That&#8217;s what it pulled in real sunlight \u2014 and it&#8217;s the reason I&#8217;m officially done hauling glass panels on the road.<br \/>I unbox the ZOUPW 450W, run real-world output tests on the Bluetti Elite 300, put it through partial-shade and tree-canopy shade testing, and walk you through the deploy\/pack-up stand system that&#8217;s honestly worth half the price of the panel on its own. If you boondock, camp, overland, or keep a preparedness kit, this is the portable solar panel you must have in your life!<br \/>(Although the 450W panel still performs reasonably well under partial shade, ZOUPW does not recommend long\u2011term exposure to shading. Prolonged shading can cause localized heating and may damage the panel over time.)<\/p>\n<p>Buy the ZOUPW 450W Folding Portable Solar Panel you saw in this video: <a href=\"https:\/\/zoupw.com\/collections\/all-product\/products\/450-watt-portable-solar-panel?ref=TATFT\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/zoupw.com\/collections\/all-product\/products\/450-watt-portable-solar-panel?ref=TATFT<\/a> <br \/>Be sure to use the code: THERESATRICKFOR at checkout!<br \/>OR buy from Amazon: <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4sS1aOw\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/4sS1aOw<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Buy the ZOUPW 350W Folding Portable Solar Panel: <a href=\"https:\/\/zoupw.com\/collections\/all-product\/products\/350-watt-portable-solar-panel-n-type-16bb?_fid=c0bda6361&#038;_pos=1&#038;_ss=c&#038;ref=TATFT<br\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/zoupw.com\/collections\/all-product\/products\/350-watt-portable-solar-panel-n-type-16bb?_fid=c0bda6361&#038;_pos=1&#038;_ss=c&#038;ref=TATFT<br<\/a> \/>Be sure to use the code: THERESATRICKFOR at checkout!<br \/>OR buy from Amazon: <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/48EUNHh\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/48EUNHh<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Watch my full review of the 350W ZOUPW Folding Portable Solar panel: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3jEOLOLOEps\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/3jEOLOLOEps<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Buy the Bluetti Elite 300: <a href=\"https:\/\/tidd.ly\/4speryd\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/tidd.ly\/4speryd<\/a> <br \/>Code: TATFT8OFF (8% off for the Elite300 series) <br \/>OR buy on Amazon: <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4b92Vjr\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/4b92Vjr<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Watch my lawn care playlist: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PL-2uuHDasQcrmWdVhxqQlcJK_-CZX6P1n\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PL-2uuHDasQcrmWdVhxqQlcJK_-CZX6P1n<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>NEED HELP?
