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.
