Use in our motorhome in addition to the permanently roof mounted solar panel to maintain the battery during darker months or when roof panel covered in snow, when solar energy is poor. Works very well.
I use this to charge up my batteries for my CB radio’s. What else is there to say, it charges batteries. Works better when there’s full sun but also works when cloudy.
Nice sturdy panel. I used angled shelf brackets to mount it to wall to keep a low profile. Overcast rainy day and giving a nice charge to my battery. Cable is not very long for my purposes as need 20ft plus so bought an extra cable to reach the battery. Excellent buy.
I bought this to keep a battery charged on my boat. It works, I haven’t had it long enough to test over the winter, but all through autumn the battery is at 100%. Its partner is at 86% over the same period without any charge. So I’m really happy.
Opened box connected push connectors and crocodile clips and charging started. Lead long enough to get outside to sun but not too long to give voltage drop issues and small panel. Was aware it was only a 10w unit so basically a trickle charge but over 4 days it kept the battery topped up to cope with lights water pump and phone/Tablet x6 charged. We had lots of sunshine and low usage of lights but did the job nicely. You would want higher wattage panel in poorer / shorter sunlight but great trouble free solution at a reasonable price.

Bought this to trickle charge my motorcycle.
It’s cheaply made construction, but it works great, simple connection, screwed solar panel to garage roof, ran the wires to the inside
Connected controller. Produces 19volts on a sunny day, 12.5 on overcast day, enough to trickle charge.
When battery reaches 13volts the unit cuts off.
Very happy

mates usig it to power lighting in a garage charges car batt from flat 11v in 2 days with mild sun quicker in full direct, sturdy stand and a balance charger included with enough cable to line i
Arrived in good time. The quality of the visual circuitry looked a little sketchy and the stand a bit flimsy. However I connected it up to my dinghy battery and after 3 days of even full weather the green charged light was up. It’s been sat in the dinghy for 6 weeks now and appears to be working well. It’s a fair price for what it is. I’d buy another if this failed in the future from the same supplie

Very pleased with this as keeps the leisure batteries topped up on the boat over winter!
Even gives out good voltages in low light – have seen up to 13.5 volts in sunshine behind the glass above the bulkhead!

Sturdy water proof , running on a 7AH battery ok , wish i’d bought a bigger battery and the 20W version! can recommend and have personally done so to friends
Bought this to charge an electric fence battery. So easy to set up and connect. My battery was very low when I connected it and I also left the battery connected to the fence. It started charging instantly and had fully charged the battery in two days even though it was still connected to the fence. Really impressed with this charger.

When I used the charge controller that came with it, the battery did not charge at all.. with a good charge controller, the panel is fine.
Update after just over a year of use: I have increased the rating from 3 to 4 – I’m not using the controller because it’s useless and the mount has started to rust (that’s what drops from 5 to 4) – However, the panel regularly gives me a full 20 Watts through a good charge controller – and I’m regularly harvesting between 50 and 120 w/h per day.
If you just think of this as a solar panel and use a different charge controller you won’t go wrong.

I set this item up in my conservatory to test charge my caravan battery, It was 13.3v to start , after 1 day it read 14.4. I was very happy with the outcome as there wasn’t much sun. I bought this to keep the battery topped up whilst the caravan was unattended on a seasonal pitch. Setup is very simple just follow the instructions. I would recommend this product powoxi 10v solar panel charger ki
I use this to provide electricity to my storage shed. It charges a 12volt car battery.
When some reviewers suggested the controller didn’t work I partially discharged the battery before connecting.
It works fine, charges quite quickly, reducing to a trickle as the battery charges.
The green led is the one to watch. Off while the battery is charging, On once working voltage reached, just a trickle charge from this point.
I use this https://amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01N53MABJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to monitor the battery and charging.

Quick and easy to install. Providing a trickle charge to a Leisure battery which powers an electric fence. Too soon to know how well it performs over time and through the winter.

Bought it to keep my car battery topped up during the current lockdown. Had a flat battery a couple of times as I was only doing short journeys. It charged a completely flat battery enough to start a 1.7l Diesel engine in just over a day. Leaving it on now so I need not worry.
Looking to go “off-grid” in the near future, so wanted to get to grips with basic Solar/alternative energy supply installation. rather than buying a whole load of expensive equipment and parts, settled for a basic panel, controller, lights and storage set up. cost in total on Amazon for this and a set of 12v LED lighting was about 30 quid, paid 16 for a LAB cell from batteries direct and works fantastic.

