As shown in the picture, it's recommended to unfold the bracket first before unfolding the panel. For easier operation, it's recommended to stand behind the panel when unfolding it. Check the shadow point on the solar angle guide to adjust the brackets, aiming to align the shadow as close to the center as possible.
Power Your Devices Prerequisites You can connect the panel to an EcoFlow portable power station to store power, or to an EcoFlow smart device to power the device directly. When using the panel with your devices, please make sure the maximum output parameters¹...

Make sure the cables were connected firmly before use to avoid port melting caused by poor connection. If the panel is connected to an EcoFlow device, you can check real-time output data on the screen of the device or on the device's homepage of EcoFlow app.
Maximize Power Output Find an Ideal Environment Use the panel on sunny or mostly sunny days On a sunny noon when sunlight is strong, the panel yields more power. On cloudy or rainy days with weaker sunlight, the panel's output decreases accordingly.

Generally speaking, it's recommended to wire solar panels in series for connecting with a portable power station. How to Connect To wire series, connect the male connector of the first panel to the female connector of the next, and so on. Then, connect the solar to XT60i charging cable with the output cables of the first and the last panels.

Determine Wiring Plan Take the following factors into consideration when determining whether to wire in series or in parallel. Feasibility Series connection is simple and allows you to keep the total current at a relatively low level so that it will fall within the solar input range of the connected device.
Portable solar panels barely generate power under such circumstances as they are made of monocrystalline cells, whose performance is restricted under weak light. 4. Is the panel compatible with all EcoFlow portable power stations? It depends on the electrical parameters of the panel and the solar input parameters of the power station.
