Features:- ECO-WORTHY's flexible solar panel has good flexibility and can be installed on RVs, boats, cabins, tents, cars, trucks, trailers, yachts, roofs, or any other irregular surfaces
- Using advanced polymer materials, it is 70% lighter than traditional glass solar panels, making transportation and installation easier
- The junction box and diodes have been pre-installed, and are sealed and waterproof. The solar panel comes with a pair of 2.9Ft cables, which can connect multiple panels in series or in parallel
- 4 metal-reinforced installation holes are pre-drilled on the edge of the solar panel, which is easy to install. It can be fixed by adhesive, silicone, double-sided tape, cable tie or Velcro, which is very suitable for non-permanent installation
Community Reviews
These flexible ECO-WORTHY panels are being used as a lightweight, versatile solar charging setup, with strong value at about 31 cents per watt. Real-world output lands around 100 watts per panel in good sun, and a four panel setup has been reported averaging about 360 watts and roughly 1100 watt hours over a couple of weeks. They work well in series with charge controllers and battery banks, including portable power stations. The main cautions are durability concerns for flexible panels, some reports of lower output than other brands, and at least one dead arrival. A practical low cost option if flexibility matters more than peak output.
Common Questions (5)
Real-world output is often around 100W per panel in good sun, with some setups reaching 102W or about 130W only under very favorable conditions. A 4-panel setup mounted vertically on a southwest-facing wall averaged about 360W and roughly 1100Wh over a couple of weeks.
Yes. Solar panels can charge batteries through a solar charge controller without any inverter, and an inverter is only needed if you want 120VAC output. For DC-only loads, the controller is the key component.
MC4 is the common solar connector standard, and many solar generators include the needed MC4 adapter. When wiring panels in series or parallel, the total voltage and current must stay within the charge controller's maximum input.
Their efficiency per unit area is about the same as rigid panels, but durability is the main concern for flexible panels. This deal is also cheaper per watt than similar-sized rigid panels found by commenters.
Common mounting methods include tape for temporary installs and flat-RV-roof mounts for more permanent setups. The panels are very light, and one user even cable-tied a panel to a car roof, though not for driving.

I've been averaging about 1100 watt-hours of energy collected by these 4 panels over the past couple of weeks I have had them installed. These panels feed a charge controller which charges a battery bank that feeds backup power to an Eco-Flow Delta 3 Plus via one of its XT60i input ports. Not bad for $160, in my opinion.
The advantage of these panels is the light weight and versatility in mounting in different use cases.

The main concerns are with the durability of the flexible panels. OTOH, this deal is cheaper per watt than any similar sized rigid panel that I can find.
