If the Harbor Frt panel holds up like their solar security lights(about 6-9 months) then I would pass on it. Spend a little more and get a Renogy or other brand name system.

I was at REI in Hillsboro yesterday and they have two used Ecoflow 160 watt portable panels for $220 each. I don’t know enough about that particular panel to recommend it, but it seems sturdy.

I was at Costco (here in Boise) the other day and they had some portable solar panels.  I didn't pay much attention to what they were/are but I'm headed there today and will take a closer look and snap a photo.  Worth checking it out if you are looking for solar panels.

For those using a portable panel, what guage wire do you use for the extension? I see gauges ranging from 10-16. I am inclined to use 10. What are your experiences?
Thanks
