Amps are pulled, volts are forced.
The charge controller will only pull as many amps as are available without causing voltage sag, or whatever it’s max rating is. You can’t ‘overamp’ the MPPT. Stay within the voltage range and you’ll be fine.
Amps are not pull.. Amps are the amount of flow like gallons per minute… Voltage is pressure… please don’t give incorrect information.
@@skepticalmechanic Everything @matthewtaylor3301 said is correct. You just looking for something to nitpick about. Your pushing the point, his easy to understand explanation is not 100% correct. Next you will point out spelling and grammar mistakes I assume.
Absolutely easy to understand guidance for a confusing process , thanks
WONKA, WHAT A GREAT IDEA THOSE STAKES ARE!! Very cool.
Thanks for explaining everything!
I just have to say thank you for doing these videos. I was lost on what I needed and you have helped on so much. thank you.
As always another great video loaded with info. I’ve learned so much from your channel and the Acevolt 700 I got it’s such a workhorse and never lets me down. Also I really like the Wonka quote within the video. Thanks again!
Thank you for providing such informative knowledge. This is exactly what I needed.
Great information, I have enjoyed your review on other solar product as well. Thanks for your work Wonka!
Wonka a wonderful video.
You are an important resource as we choose our power station for our horse trailer with a living quarters.
Thank you for the hard work you do!
You have made me a dedicated subscriber. I am a newbie to solar for camping and i just learned all the basics of figuring how much i need but the guy didnt mention any of this and i figured (as an old radio shack manger) there was a lot of details the guy left out. This was extremely informative and greatly appreciated!
What a great video! Informative and entertaining, I came looking for my new Flashspeed and came away a little smarter than when I started the video. Thanks as always
Wow! Thank you…this is packed with great information which I’ve had a difficult time finding-particularly all in one place. Cheers!
Great video! Was having a difficult time piecing it all together on my own!
I'm just starting to Wonka my way into solar power stations and solar panels. Thanks for this informative video!
Great overview - thanks
I really like your explanations and details. And thanks for sharing your experiences.
Very clearly explained and even I could understand it. Very good advice about connections too.

Great video! As I plan my cargo trailer conversion your information is quite helpful. Thanks for all the time you put into these videos. Wonka, Wonka, Wonka!
So much info in this video thanks for providing them. I like the Willie Wonka edits that you showed throughout the video. I am looking to get into portable solar.
Thanks! With you explanation I was able to identify the right panel for the solar charger I have 👍
OMG! I was just looking at the portable 100 watt solar panel to use with our Egoflow 2. Thank you for this video!! It was perfect timing!!
Wow. I must have watched 2 hours of your videos in the last 24 hours! Very informative stuff. Thanks. WONKA!
As always, you produce solid content that I always learn from. Thank you. Wonka
Very well done video. Well explained and thought out.
Learned a lot
Wonka
At first watching i was confused. Then found the encouraged myself to reasearch. Now im fully vested in all your videos.
Thank you greatly for your time and teachings
Very well done, sir. Most informative video on the connectors and determining male from female no matter if labeled or not. Thank you
I learn so much from your Channel. Just bought my first real solar panels and waiting on my solar generator to be delivered from Pecron. Thanks for all you do. Wonka.
Hello “Gadget Guy”. First off I Wonka thank you for all of your very detailed and informative videos. I purchased a Pecron E2000lfp because of your reviews a couple months ago. Wasn’t sure of any solar panels until you posted the Elecaenta 300 video. I just ordered one and a 120 watt also. Now oh have 420 watts of Solar to play with. Thanks for your links and discount codes. Keep up the great work.
This was very educational and I learned a lot in this about solar. I bought a solar generator last year and tried it on my service truck, but it didn’t perform as good as the gas one so I took it off of there after about a month I sure Wonka a new panel to go with it, thanks for all your education on solar. This has been an absolutely great video.
Very informative. As you said I may need to watch this a few times to gain a full understanding. I am researching solar panels for my new UGreen 1200W you previewed a few months ago. I used it for the first time In Yellowstone and it was great!Wonka!
Great job on this video. Just picked up the delta 2 max but still need a solar panel for camping when hunting. Thank you for posting great content. Wonka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice job on explaining the gender of MC4 connectors and flow from panel to storage.
GOOD DAY SIR!
Thanks Soo much! You have motivated me to buying a Jackery. I also bought a 120w elecaenta, I’m thinking of buying a second for my 880 Jackery. Your way in explaining is very articulate and clear. I look forward to more videos!
WONKA !!😂
Wonka
good overview of solar panels with lots of valuable insight.
One of the most useful videos I have seen for us beginners. WONKA
Excellent introduction, wish I'd seen this at the start of my journey.
Awesome video!!!! Would love a set of the hook and loop stakes!
i'm new to the solar generators and panels so you help a lot, thanks wonka
Professor reeway great review. New to the whole solar WONKA stuff and your videos help us layman’s to digest what we can. Thank you
Thank you for sharing. I had watched one of your videos on the 100-watt solar panels. I ended up buying them and hope they last this event. Hope you can start the rural life soon. Not much time left to prepare. Will try and view more of your videos when I can make time. Liked the leg anchors you showed at end of this video. Willy Wonka would be proud.
Great informative video! Thank you for creating this!
Excellent guide. I recommend to do this annually, not only for the new tech, but it's actually more attractive for people to check out if the information is recent. From my own experience looking at other types of hardware, the last thing anyone wants to do is to learn something that's a decade out of date.
Good point about the positive and negative male and female mc4 connectors.
It doesn't really matter if the positive is male or female, as long as the positive and negative are clearly identifiable and correctly connected.
