Why we recommend it

Two 100W panels are not the same size. This ZOUPW spreads its cells over a longer surface than the compact competitors, and surface area is what collects light when the sun is low or hazy. In good midday sun that makes little difference. In morning, evening or overcast conditions, the bigger panel keeps producing when smaller ones have dropped off. The cost is 9.48 lb and a long footprint that needs somewhere to lie.

Buying advice

Pick this if your panel will sit in one place at a campsite rather than travel on your back, and especially if you use it outside high summer. Area beats efficiency when the sun is poor.

Frequently asked questions

Why does size matter if the wattage is the same?
Rated wattage is measured in ideal sun. In weak light, more surface area keeps collecting when smaller panels fall away.
Is it hard to set up alone?
It's long rather than heavy. One person manages, but it's easier with two in wind.
Is it worth it for summer camping?
Less so. In strong midday sun a compact panel performs almost identically.
