I am curious. If you wanted to use this in my backyard for pool parties with lights and music and stuff plugged in how many of these panels would be good? Also isjust getting one of those power stations all you need? Just hook these up to the power station to charge it and the batter from the power station runs all your power?

You can calculate this by figuring out what all you're going to be plugging in, and how long you'd want to run it for.
If you've got, for example, 150W worth of string lights, and maybe an old Android phone running Spotify, etc., we'll call that 200W of power. If you want to run that for 8 hours straight, 200*8 = 1600Wh, so you'd be in the market for roughly a 2000Wh battery that supports at least 100W solar input (if you don't want the battery to bottleneck your charging). Your solar panel will charge up your battery while the sun is shining so it's ready to go for your pool party.
This is my understanding at least, I'm sure someone will correct me if wrong
Complete solar n00b here...So this plugins into a power station, recharges that, and the power station provides power. I don't need to buy anything else, correct? No inverter, etc.
yes, if you have a bluetti or jackary. there is a cable you may need to connect to it.
I've never dipped my toe into the solar panel subject but would like to learn more. I know I can pull up tons of videos on YT but does anyone have a recommendation of someone that knows what they're doing? I'd like to learn from a well versed person instead of watching videos of first timers.
Will Prowse on YouTube has some great first time/basics videos—you can't beat him
I would like some solar advice from all the experts. I have a dead ac attic exhaust fan with a new motor to replace it with. I was thinking of swapping it out entirely for a giant 12VDC fan. The one I'm looking at uses about 80W total and I already have a 100W panel. My plan was to only have the fan running when the sun was out so no battery or charge controller necessary. But in place of that I was thinking of adding a small voltage regulator to the panel output to keep a stable 12VDC. The regulator I found on Amazon is a dual buck converter that has a 9-40V range.
This setup should work in theory. But I was hoping to get some reassurance that it should work or advice as to where I might be wrong. Thanks in advance!

Yep, you're on the right track. If this were for a shed or greenhouse and the fan was brushless, you probably wouldn't need the buck converter as the motors can take higher voltages fine. The buck converter just keeps the insulation from getting warm. But the key to think about for a primary home fan though is liability. If you are "rigging" something, it might not be smart from an insurance or inspection standpoint, especially upon resale of the home. It's not worth the potential red flag when someone else spots it.
