Dokio 160, budget solar panel for car camping.

I ordered same one and it does say 160 watts and further in the descriptions it says 150 watts. I’m fine with that as long as I get a new item. If I can get at least 90 to 100 watts to charge my Bluetti EB3A I’ll be content.

You're measuring the voltage in open circuit, connect it up and get it charging a battery, then take the voltage and it will have dropped to roughly Vmp.

This is all I needed to see to not push the trigger on this product.

Test? No!

You have to set the battery type in the controller before connecting a battery B01 for lead acid, B02 for Lith ion and B03 for Lith Fosf

As soon as you measured it and said its not even the right size i started laughing.. It is the correct one at 88"x21" , did you think each panel was 88"s ? Plus you kind of had no idea what you were doing, thank god you were only messing with DC, if that was AC you woulda been fried.

I was just going to buy one till I saw this!

You should attached your battery into the charge controller first before the solar panels.

Ok if you’re gonna play around with the wires like that, cover the panel so there isn’t voltage being generated. Sure the amperage that’s possible isn’t big but…

Whats wrong with all these people who can take the time to watch but not subscribe? 1.8k views but he only has 282 subscribers? Come on people if you're gonna watch atleast subscribe right?

thank you, great vid!

I had the dokio 100 or 120 panels but the black connection wires or the glue attaching then to the panel started to melt as the Arizona sun got very hot in June. That being said it delivers a lot of power but cheaply made.i sent mine back.

Lol. Should NEVER connect the panel first. BATTERY FIRST! Your destroying it

Nice job pointing out so many details. Did you keep it?
