Over the course of a year, I have bought three Sun20C to charge my A2L Powerbank on the go. I am pleased with the portability and the flexibility of the individual solar panels, the build quality is quite good.
Coming to the technical side, I use the barrel output mostly, so I’ll share the readings of my Watt meter at around 11:00 oclock on a sunny day in Februrary in germany. Connected to the A2L with the setting on 20V, one Solar Panel reads 17V, 1,94A which equals to a around 34W. Chaining them all together with Y Cables, the reading comes to about 100W. Charging the A2L outside with all three panels takes about 2,5 to 3 hours at maximum sunlight.
Another thing I tried out was charging through a window indoors, catching the afternoon sun at around 15:00 oclock. This setup takes considerably longer and the Power is reduced by around half to around 13-15W per panel..
Like with all solar panels, light clouds reduce the power output slightly. When there are thicker clouds covering the sun, there isn’t any charging possible.
Overall I’m really pleased. I cant compare them to other solar panels because these are the only ones I own. For my use case on small camping trips they are quite perfect due to their size, weight and power delivery. I also use them regularly at home to charge my devices.

Le mien est accroché sur le balcon et il met environ, en été, 8 heures à charger un powerbank de 12’000 mAh. L’hiver c’est une autre histoire… Il résiste bien à la pluie mais je prends soin à ce que les connexions ne se mouillent pas. J’essuie aussi le panneau car la poussière qui se dépose dessus réduit les performances. Il est léger et peut facilement s’accrocher sur un sac si on fait de la rando. J’en suis très satisfait.

I purchased this alongside the A2 L power pack and it works very well. The unit is just larger than an A4 piece of paper which folds out to create a large solar panel which you can angle accordingly. There are holes allowing you to hang it off your backpack and charge it as you walk which I did a few times. The unit has a velcro band to hold the A2 power unit while charging keeping it out of the heat of the sun and nice and tidy. It is also lightweight and flexible making it easy to fit into your backpack when not in use.
To note: Lifepowr offered me a discount off the full price for my expedition. That said, I would have selected this kit either way so by no means has my review been influenced by the discount provided.

Did not charge my A2 in 6 hours like they claim, with normal lighting, I think you really need full sunlight for this.
-
I tested the output coming from the controller in direct sunlight and had readings over 1.16A at 19.1V, about 22 watt output. So well performing over spec of 20 watt. Very good performance.

A great design to provide the largest solar surface area possible for the size. It’s slightly flexible meaning you can easily get it in and out of your rucksack, while the loops allow you to tie it onto the outside of your backpack to charge the A2 while on the move. And, the convenient zipped up pocket on the back ensures the battery pack will not fall out while charging. Highly recommended!

we use 3 of these combined with the chaining cables. works well. has helped us out on multiple trips in many diff conditions. keeps our rig charged during multi-day trips. recommend!

Best panel I owned so far. Replaces my previous Goal Zero Nomad panel, this one is lighter, higher power and less expensive!! Thanks guys
