Cons

Solar has become an important option in today’s power needs, especially while using battery generators, being off-grid outdoors, or dealing with a natural disaster. For outdoor enthusiasts, a portable power option is often the best choice. I prefer solar options that travel well, and the LiTime 100-Watt Monocrystalline Portable Solar Panel checks all of the boxes.

The LiTime 100-Watt Monocrystalline Portable Solar Panel weighs only 8.82 lbs and folds up to only 25.51″ x 21.26″. It comes with a convenient carry bag and is IP67 waterproof. The size, weight, and case make it easy to store and carry.

Once out of the bag, the LiTime 100-Watt Monocrystalline Portable Solar Panel includes a carry handle and a nice-sized storage pocket. This pocket is perfect for keeping adapters and accessories ready to use.

The MC4 connectors will be stored here and prepared to connect to any device. I like that the company included standard MC4 connectors keeping it compatible with more devices right out of the box.
