Nice video. I have that same power bank and it can only charge at 10 Watts. You could have charged two of them at the same time, even 3 of them and achieved the same result. It would have been better to use a power bank that supports 60 or 100 Watts of charging because these would have inputs of 45-60 Watts to recharge the power bank faster

Yeah takes a while. I was happy with the time the solar panels took in light of the time it takes to wall charge

but this FlexSolar Foldable 40 can be good with correct placing with no shading of panels.@@AndyLehman

I bought one after the wires broke in the folds in one I had of another brand. I've used it less than ten times and it already got a short in a fold.

If you bend each joint back and forth a dozen times and is good I will be surprised.

I'm trying to find a place to rewire the connections between the panels. After I just paid $90 for it from Amazon.

Hello, I have a question about the 40W Portable Solar Charger, is it possible to charge a 12v car battery via the DC port or will it only output 19v?
@AndyLehman

As the dc port has no charge controller you would not want to hook a battery directly to it

Use this with your solar panel, better than blinking lights on your brick.. INIU 140W Power Bank, 27000mAh High Capacity Laptop Portable Charger, USB C in&Out Tablet Powerbank, Smart Digital Display Phone Charge Compatible with iPhone 15, Samsung, iPad, MacBook, Laptop etc.

your test condition was total WRONG. You can see that grass is all over ground part of the solar system. Put it on flat ground, wood or simply cut paper box and put it on ground so not a "single piece of grass" is not shading solar system and you can get way better charging. Also you have to consider, that your cable can be low quality and can deliver only 9 - 10 wats to powerbank. Mostly powerbanks can receive 15 - 18 wats, but with correct cable. When you will have time, try to make video with correct conditions.

@@AndyLehman shorter is always better when solar charging, you get more loss the longer the cable, that's not a problem with a wall outlet, but it becomes a problem when using solar.