I’ve connected this to the batteries (2x20ah buggie batteries) and use them to power my Chinese desiel heater. It works a treat with reasonably fast trickle charging.
I liked everything about this portable solar panel. is very well made and was so easy to set up, no complicated wiring all wire connections just push together I would recommend this product.
Great solar panel, works very well in cold and wet conditions provided a good level of power even in winter through out cloudy and dull days. The controller is utter crap I ended up removing the controller and added a blocking diod as to prevent the battery from discharging. Used to keep a Harley Davidson motorbike battery alive when not in use and it does a fantastic job at keeping the battery charged .

I bought this to use with our caravan. The solar panel stores the needed electricity we need to charge the quad bike that we take with us. Also the electric scooter. Things which would drain the electric we use with the hook up on the caravan site. It’s a great essential for the kids as they need to be kept entertained
Use in our motorhome in addition to the permanently roof mounted solar panel to maintain the battery during darker months or when roof panel covered in snow, when solar energy is poor. Works very well.
I use this to charge up my batteries for my CB radio’s. What else is there to say, it charges batteries. Works better when there’s full sun but also works when cloudy.
Got a leasure battery and led lights to take them off grid, this charges them a treat!

Opened box connected push connectors and crocodile clips and charging started. Lead long enough to get outside to sun but not too long to give voltage drop issues and small panel. Was aware it was only a 10w unit so basically a trickle charge but over 4 days it kept the battery topped up to cope with lights water pump and phone/Tablet x6 charged. We had lots of sunshine and low usage of lights but did the job nicely. You would want higher wattage panel in poorer / shorter sunlight but great trouble free solution at a reasonable price.

It’s cheaply made construction, but it works great, simple connection, screwed solar panel to garage roof, ran the wires to the inside
Connected controller. Produces 19volts on a sunny day, 12.5 on overcast day, enough to trickle charge.
When battery reaches 13volts the unit cuts off.
Very happy

Arrived in good time. The quality of the visual circuitry looked a little sketchy and the stand a bit flimsy. However I connected it up to my dinghy battery and after 3 days of even full weather the green charged light was up. It’s been sat in the dinghy for 6 weeks now and appears to be working well. It’s a fair price for what it is. I’d buy another if this failed in the future from the same supplie

Well made,charges the electric fence battery on our horse paddock very well.
Working well had to make a waterproof box for controls as needed for outside charging battery for electric fence
Does what it says leave my bike battery on it until charged and its works nicely
Even gives out good voltages in low light – have seen up to 13.5 volts in sunshine behind the glass above the bulkhead!

Used to trickle charge battery for electric fencing. Woulld recommend as the battery remains charged for a long period, just need some more sunshine!
When I used the charge controller that came with it, the battery did not charge at all.. with a good charge controller, the panel is fine.
Update after just over a year of use: I have increased the rating from 3 to 4 – I’m not using the controller because it’s useless and the mount has started to rust (that’s what drops from 5 to 4) – However, the panel regularly gives me a full 20 Watts through a good charge controller – and I’m regularly harvesting between 50 and 120 w/h per day.
If you just think of this as a solar panel and use a different charge controller you won’t go wrong.

When some reviewers suggested the controller didn’t work I partially discharged the battery before connecting.
It works fine, charges quite quickly, reducing to a trickle as the battery charges.
The green led is the one to watch. Off while the battery is charging, On once working voltage reached, just a trickle charge from this point.

It is used for my trailer tent it is the most useful item in my trailer it keeps my battery topped up grea
This product was a bit bigger than I thought but it works very well , my car and van batteries have never been so full.
Nice it of kit, very easy to setup, worked immediately out of the box
I’ve connected this to the batteries (2x20ah buggie batteries) and use them to power my Chinese desiel heater. It works a treat with reasonably fast trickle charging.
This product was exactly what I needed. Charges the cast when garaged, it was easy to install. Looks the part when set up!! Really very impressed
Works very well so far, only disappointment the stability from the fixings, mine blow over in the high wind.
Easily however could have done with slightly longer cables. Appears to be providing trickle charge to my bike however time will tell.
