Hey everyone! I'm working on my solar setup for my van and I'm hoping to get some feedback. I'm planning to use two 200W solar panels connected in parallel to a Growatt portable power station. I just want to know if anyone sees any potential issues with this setup that I should be aware of, particularly regarding solar input or any other concerns. Thanks a lot!

The only issue I've heard about is with the panels themselves; there's some significant variance in performance from panel to panel. I came across a review where they tested this specific model, and it showed pretty high discrepancies. As for the Growatt power station, it's a solid brand, although they're not super renowned for portability. Just keep an eye on the efficiency ratings of your setup overall!
If you're open to alternatives, it might be worth looking for other solar panels too. Those eco-worthy panels you mentioned do have a more compact design, which can be a bonus for space-saving. If anyone has suggestions for other reliable solar panels, that would be great!
