You may not always have access to an outlet. Whether you’re camping, stuck on the side of the road, or dealing with a power outage, you can't always be sure you’ll have easy access to electricity. What you can mostly be sure of, however, is that the sun will rise in the morning, and with the EcoFlow 110W Solar Panel, that's enough to take care of the rest. This set of four compact, folding solar panels(opens in a new tab) lets you carry power wherever there's sunlight and a power station to direct power to, and for a limited time, they’re on sale for $289.99 (Reg. $399).

When paired with the EcoFlow Portable Generator, which we’ve mentioned before, these four solar panels can be your own little power supply for mobile devices and even small appliances. These are monocrystalline solar panels(opens in a new tab), the more efficient and slightly more expensive counterpart to the more common polycrystalline panels. That efficiency rounds out to be about a 22% conversion rate. They’re also chainable, so you can connect solar panels together for a more robust power source and a potentially faster charge. Though the EcoFlow Portable Generator is the recommended partner to these panels, with an MC4 to XT60 cable, you can charge many other models.

Setting up the panels themselves is simple. Unfold, extend the kickstand, connect to a generator or other panels, and then point toward the light. If it rains, you can leave them going. They’re IP67 waterproof, and solar panels can still collect power on cloudy days(opens in a new tab). Skies might be grey, but that doesn't mean you're getting knocked off the grid.

Take your electricity with you wherever there's sunlight. These panels could be great for powering a generator while you’re camping or as a backup power source during natural disasters and power outages.
