Charge Your Sungzu Power Station With Solar Panels<\/h2>\n

Today I would like to help you figure out what solar panels compatible with the Sungzu power stations.<\/p>\n

Sungzu is a somewhat unknown company that makes power stations, also known as solar generators. It sells a couple of different models for all kinds of uses.<\/p>\n

Sungzu’s power stations are great for things like camping or any other outdoor activity, home emergency backups, and UPS needs.<\/p>\n

Its lineup consists of the No products found.<\/span>, No products found.<\/span>, No products found.<\/span>, and the largest No products found.<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Not all solar panels are compatible with each of the Sungzu batteries, so today I am going to help you figure out what panels are compatible with what power station, and what you need to know and think about when considering what panel to buy.<\/p>\n

Before we look at solar panels, let’s take a look at what each of the Sungzu solar generators can handle in terms of inputs, voltages, and amperages.<\/p>\n

Compatible Solar Panels<\/h2>\n

Since there are several differences between the different power stations, let’s go through each one separately.<\/p>\n

Solar panels compatible with Sungzu 200W\/300W<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 200W and 300W power stations have the more common 5.5×2.1mm DC input. This means that it’s compatible with a lot of portable solar panels on the market that comes with several different DC outputs.<\/p>\n

Sungzu makes a 65W solar panel (click to view on Amazon)<\/a> that is compatible with both the 200W and 300W models because it has two DC outputs, one being a 19V\/3A output. Note that the 100W model is not compatible since it’s a 32V panel.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of other solar panels that are compatible directly out of the box with the use of the 5.5×2.1mm adapters: Paxcess 50W<\/a>, Enkeeo 50W<\/a>, Jackery SolarSaga 60W<\/a>, and Rockpals 100W<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To use third-party solar panels with the Sungzu 200W and 300W, you’re going to need this adapter (click to view on Amazon)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"AIMTOM<\/a><\/p>\n

With the use of the adapter above, you can connect panels like these: Renogy 100W<\/a> \/ HQST 100W<\/a> \/ Newpowa 100W<\/a> \/ Eco-Worthy 100W<\/a> \/ No products found.<\/span>.<\/p>\n

When choosing a third-party panel, you want to make sure its VOC rating is within the limits of the Sungzu power stations that I listed in the table above. You also need to make sure it has a positive MC4 male connector, and a negative MC4 female connector, otherwise the polarity will be wrong and can cause damage to the charge controller.<\/p>\n

Solar panels compatible with Sungzu 500W<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Sungzu has a 4P DIN input, which makes it harder to find compatible solar panels.<\/p>\n

One that is compatible is the Sungzu 65W solar panel (click to view on Amazon)<\/a> which comes with a 4P DIN (aviation) adapter. Note that the 100W model is not compatible since it’s a 24V panel that outputs 32V.<\/p>\n

Solar panels compatible with Sungzu 1000W<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Sungzu 1000W has the same 4P DIN (aviation) DC input, but it uses a 24V solar charge controller and requires solar panels that can output between 32-45V VOC.<\/p>\n

One compatible panel is the Sungzu 100W<\/a>. This panel is only compatible with the 1000W model and none of the smaller ones.<\/p>\n

How Can I Improve The Charging Efficiency When Using Solar Panels?<\/h2>\n

The easiest thing you can do is make sure that the panels are facing the sun. This means that you might have to angle them during the morning and evening, or the wintertime when the sun is low on the horizon.<\/p>\n

Another thing is to make sure there is no shade on the panel(s). Some panels can handle shade better than others, but it’s better to be safe than sorry and make sure the sun can reach every cell on the panel.<\/p>\n

Can I Extend The Wires From The Solar Panel?<\/h2>\n

If the panel has MC4 connectors, you can use these MC4 extension cables by WindyNation (click to view on Amazon)<\/a> to extend the connection.<\/p>\n

How Long Will It Take To Charge The Sunzu Battery With Solar Panels?<\/h2>\n

It depends on which power station you have and what solar panel you’ve paired it with.<\/p>\n

The 300W has a 350Wh battery, the 500W has a 550Wh battery, and the 1000W has a 1010Wh battery.<\/p>\n

Wh stands for watt-hours and is the battery capacity when counting in watts. For example, a 50W device uses 50 watt-hours per hour.<\/p>\n

If you use a 100W solar panel, this is an estimate of how long it would take to recharge each of them.<\/p>\n

300W<\/strong> – 5 hours<\/p>\n

500W<\/strong> – 8 hours<\/p>\n

1000W<\/strong> – 15 hours<\/p>\n

Add another 100W panel to the 500W, and you’d be fully charged in four hours. I recommend using more panels in most situations to improve the charging speed significantly.<\/p>\n

Do I Need A Solar Charge Controller?<\/h2>\n

Solar generators usually have built-in charge controllers, so it’s safe to plug solar panels into them without using a charge controller. Sungzu’s power stations have built-in charge controllers.<\/p>\n
