My solar arrays are all 200w as I don't want to deal with bigger and heavier 400w panels.
I have 16 200w Eco Worthy right now(their latest ones) and they are great.
These will go over 200w in the optimal condition. I get around 2600w of the rated 3120w during the summer right now.
I've been trying to add to my older 200w array so I gave these a try.( I bought 4)
The reason why is that these are smaller. 26 inch width which will fit the Eco Worthy solar racks.
So far they are great. 3 of the tested on the solar meter at around 190w-210w(these are optimal condition).
The one stinker only got my around 160w. I'm going to try and get a replacement for this one.
For the price and the size, the results are outstanding so I just bought 4 more.
If you know 200w like I do, good 200w panels are around 30 inches in width.
The cheaper ones that are narrower(26 inch) are either much longer(like the Eco) or they don't produce much.
I said if they get over 170w on my meter, I would be happy and I got more than that.
BTW the LINK for this is not that cheap.
For me it's like $70/$140 but AE is weird like that.
There's several link to the same items from the same store at different prices.
If you know how to work AE, you can find the link with the lowest price.
UPDATED with a picture with both of these panels and the newer Eco W split face 195w panels side by side.
These 2 I found that are best inexpensive 200w you can find.
These are my Eco W 195 panels. 16 of them.
I get on average over 10 kwh per day and a full sunny day will get me 14kwh
I don't move them around so I don't actually get full sun on these array until 11am.
I'll post pictures of the Aeternasol when I get them up. I have 8 of them now.
Looks identical as my last 4 but the MC4 connectors are different.
Took them right out of the boxes and started measuring them.
Again, they are tested well ranging from 185w to 220w(yeah this one right out of the box was 222w but it dropped to ~212 and stayed around there). I was shocked actually.
Remembered I took them right out of the box and using a solar meter but it doesn't represent the real numbers.
Once the panels get hot, the efficiency will decrease and the actual MPPT reading will be a little less.
For the size and the price, the results are fantastic. I love the sizes as 4 of these will fit my rack.
No clue what the longevity will be like.
Let me point out that the specs for these panels are 25.18 Voc 23.04 Vmp and 8.68 Imp.
What I get from my meter from all the good ones are around 21 Vmp and 9.6 Imp so amperage are higher and voltage are lower.

Voc of a solar panel increases as the temperature decreases.
25.18V is measured at +25C/+77F
There is also a tolerance +/- on that 25.18V
Should work to about -4F give or take. You'll need the manufacturer's numbers to calculate.
You'll need to buy the adapters shown on page 6.
The S2000 has shitty solar inputs but you don't need to wire the 2 panels in parallel(aka needing adapter).
Using the branch adapter to wire the 2 panels in parallel would be a waste because the S2000 only allow up to 12.5 amps.
Wiring in parallel would put the panels at ~18 amps.
You just need to buy a XT60 => MC4 cable. 12 awg cable is fine and should be cheaper.
Wire the 2 panels in series, then hook up the + and - and then XT60 to the S2000.
Wiring in series would put the panels VOC to around 50v(the S2000 allow 60v) and that leaves you plenty of room even if the panels jump in voltage.
In theory, the 2 panels should be running around 40v-42v at ~ 9 amps which should get you around 350w to 380w depending if you get the good panels or not. At the worst case scenario, you should still be getting 320w from the 2 panels.

It's a bummer Anker doesn't include at least the XT60i to MC4 cable. I guess they thought many people don't buy panels.
Then buy the XT60i --- MC4 from Anker.
Edit: I just refreshed the page and it worked. Thanks op.
