I bought 4 of these panels and connected them in a series-parallel configuration with a decent MPPT charge controller. They're installed horizontally (not angled), so I expected around a 20% loss of power as a result. When the panels were new, the highest power recorded from my 400W array was 196W. Less than I had planned, but I could work with it. Within 6 months of putting the panels into service, array output had dropped to 40W peak. I disconnected and tested each panel, only to find peak full-sun outputs of my 4 "100W" panels to be 8, 7, 8, and 55W. Short-circuit currents of the 3 weak ones were less than 1.5A. Lesson learned: these panels probably output 75% of their rated wattage when they're working well, putting the price per watt somewhere around $1.50. Shop around and you'll find high-quality premium panels (Suniva, Panasonic) for pretty close to that same price point. Don't waste your money here.

i used the 20% coupon code twice already but if it works, should be $88.38 + tax or $44 per panel

Did you test the panels individually after getting them? If not, sounds like 3/4 were broken when they were only putting out 200 watts and then winter came and dropped it down to 70

I have two similar ones from another brand. Running them in parallel to charge an ecoflow river 2 pro. Just yesterday I was showing 217w around noon in the Florida direct sun.
