EcoFlow  NextGen 160W Solar Panel

I finally had a day with some sun to get out and really test my EcoFlow Next Gen 160W panel. I was pleasantly surprised with the performance and ease of setup. At 11AM EDT (early October) I was able to peak at 130 watts input into my power station. I averaged 125-128 watts until my power station battery approached full when the MPPT slowed down the charging until my station was topped off. This is about 80% efficiency, which is about exactly what one should expect in real-world conditions and good sun. I specifically bought an EcoFlow portable panel, because I'd seen many positive reviews, and they're IP68 rated (waterproof and dust proof). The integrated sun dial was a definite plus as it helped me get the panel set at the optimum orientation to maximize solar input. The storage case is really nice too! I kept the foam padding included from shipping to pad the panel as it folds for storage. I will definitely buy another one of these panels, or a NextGen 220W panel as I expand my portable solar setup.

works great and easy to setup. Be careful and don’t bend the panels as they aren’t flexible. Solar guide is nice, i usually do “largest shadow” which works too. It’s sturdy and has a good cable length.

I got this panel in a delta pro bundle, this thing is high quality and feels built to last. So far it’s performed exceptionally well in my area with cloudy/hazy days. Whenever the sky clears up, it brings in power effortlessly.

I used my EcoFlow NextGen 160w portable solar panel today with my River 2 Pro for the first time. Setup and sun chasing was breeze with the low weight and integrated kick stands, where I peaked at 149w of solar input. And, I didn't even realize the panel has a built-in solar guide! This panel is really going to come in handy, as the River 2 Pro is ultra-versatile around the house, and while overlanding/camping. I am VERY happy with this product!

I got lucky and ordered this on sale and along with my ecocredits it made it super affordable. I was able to test it out this weekend at the lake and it charged up my Delta 2 pretty fast. I highly recommend this product from Ecoflow. We spend every weekend outdoors camping, kayaking and off-roading to remote sites with no power so having the Ecoflow delta 2, extra battery and 160 watt solar panel is great to have to power up all my needs.

143 watts on a clear day in the gulf coast. Didn't take me long to bend the mild steel kickstand while repositioning it. I am concerned the kickstand will damage the panel when folded so I will store it with the foam packing. Hooked up to a Delta 2. PS angle guide works well.

Bought 2 panels and couldn't be happier. Easy to transport and setup. Outstanding efficiency too! I was thinking I'd need the higher wattage versions but I'd say for now at least I'm standing pat with these two. Got them on sale so that was a nice bonus

Quickly set up panel to see what kind of power it had. Very please right out of the box. Easy to get aligned with built in kick stand.

If the white dote isn't hitting the sun, it's not charging. However it's the best investment on the face of the planet
