To start with, it’s important to know what camping equipment you have that needs to be charged. Then, figure out how much energy they use. Multiply the rated power by the time they need to work every day. Plus them together is the amount of electricity you need to consume per day.

How to choose suitable solar panel?

For example, if you need to consume 2000Wh per day, and in good weather conditions, we can operate the solar panel at its optimal state for 5 hours per day, then the solar panel needs to provide 400W of input power to the power station per hour. Considering that the charging loss is usually 20%, so a 500W solar panel is suitable!

Solar Panel Power=( Power Consumption(Wh) Per day/5 Hours)/0.8

The portable solar panel is made for portable power stations, which is great for long camping trips. This kind of solar panel works with power stations that have a capacity of 1.25 to 2 kWh. If you want to power more things, then this high-power solar panel is better for you, like ones that have 400W or more.

You can also choose a solution that matches the devices you want to charge. Don’t forget to think about how long you’ll be traveling, how much time you’ll be camping, and how many people will be with you.
