About This Item

• 40W Monocrystalline Power in 4.4 lbs: High-efficiency monocrystalline solar cells deliver 40W at peak sunlight conditions while the entire panel weighs just 4.4 pounds. Lighter than most water bottles and sized to fit in a large backpack pocket.
• Direct USB-C (18W PD) Output: The 18W USB-C Power Delivery port charges modern iPhones, Android phones, and tablets at fast-charge speeds directly from sunlight — eliminating the need for a power bank on day hikes and shorter trips.
• USB-A (12W) for Older Devices: The 12W USB-A port simultaneously charges accessories including earbuds, GPS devices, headlamps, and older smartphones while the USB-C charges your primary device.
• Compatible with All Jackery Explorer Stations: The included DC5525 connector pairs seamlessly with Jackery Explorer 240 v2, 300 v2, 500, 1000, and other Explorer models for solar station charging on camping trips.
• Ultra-Compact Folded Design: Folds to 8.0″ × 11.2″ × 1.0″ — small enough to slip in the front pocket of a hiking backpack. Three D-ring anchors allow hanging from branches, tent poles, and backpack straps to follow the sun while you rest.
• IPX4 Water Resistance: IPX4-rated water resistance handles rain showers, morning dew, and trail splashing without damage. More water-resistant than standard fabric panels while remaining ultralight.
• ETFE Lamination – Scratch Resistant: Industrial ETFE polymer lamination protects the solar cells from trail abrasion, UV yellowing, and surface contamination while maintaining maximum light transmission to the cells.
