TF TRAVER FORCE Solar Panel 100 Watt 10BB Monocrystalline 12V Solar Panels for Home High Efficiency Solar Module Power Charger for RV Camping Cabin Marine Boat Motorhome Off-Grid Black

3 hours my battery is fully charged

After research I found that Traver Force 100 Watt 10BB solar panels are the exact same ones sold by atleast 2 other names / Parent companies. These are made at the same Factory in Vietnam.I made a Solar suitcase from 2 panels and made the stands from casement window hinges.These are going to be used when we Dry Camp / Boondock in our RV that has builtin controller to supplement our power usage, and reduce Generator run time. So far I am getting 10 - 12 amps with some clouds.These panels are well built and a good value.

I used my portable solar power station to test this panel out and I was getting roughly the same efficiency as my other panels on the roof. Angling the panel at the sun and connecting an MC4 to DC8 cable to connect to my 300 watt portable power station I was pulling 50 watts of power. For comparison I have 3000 watts across 15 panels connecting to two Ecoflow Delta Pro and 400 watts of panels connecting to an MPPT controller on a SLA battery. The other panels on my roof were getting around 42 ~ 45 percent conversion efficiency while this panel was getting 50 percent with a better angle to the sun. The other panels I have are from Ecoflow, AllPowers, Alrska, and Renology.The panel came nicely packaged in a sturdy box with foam corner protectors and arrived intact without any damage. The standard MC4 connectors allows quick connection to my existing panels and I plan on slowly replacing some of less efficient panels with higher current panels. Reasonably priced for the quality and craftmanship and well packaged monocrystalline PV panels with maximum current rating of 6A.

I had never heard of this brand before, but I am glad I gave them a try. I have been looking at various panels for a while and these are a great combination of quality and affordability. I can't believe these are selling for so cheap. Yet there is nothing about these that looks cheap. These are heavy panels, made with monocrystalline cells, aluminum, and glass. They are sealed with silicone and are waterproof.Testing revealed the output to be accurate in full sun, and on cloudy days these still work great, and are far more efficient than my higher wattage portable panels. I decided to go ahead and buy more of these since I already got to review the one through Vine. I couldn't be more satisfied.Also if it matters to you, these panels are made in Vietnam, not China. This is obviously a newer company, at least to the solar market, but these panels are great. I think they deserve to be known. For the quality and price, you really can't beat these panels.

First try testing this panel was on a very cloudy 43 degree day. The panel managed to put out 46w. Very good for the sun being a blurry blob in the sky.Second try was on a cold 40 degree day with bright sunshine. This panel put out a high of 105w.Both of these tests happened in the morning around 10am. The panel was propped against my deck rail so nothing special. I'm definitely buying more of these for a solar system I am planning to build.
