PowerFilm 50W Foldable Solar Panel Charger

I will clarify this one. I did call manufacturer to confirm this, Powerfilm does *NOT* manufacture a 50 watt panel. They did manufacture a batch of 60 watt panels that did not meet output specification and instead of throwing them out, they printed some new product labels and derated them to 50W. The physical specifications are identical to that of the 60W (size weight etc), but output is less, the actual measured output from these typically varies between 50-60W. The 60W panels usually have a MINIMUM output of 60W. Unless you need a guaranteed 60W (3.5-3.6A), these are being sold at half the cost per watt of a 60W panel. You could literally buy two for the same price of a 60W and get at least 100W output. At the price, this is a no-brainer.

Unfortunately it looks like the price has jumped up a couple hundred dollars.

to those who bought it when it was $368 you got a deal.

I have used my 50W panel (bought 2) for a while and it has worked great.

Output on par with the Brunton Solaris which is more expensive.

Major solar output for the buck. I highly recommend getting this portable 50 watt solar charger. Not sure if they are going to offer more, but worth snapping up for under $400.

This is not a correct itemlet me explain.

The photo indicates a 60w powerfilm panel.

If the photo is correct or not, powerfilm product line does not offer a 50w version of the folding panels.

So it begs the question: What is it? Well I did not order it just to find out (I do have every model available).

My guess: it is a 60w version that has less than rated output, and perhaps powerfilm company is liquidating them for that reason, but I am only speculating. So if someone actually purchases this item, give some feedback please!

-Unfortunate that amazon does not facilitate contacting the seller like ebay before purchase.

BUT: if it is powerfilm, it is very highly rated by me. If it is powerfilm it will output 16volts, and at 50watts (if indeed it is 50w) the current will be about 3 amps. Again it is distressing that this information is not published, along with the model (which all powerfilm products have).

Furthermore: The WEIGHT of this item correlates with the 60w version (model F15-3600)

That's my 2cents worth.
