Read: 12 mins. The Jackery SolarSaga 100 solar panel previously impressed me with its rigid body, light weight, and quick deployment. However, there were times where I wanted my higher-capacity power stations (like the Goal Zero Yeti 1500x or Jackery Explorer 1000) to be charged more quickly for a variety of reasons. The solution: multiple solar panels or a single, high-capacity one. In this review, I break down the Pros and Cons of having two 100W panels versus one 200W, the Goal Zero Nomad 200. I also explored how to use the Nomad with other companies' power stations (like Jackery) and was surprised how easy it was.

Review: Jackery SolarSaga 100W Solar Panel (Gen 2 vs 3)

Read: 8 mins. Jackery impressed me with their Explorer 1000 battery power station and its excellent customer service. I complemented it with two SolarSaga 100W solar panels for camping and in case we had a power outage. That was exactly what happened one day: we lost power for an ENTIRE day. Were the panels able to produce enough energy to get us through the whole day working from home?

Review: Rockpals 80W Solar Panel

Read: 4 mins. Rockpals impressed me with their 500W portable battery generator when I put it through some tests against equivalent Goal Zero and Suaoki products recently. As a camper and survivalist, I naturally wanted to get a solar panel to charge the generator with when spending time outdoors for an extended period. I took a look at the Rockpals 80W solar panel and was surprised by the results.
