As I said, other companies manage to do it. Renology wants you to think their prices are better than they really are. Fifty watts for eighty dollars? This panel is really 30 watts for 80 dollars if you are comparison shopping. Renogy's competitors would advertise this as a 30 watt panel. You

Renogy is not very honest about output. 50 watts at 12 volts is fuzzy math for this panel, whose output is really almost 19 volts. Output should be stated at the working output voltage. That is more like a 30 watt panel when comparing to other brands whose quality factor includes truth. =-O
