Great Item and good value
Fairly lightweight. Charges battery pack really well. I'm not sure about the sunshine level or timing, because I tend to leave it outside the tent charging the battery pack and it's usually charged by the time I return even when there isn't much sunshine. Great value for money.

Decent charger works well
Nice form factor which I really like and good build, it performs pretty well, in August in Scottish sun I was able to get around 33 watts max just thru the USB C port so with the DC port I’m sure u could get 40 watts on a good day I plan to use it to charge my Anker solix power bank at a festival while camping and with my tests so far it performs well

An actual proper portable solar panel! Type c!
I was pleased to find that this panel does not have glass panels. This is a serious plus as they live in my backpack, they even have a little flex to them. The panels are actually embedded in what seems to be a solid rubber so they don’t get ruined by rain! When out in full sun this panel charges my phone quickly on a type c fast charge cable, impressive. Over all I would say the panel is great value for money, it’s robust and can handle the outdoors easily. Folds up to the size of an a4 sheet of paper, just thicker obviously. If 40w is all you need look no further, it’s been helping me for months. Lastly, if it’s a little overcast they still deliver power, just not under full thick rain cloud!

Decent solar panel, gains around 25 - 31w
I have used this to charge a Anker Prime 27,650 mAh Powerbank, it charges at around 25w which isn’t 40 but it’s still good. (I have only used the USB-C and USB-A, I am yet to use the DC 5521 (next review I will have). The output is more that what is said by FlexSolar which is great, no complaints there. It is a little expensive but for the purpose of being portable, it’s great. Very easy to use, it even has a red light which activates when the solar panel receives enough light to create electricity. Updated Review with DC & Anker C200: Yesterday, I charged 90% in a full day which adds up to 54,000mAh / 60,000. Keep in mind I also charged a full phone which adds up to around 3,500mAh. The solar panels are pretty decent, on a good day, in a good position you could get up to 31w through the DC cable. (It is a DC5521) I do consistently get around 25w in full sun, no clouds at around 90 degrees. It is a decent panel which does require strong amounts of sunlight. If you have the extra £10 (when on sale) I would definitely prefer to get the 60w rather than this 40w since the output is around 62% than what is claimed.

Not very reliable!
Broke after a week, was mounted on a 60 degree wooden pole and stopped working shortly after. No rain during this period.

Oh What Fun! Charges in the SUN! [oops, yeh, that was a bit of cr%p poetry - sorry!]
Bought this device a few weeks back, during a brief September Sunny Spell. It worked great - happily driving a USB fan, and charging my devices while I was using them in the garden. BUT - just like when (as a teenager), I was given my first Golf Umbrella, and then it didn't rain for about 3 months (or so it seemed), the day after this solar cell arrived, and I gave it the first testing, the Sun went on its hollibobs, and we had weeks of grey skies, and drizzle/rain/worse. Hey, that's life. But the IMPORTANT bits for YOU: 1) It WORKS GREAT - if you have the sunshine! 2) It has USB-A Socket, and NOT some bespoke cable or connector, so it WILL work with ALL your stuff 3) Seems VERY tough, and a total Dead-Cert addition to my Holiday EDC And come next Summer, if the SUN returns - also end-of-Garden duty. Actually, I kinda just love it. Everything it should be, but nothing more. 5 stars with sparkly FX!

Awesome piece of kit for camping.
Great piece of kit. Does exactly what it promises. Fast charges all of my devices in hazy sunshine and slow charges in slight shade (see photo 2). Also slow charges in dull cloudy weather, if you're desperate for some charge to make a call, etc. Those who say these don't work must not be placing them at an optimal angle to the sun. Make sure that you monitor the sun's position and use the carabiner hooks to mount accordingly. I've just kept all of my devices running through the Isle of Man TT in very changeable conditions and would strongly recommend this product 👌🏻

Bonne efficacité. M'a permis de garder tous mes appareils électroniques chargés oendnt un voyage de 6 semaines. Assez robuste pour les activités de plein air.

Just what I was looking for to take backpacking, it works very well for a lightweight compact system. It charged my cell phone to 87% in less than a day, and my tiny flashlight in about two hours. Also if you were ever facing a prolonged power outage it would keep the flashlights running indefinitely.

De kwaliteit is goed, hij haalt misschien niet de 10 Watt maar kom daar redelijk in de buurt. Achter glas onder de juiste hoek kwam ik al tot 6,5 watt. Buiten in directe zonlicht op zo'n 7,5 watt. Deze waarde is al eerder aangehaald en klopt dan ook

Wij hebben deze zonnecel aangeschaft voor het kamperen met de tent. Wij gebruiken daar nooit stroom. Nu met deze uitvouwbare zonnencellen, kunnen wij onze powerbank opladen en daar weer mee al onze telefoons, reader's en elektrische tandenborstels opladen. Na ontvangst heb ik de zonnecellen even getest en in ongeveer 2 uren was de powerbank (22800) opgeladen. Was niet constant stroom. We zijn dus zeer tevreden.
