Anker SOLIX PS30 folding panel, 30 W, USB-A and USB-C, IP65 review

The emptiest specification of the nine: a 30 W folding panel with USB-A, USB-C and an IP65 rating, and no mass, no size, no cell type and no efficiency figure anywhere on the page.

The bottom line A 30 W panel, an IP65 rating and two carabiners: every other column on the comparison sheet is blank.

What this listing puts on record

A 30 W folding solar panel with a USB-A and a USB-C output, an IP65 weather rating, two carabiners, a manual and an 18-month warranty.

Three columns filled out of eleven

This hub compares eleven things about a folding panel. This listing answers three of them: the peak wattage, the port set, and the ingress rating. Cell type, efficiency, Power Delivery, controller, folded size, unfolded size and mass are all absent — not qualified, not hedged, simply not there. It is the shortest specification of the nine.

Nothing to rank it by

Two panels of the same peak wattage are separated by how much panel you carry for each watt, and that means efficiency, area and mass. None of the three appears here. The ports are named without a voltage or a current beside them, so even the compatibility question stops at the shape of the socket.

Buy it for the ports and the IP65

What the page does establish is real enough. IP65 is stated outright, where two listings on this shelf give no ingress figure at all. USB-A and USB-C together mean a phone and a power bank without an adapter. And two carabiners and an 18-month warranty are listed as coming with it. That is the case for this panel; the rest of the sheet does not make one.

What it does well, and where it gives way

Strengths

  • An IP65 rating is stated, where two listings on this shelf publish no ingress figure at all
  • USB-A and USB-C are both present, which covers a phone and a power bank without an adapter
  • Two carabiners, a manual and an 18-month warranty are listed as supplied

Compromises

  • No mass and no folded size, on a panel sold on being carried
  • No cell type and no efficiency percentage, so there is nothing here to rank it against the rest of the shelf
  • The ports are named and never quantified: no voltage, no current, no Power Delivery profile

What people ask before buying

How heavy is it?

The listing does not say. It calls the panel light and compact and describes it folding for transport, and no figure follows. Seven of the nine panels on this shelf publish a mass; this is one of the two that do not.

Can I compare the 30 W with the other 30 W panels here?

Only as a headline. Peak watts is a bench figure everywhere on this shelf — no listing in this hub publishes the irradiance or the cell temperature behind it — and the usual way of separating two panels of the same wattage is efficiency, area and mass. This listing publishes none of those three.
