Anyone seen this? Jackery Solar Saga Knockoff

[Moebius01]

I've been looking for a decent priced 100w panel to use as I'm just getting started, preferably without dropping a ton of coin since for a while at least my trips will be few and far between. I tried one that seemed to be slightly incompatible with the MPPT controller in the ToGo Power Advance units. No matter how much sun, it got 12 watts charging power. Hobotech had a video a year ago with a similar thing where the Rockpals seemed to have trouble charging Bluetti units while the Solar Saga had no problem, and it seemed to be the voltage wasn't quite good enough for the MPPT controller.

Came across this one on Amazon today. Pretty much a Solar Saga knockoff, but it seems a lot of times these things roll out of the same factory and just get different branding, so not sure what to think. Has anyone seen this? If it's a case of the same factory kind of thing, getting a Solar Saga 100 for about half the price is not a bad thing.

Weird, the link was there when I previewed along with the extra text which was basically just makes me a little nervous and wondering if anyone has seen it.

That’s pretty fishy. It definitely looks like the Jackery panel. However, they claim theirs is IP65 waterproof. I have the Jackery panel, and they make no such claim; in fact they caution that they are not even water resistant and should not get wet.

I would proceed with caution.

The reviews seem good. Not sure how it could be immersed. Hopefully this will help drive the price of other units down a bit:)

Currently unavailable, what was the price when it was available?

Think it was $169, but I didn't try it. I ended up getting Dexpole when it was on sale for $129, and it works solid.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if this rolled off the same assembly line as the Jackery units but with a different label. Or possibly units that didn't quite make whatever QA standards the Jackerys have.
