The USB-C output on the Solar Panel is rated to output max 5 Volt 3 Amps, which is 15 Watts. The USB-A output does 5V 2.4A which is 12 Watts, so it can charge two devices, 15W & 12W for a total of 27 Watts. What I'm understanding is it depends on what type of port, sometimes USB-C can supply 9V 3A (27 Watts), 15V 3A (45 Watts), etc.
Anywhere other than the mile high city Denver, would this not work correctly. Why didn't he plug two cords in from the panels to the Anker instead of the tablet also? It says you can plug in both
This solar panel could supply 5v 3 A (15W) max from type c and 5v 2.4 A (12W) max from type a. That is all! Or 15+12 = 27 W from both ports. So you could get 15 w MAX from one port during ideal conditions. During charging power station you get lower number. And you get your 7-8 W. I didn't get why you waited up to 30 W for your power station in that situation.)
Only 5-7 Watts output from a 30W-Panel? Lol. That is poor! You should get 21W out of this at least! Or 5 * 3 = 15W! 7W only means 3 panels out of 4 are DAMAGED/not working! For comparison: I have a 28W-Panel from a chinese High-quality brand, which gets you ~25W on 18V (about 90% efficiency). Which is really good allready... This panel costed about 50 Euro for 28W output. This panel is poor in shadowing-conditions, but when sun shines bright and without shadows you get a good power out of it! As soon as the smallest shadow shines on it, you get only 5W output. And at half shadow you nearly get like 1-2W out of it, which is not good. And i have another cheaper panel which only has 24W max. And it gets you around 16-20W on 18V output (it has 24V btw). So it´s not a standard 18V- or 21V-panel like others are. But it has a GOOD shadowing-output! Even in half shadow you get 10W out of it! It consists of 8 panels. Each panels has 2 cells on it. So in total 16 cells. This 24W-Panel is a specialized boating-/yacht-highvoltage-panel which has 3 volts more output than others with same size. Which is extremely good since it means you can charge for a much longer time in the afternoon, when sun is going down and voltages sink! These two are currently my most-used small panels. They are really, really powerful! I can easily charge a small 220Wh Powerstation with that small 24W- panel in just 10 hours! Assuming of course it´s sunny enough! I have another 8 other panels of different sizes and brands, though (1x 8W, 1x 120W, 1x 18W, 1x 30W, and another 4 panels with each 30W-output). Some are replacement-panels that i only rarely use. And i have a big Panel with 120W as well (which is really, really bad at shadowing-conditions, which is why i currently don´t use it, as there is not enough sun currently in my country).

Dude.. try this test with a Bifacial array. Something reflective along the bottom. I bet you would break 10w - interested to know!
Cool vid

Thanks for sharing.
Just got mine 2 days ago. Doesn’t charge shit. Problems abound. Won’t charge 522 or iPad or iPhone. Charges AirPods…….pathetic from my experience

May I know what’s the brand you bought for the 28w panel?
@@Xins93 That ’s a "Jing Guang" if i remember right (It’s blue!).
