18w thunderbolt panel works ok, 'ish.😂 Tried it, did not get full 18w, was charging at 6-7w.
wrong connector
I don't know which one is right!
me when watching josh videos😲😲
i debated on posting this. but I got enough requests... so I did it.
😂😂😂😂😂😢😢😅😅😊😊

Try other USB c port or maybe defective adapter @@wwjoshdew
