How does this panel compare to the Eco-Worthy 100w panel for $63 recently?

I want to educate myself on solar panels, power stations, etc. What websites and YouTube channels can get me up to speed in minimal time?

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.
Ah that's good to know. I'll have to check to see if the fan is brushless. It would make my life easier not including the buck converter and just wire it directly. But yeah I'll have to think it over a bit more in terms of the liability aspect. Of course that never even crossed my mind! Thanks for the info!

Thanks OP, bought a couple. I'm putting together something for an off grid backyard studio.

So far I have a 100Ah LiFePO4 battery and a 2000W inverter. I'll need a solar charge controller... any recommendations? The HQST 40A was well reviewed by Hobotech recently, any others I should be looking at?
I've been looking to build something similar - was going to get this one: https://slickdeals.net/?sdtrk=iphone&apikey=1f4251c46ef8571a47cc1d83e580052b99991b97&api_key_id=68211991&sdpid=164067854&sdtid=16715744&sdfid=9&sdfib=1&lno=1&trd=200W%20system%20that%20includes%20a%2040A%20&pv=&au=&u2=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FRenogy-200-Watt-Volt-Monocrystalline%2Fdp%2FB06VY9DVY9%3Fref_%3Dast_sto_dp%26th%3D1

What inverter did you get? Finding a deal on a 2000W sine wave seems tough

Promo code PANELS0612 no longer valid. Seems deal is dead. But there is a 15% off, so $76 now.

That looks like a nice kit.

I bought a Renogy 2000W inverter. It was about $300, not really a slick deal but the reviews are pretty good.

I would say BougeRV might be a slightly better company, but they are both in the same "tier" Either will be fine.

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!
I have almost the same setup, running good for about 2 years (I've replaced the fan 1x). I have no voltage regulator, I just wired the solar panel directly to the fan. 100w panel and a cheap 14" car radiator fan. No voltage regulator. Boy does it move some air!

What do people plug this into? I like the idea but don't know where to start on this lol
There are so many things to go over! It depends on what you want to do. Are you just looking to charge your phone and laptop while out camping? One or two of these with something like the Bluetti EB3A or EcoFlow River 2 would be good.

Do you want to run a welder short term with an angle grinder? Here's a good video of Chuck Cassady installing a truck box on his bus, and he only went through the spare battery and not the internal one.

Here's Bob Wells using an air conditioner with one. It might also be the Anker.

I bought the Bluetti PS70 for $200 and the refurbished 160W EcoFlow portable solar panel for $180 on Black Friday. I haven't used it much, but the PS70 is pretty basic. It only has 5 bars and doesn't have full output, but that's just a spare unit for my primary one when I build it. I'm going to put a solar panel on my trailer and working on one for the bus.

If you need more power than one or two of these and plan on doing a larger system, just get larger solar panels. It'll save you in the end on wiring and components. That's what all the pros tell me, and their numbers add up. Like Will Prowse says, look at some older solar panels they swap out because someone wants more efficient ones. They still work, but might pull a little less power and cost less. Great for something like a shed, because it can help keep the light from hitting the roof and give a little buffer in the summer to save you from the heat.

Do you think the 9 bus bars matters? Because the Eco-Worthy only has 5-6 I think.

As a general rule, more bus bars will be less sensitive to shade but on a single 100 watt panel. You can usually avoid this by just moving the panel. Still no reason not to go for more at the same price point

Interesting. How did the first fan die if you don't mind me asking? I'm trying to replace the fan as little as possible because it's a pain in the ass to get to. I figured the regulator would help for stability and on cloudier days when the sun/voltage gets reduced as well. I guess if I buy the fan I'm looking at I could test it out for some time before actually installing it as well.

Also where do you have yours set up? In a shed like the other poster mentioned or coming from your attic like I want to do?

Not sure on how it died, it actually still worked, just got very noisy. It's just a cheap car radiator fan from Amazon. Could have been from too much voltage I suppose?
I'm lucky because it's pretty easy to get to and replace mine. It's in the attic, just next to the ladder from the garage. I also unplug it during the winter here in Vegas. Have another solar fan also, roof mounted from home depot for double ventilation.

I've been using this panel for three days to charge up the tenergy power station that was recently on here for 99 bucks. I'm able to get the tenergy to charge at 50W (which is 5W higher than the advertised 45W max charge of the power station) I bought a $10 MC4 to DC barrel connector to connect the solar panel to the power station off Amazon and everything is working great so far
