Are the solar panels durable as they are exposed to the wind?
The image is clear and well taken.

This solar panel is great. Folded up it’s about the surface size of an iPad and 1-1.75 inches thick depending on whether you measure the little junction box sticking out or just the depth of the panels. It’s under 3 lbs which keeps it plenty portable but you will still notice it in your backpack. 3lbs is definitely light enough and even though you can find slightly smaller, lighter panels here’s why you probably shouldn’t:

It isn’t always sunny. Even if you only aim to get 20 watts to fast charge a mid-tier power bank it’s great to have the surface area to catch up to 40w in ideal conditions because as the term implies, you often won’t be in that setting. There are going to be some rainy days were it’s inconvenient to get anything at all which is just a fact of life with small solar panels. But with ~4ft and 40w of solar capability, this can easily keep you going on cloudy days too. As long as it isn’t a total wash out and you can see a bit of blue sky somewhere this 40w panel will still catch 8-10 watts through some pretty serious clouds. A nice day with a clear view of bright sun will get you 33-38w and you can plug along at full speed, but those days when thick clouds won’t stay out of your way you can still catch a decent charge just getting 20-30% of the max input. Plus once the sun comes out and you get some direct access to sunlight you’re off to the races.

And $ for $ this hands downs outperforms my 200 watt panel. Choose wisely if you really want you're solar panels because of it's dollar values. And this ain't my first rodeo with this blamblastted machinery's.

I have quite a few portable solar panels and so far this is one of the nicer ones that I have. It's rigid, fairly light, charges my batteries and devices in a decent amount of time. To me, it truly fits the "portable" category.

I got this 100 watt solar panel for an amazing price after coupon. My 360 watt power station has an mppt limit of 60 watts. When I plug it into an outlet with the power cord it comes with I get around 55 watts. With this solar panel I get 58.8. It's actually charging faster than my regular outlet! I went from 20% to 100% in about three hours. I'm thrilled with that! It's such great quality. It's super sturdy and stands up great. I angled it the best I could into the sun and it did great. I'm excited to try charging my iphone and ipad. It folds up perfectly into a briefcase style carry and has a great handle to carry it with. If you're even considering this, don't hesitate, after the coupon and additional discount at checkout, it's by far the cheapest 100w solar panel with this high of quality I could find. One of my better purchases!

Very pleased

This is a very well made panel. It is molded together and not stitched together with fabric. This will take some abuse, I have 2 other 100watt solar panels made similar to this one and they've been drug around for 3 years without looking tattered.

The solar side is highly textured with some thick type of plastic, then those are molded to a substrate and the back is a molded on durable synthetic material.

I've only used this 4 days and only one of those 4 days was it clear enough, and we were sedentary long enough, to angle it the best I could to follow the sun. During that time I had it connected to a portable power station to give it a charge. This power station shows the input it's receiving. The highest it went was 20 watt input from this 30 watt panel.
I'm not saying it's not 30 watt capable, but it's a real challenge to angle this folding panel perfectly to pull the 30 watts.
If you'll be hanging this from a tree, backpack, car, or maybe flat on the ground, over a boulder for short stents, instead of being sedentary and focusing on angling the panel perfectly every 30 minutes to follow the sun, you can expect an average of 5-10 watts output while mobile.
This isn't a complaint any solar panel would require this to pull its full capacity.

We did use it to top off phones and small camera equipment, enough to get us by throughout our trip.

I'm pleased with it and glad to see a well built folding panel that endures outdoor activities in a small package.

This doesn't come with any cords, you'll need to provide your own.

Hopefully this was helpful, Thank you!

I used the solar panel to charge my Progeny 300 watt solar generator. On a nice sunny day I was charging at about 33-35 watts. That mY not sound like a lot but when plugged into AC outlet to charge, the Progeny only inputs 35 watts. The panel is very compact and comes with plenty of cables including a multi-cable with lightning, USB-C and mini USB. The panel has two USB outlets so you can charge your phone or tablet right from the panel. So far very happy with product.
