All the credit for this deal goes to the OP yesterday, ryansinibaldi, for a really good and popular deal that sold out relatively quickly for these solar panels.

That deal was marked dead, but the panels have been back in stock this afternoon and no one has resurrected the old thread, so here's your heads-up.

Here's yesterday's OP with discussion: https://slickdeals.net/f/16531255-lion-energy-go-20-solar-panel-9?v=1

Here is the link to the panels: https://lionenergy.com/products/2...ion-cub-go

The price shows as $10 marked down to $9, but use code "BN" to make it $8.50.

Thanks again to yesterday's OP-- if you're going to rep anyone, rep him.

Enjoy.

Received mine today. I can confirm the dual male micro USB is unregulated 8V open circuit from the panel, and the two plugs are in parallel. The female USB ports on the box are separate. 1 panel won't have high enough voltage for solar controllers so I tried splicing 2 panels up in series and got 15.6V open circuit in afternoon sun.

In afternoon sun I got about 24W (13.3V at 1.8A) from the 2 in series which is less than I expected for the conditions, but maybe it was a bad connection (I was using alligator clips to temporarily connect the wires). A 100W rigid panel in the same conditions was getting 75-80W.

Yeah the 2 female USB-A ports are regulated at 5V so I'd trust it as much as any other cheap phone charger. They don't have any fast charge protocols so you will be limited to 5W or 10W depending on if you device is willing to accept 1A or 2A without any fast charge protocol.

If you leave your phone or power bank you'd want them out of the sun. If you put it under the panel's shade make sure the panel is propped up to allow airflow underneath or your phone will bake.

It looks to have 2 USB plugin outputs on the bottom of the black box on the back.

That might calm a few people down.

It's just a re-branded panel.

I'm going to assume it's not even 'water resistant' considering how far they went out of their way to skip that topic.

Still seems like a deal.

Could this be used to power 2 Wyze cameras? Also, I assume you'd need a battery pack to store power?

Given that these have USB output, I suppose you technically could with the right USB battery pack. That last part is important... many will cut off after a given time, and not provide continuous power to USB output.. or it might not provide output when being charged, etc.

The panel itself is probably fine, but the USB output, probably not..

So in theory if it is placed below an awning at a 45 (or so) degree angle and there is a light rain shower, it should be fine? Obviously anything close to a storm would probably fry it, but a light rain killed my last folable mini-panel with the single port on the back (about halfway down the panel, very close to the outside edge). I'm thinking the outside edge placement is what caused it's doom. Rain was able to reach it easily. This seems like a better placement, especially if rotated 180 and the port near the ground.
