I had an opportunity to use my new portable solar panel during a work trip last week. Pleased with the performance and ease of use. The Huckleberry Honey ale wasn't bad either.Components:Renogy 100W solar panelWindyNation adjustable solar panel mountAnderson Power SB50 connectors and bootsRenogy 30' 10ga cablesBitter Root Brewery Huckleberry Honey Ale

I just purchased one also. 100 watt Renogy suitcase from Amazon. $280. Works extremely well but the real test will be with my TC and compressor fridge!!

One of my reasons for getting another (portable) solar panel was to recharge my 100AH battery "more betta" during the day so that my compressor fridge didn't get too near the low voltage shutdown.It came close to shutting down in the mornings before the horizontal roof-top solar panel started getting enough sun to charge the battery.

I've had several portable panels and just bought a new Renogy 120W recently. I like the ability to park where you want (in the shade) and still be able to generate energy, something you can't do when it's on the roof.

I just installed solar but I put it on the roof, depends on your use of course but we don't really stay put enough to make use of a portable one. I also like that I get some charging while driving.
