Cost per actual watt is still lower for the Renogy. I'd also trust Renogy more than Harbor Freight.

I'm not advertising here and just found some random link to show you. Portable solar panels normally offer the adapters along with it and are foldable, much easier to carry around and even have legs for tilt.

Any info helps. The ac uses 115 volts. The 100W renogy says it makes 500Wh a day. So i assume even with a full charge generator and then instant energy from the solar panel i should be good for a few hours no?

Thanks im just trying to see what i can do to take away some of the electricity strain from the ac unit. I was thinking even a 200W renogy panel would be good. It states 200wh per hour so if i get sunlight for 5-8 hours it would still only be up to 1600kw. Which is still under your estimate.
I cant yet afford 2 300-400w panels. But question for ya. Would it still be worth it for me if i did end up just using the 200wh panel for a few hours a day to minimize the power consumption used? I still feel like i could maje it work but id have to continually unplug and plug back in the ac unit when generator is dried out.
Again thanks!

If you live in a hot climate with a lot of rain at some point during the year you could collect that water and run a pump up to a drip tube on your roof and cool down your roof & your whole house/room that is above that section of roof.

We have my ac set to 72-73 and yeah it only turns on when it goes above so its not on 24/7 technically since it stops and waits til it gets hotter again.
can I just hook up to this solar panel system without buying anything extra?
And how many panels I need for 4 hours sunlight for this powerbank? Thanks.

I would definitely recommend getting a LiFePO4 battery instead of Lithium Ion, they will last far longer in terms of lifespan.

Portable power/solar have their place, but try throwing a power meter on that AC and see what it costs to run and then calculate what it will cost to buy a panel, mount it, wire it and the cost of the ecoflow. It might take years to realize this savings.
These small panels and lithium battery combos really are best in places where no other power is available (sheds, motorhomes, boats, camping, offgrid). And for power hungry applications it is more economical to go with larger panels.

There's a lot of comments in this thread that make is sound like hooking up solar panels is easy peezy. I would encourage people who are interested in doing this to Google Will Prowse solar and listen to his youtube channel and his web page. You need to have the proper fuses / breakers in place, etc.

If you are near power don't waste your money on Solar panel and battery thinking it will save you money. You can maybe get 1kw of energy for 2+ days of direct sunlight on a flat roof with this 100watt solar panel. 1kw is just an average of cost of .18 cents of energy produce by home electricity.
