There was a SHORT circuit in the ORANGE wire harness that came with the panel. Turns out, the SHORT was caused by the INCLUDED barrel adapter attached to one of the harness wires. Unplugged the problem adapter and tossed it away,… (I have more of those adapters from other products, and don't use that adapter anyway)
Still have to test when we get full sunlight again,… It's been raining and cloudy since we received the panel.
NOTE,… Velcro closure should be replaced with a clip,… The panel fell open while holding from carry handle, because Velcro didn't hold.
Also didn't realize how THICK and heavy the panel is when folded,… Guess it still won't be going on a flight with me, do to thickness folded, and heavy weight.
Wish the solar cells were more flexible instead of being ridged.
Guess I keep shopping for 100w panel that fits better in luggage.,…
