ACOPOWER HY010-12M Mono Solar Panel for 12V Battery Charging RV Boat, Off Grid, 10W

I purchased the 200w panel to mount on top of the camper shell of my F150. It worked well for over 2.5 years keeping my EcoFlow RiverMax power station charged and running my 12v cooler. On a recent trip, the bypass diodes were burned out, possibly due to an incorrect connection. I contacted Acopower support to either order new diodes or at least find out the specifications of the diodes so that I could repair the panel myself as it was still in excellent condition otherwise. They shipped the new diodes for free and they arrived in just a few days. I soldered the new diodes in and the panel is back to working as before!

I had a 175 watt Renogy (original EOL175) and needed a second to wire in series on a camper. This one has the EXACT same volt/amps/max volt specs including EXACT dimensions. 4 mid mounting holes are identical. Renogy has 4 more on the ends so the OCD of not mounting exactly the same remains as does cosmetically the array is different (not as pure black face...only squirrels will know?) but mathematically they work identically in series, which is the challenge of modifying an install later. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CMCZV9J on the left, this on the right: Please don't judge me, 15 year old camper still in Winter storage and Dicor LAP came later ... but matching size & volts say risk it for parallel or series upgrades to match ;-) Only other option was entirely new pair and all new holes on the roof of an RV. NEVER a good plan B!

My rooftop solar water heating system with a 10-watt panel, needed help to pump water on cloudy days. I chose an ACOPower polycrystalline 25 watt solar panel because it has an attractive price, a long warranty. I also considered buying a similar rated monocrystalline, but since room was available for a physically larger solar panel, the extra cost was not justified. My order was promptly shipped with adequate packaging for a trip across country, and arrived in excellent condition. The frame is sturdy Aluminum, and has 4 pre-drilled holes that fit standard Z-brackets. The panel came prewired to a weather-sealed rear mounted junction box with power wiring pigtails and convenient MC4 connectors designed for the outdoors. The frame has tight depth dimensions inside, and required shorter bolts to fasten to the Z-brackets. Once connected, the panel performed as expected on cloudy days, with over twice the electric water pump power than I had before. Following my experience with this small panel, I contacted the ACOPOWER team, and found them responsive to my inquiries on other products.

Panels have reached maximum wattage rated during summer. No problems after several months.

Solid build and portable. Very easy to deploy.

Impressed, pure and simple. It's the middle of December at a latitude of 33.41 degrees north, on a partly cloudy day, and the panel is outputting about 200w. Nice and light, easily able to move around for my ground level install.

This 10W panel does indeed produce 10 Watts in full sun. Produces about 200mA in weak morning sun. Wires are a bit short. No mounting bracket is included. There is a blocking diode installed inside the small black cover. Works well with my small charge controller. Good value at $18. -Chris

They work good for my shed, but i was putting 2 in series and realized one of them never had the diode added on the backside under the plastic cover. I had a spare in the parts bin that was the correct one so I was able to install it myself but I shouldn't have had to. I'm not an electrical engineer, but i believe that diode helps protect the life of the panel when in series where one panel is shaded but the other is not.

I use them for remote controlled gates on farms.

A very good solid built product. I recommend this product.

works like charm great quality for the money

My order came very fast and we installed it on our sailboat to charge the battery. Amazingly it was easy to install and it started to charge right away.

Working great, will report back next season on its condition after leaving it outdoor. Was able to get 1.2A of charge current into a 18650 at Vmpp 17.5V at the input. When shaded, it dropped to 100-120mA, still very usable.
