Very durable, no fabric holding it together it's molded together
This is a very well made panel. It is molded together and not stitched together with fabric. This will take some abuse, I have 2 other 100watt solar panels made similar to this one and they've been drug around for 3 years without looking tattered.

The solar side is highly textured with some thick type of plastic, then those are molded to a substrate and the back is a molded on durable synthetic material.

I've only used this 4 days and only one of those 4 days was it clear enough, and we were sedentary long enough, to angle it the best I could to follow the sun. During that time I had it connected to a portable power station to give it a charge. This power station shows the input it's receiving. The highest it went was 20 watt input from this 30 watt panel.
I'm not saying it's not 30 watt capable, but it's a real challenge to angle this folding panel perfectly to pull the 30 watts.
If you'll be hanging this from a tree, backpack, car, or maybe flat on the ground, over a boulder for short stents, instead of being sedentary and focusing on angling the panel perfectly every 30 minutes to follow the sun, you can expect an average of 5-10 watts output while mobile.
This isn't a complaint any solar panel would require this to pull its full capacity.

We did use it to top off phones and small camera equipment, enough to get us by throughout our trip.

I'm pleased with it and glad to see a well built folding panel that endures outdoor activities in a small package.

This doesn't come with any cords, you'll need to provide your own.

Hopefully this was helpful, Thank you!