Another great video. Thanks for all the information and advice you provide. Wonka.
Thanks so much much for another very informative video! I recently purchased a Elecaenta 120 watt portable solar panel based on your reviews. It's a perfect match to charge my UIBI 666Wh power station, which you've also reviewed! Both will help during the next power outage and also be a great camping addition. Willy Wonka would have been proud of your using his clip in your video & I hope to win one of those panel stake-down gifts! Thanks again and keep up the great videos!!!
Clever man, excellent lesson. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I really Wonka set of those! 😊 Nice video, thank you...
This is genuinely helpful
Very good information about ETF that I did not know about. I bought the 200W Xday one and no matter what I do I only get about 80W output feeding my Bluetti even after they sent me a replacement, I have their bendable 100W panel and able to get 80W with no problem.
Great comprehensive explanations…especially at 19:50 about extension cables. Wow that could be a disaster. 🙏
Like many other solar newbies, I've found the conversational descriptions in your reviews easier to understand than some other sites. Makes me feel a little less guilty abut forgetting my basic science classes from long ago. "Wonka"
Wonka What a great review answered many of my questions! Keep up these helpful vids.
Thank you sir! Great information as usual.
WONKA does it!
Just came upon your video doing a search. Very informative. I’m thinking about upgrading my solar panels to 300 whatts.
I really appreciate your detailed, data-backed-up videos. Subscriber in US Wonka
Leaving the word “Wonka” thank you for the very informative information on Solar Panels, I just purchased the OUPES 1800 Power station & will have to look into getting some solar panels. I love watching your videos, but am fairly new at watching yours as I just found your channel. Thanks again, and keep ‘em coming!!
I have used Bluetti 200W panels and AllPowers 200W polycrystalline panels (excellent price for AllPowers polycrystalline, especially if you hit a lighning deal or other deal, half the cost of the Bluetti BUT might not last as long) with my Oupes, and both do great charging.
Very good, informative video and thank you!
Great video, I learned a quite a bit. I appreciate the explanation on connector types. Couldn’t help but think about the saying “that’s the great thing about standards, there’s so many of them”.
Haha that's a great saying! And so true!
Wonka fit in your video great. Solar stakes look useful. I’d like to try them on my PV200.
Hey there thanks for being in depth about all the particulars that go into going solar. I'm starting the process and am slowly getting the items bit by bit. Also the Wonka meme never got old as it was times correctly each time. Lol take care.
Thanks for a really good video. Wish I would've see this before I started down my solar path. Very helpful. WONKA😀
Something that would work well for the wind would be the skinny plant stakes I use to keep them propped up. I always have some, so a handy solution
I watch you all the time but I must’ve missed this particular video. I wanted to tell you that you are doing great work in the solar field and we appreciate you. Keep up the good work, sir. We are watching and learning. Thank you.
Thanks so much for those kind words, Dennis! :) Very sincerely appreciated!
Thanks, good info. Would like to see you do vid going into the series and parallel manipulation to a particular power bank. The solar panel straps are a great idea, alot of high winds where im at. Wonka, stay well
I'm just starting my portable power education. It started with your video entitled 'How to Pick the BEST Power Station for YOU' . I appreciate what you do. Wonka would give his approval.
Of all those connectors, the XT60 is by far the best connector. It's easy to use and flows the most current.
And the XT60i is even better. In terms of efficiency, the i's (eyes) have it.
Thank you for taking your time to explain all this, I not really totally up to speed with all this, but you made it a lot easier for me to understand solar better. Thank you for your video.
Great video! I especially appreciate the explanation of barrel connector names. Also...Wonka.
Love your videos, and you’ve been a wealth of information as I get ready for a couple month solo rv adventure. Oh, and Wonka.
Any recommendations on some rigid panels that I could mount on my RV or rooftop tent for the E1500 LFP? Don’t wanna use flexible or portable folding ones. Your videos have helped me so much! Thanks!
Thank you for all your great insight. And of course Wonka.
WONKA! Love your articulate explanations on how this stuff works. Would also love to win those Solar Stakes!
Wonka approves this message. Keep it up Ray!!👏👏👏👏
This was GREAT!!! I learned so much!!
Great video! Love the Wonka!
Great content, thank you.
Wonky……. Great video!!! I’ve noticed that 1. Higher voltage is best for MPPT on the power station. 2. Also try to get current to equal or exceed the input of the power station when selecting panels.
Wow! I am so glad I found you. Just ordered a Bluetti EB3A which should arrive in a couple of days. I plan on getting some panels next month so am looking to make sure I don't over do it and blow this little power station. I'm assuming their owner info is fairly well directing but for an electrical ignoramus like me it seems it is very easy to make a critical mistake. I'll certainly be reviewing this as I begin planning my exact panel purchases. Thank you so much.
Thanks wonka wonka 😊 this was a very helpful a easy to understand tutorial on solar panel build and cable differences 👍

Very informative and I learned a few things, love this and hope that you can do more tutorials for beginners like myself, shame uk not included in the giveaway 👍🏻
Thanks for the information.I am getting ready to finish the outside of our small cabin, and I'm looking for solar solutions for the cabin. Thanks for the tips on solar panels this has been a great help. These tips would have went a long way for WILLY WONKA at the Choclate Factory.
WONKA! I also Love your articulate explanations on how this stuff works. Would also love to win those Solar Stakes!
Enjoyed learning about solar panels and there connections. Just got the jackery explorer 1000 with the two solar panels
Tie downs would be nice Wonka Wonka :)
I found your tutorial helpful - I picked up a VTOMAN 400W solar panel, and it up similarly. Unfortunately I was too late for the WONKA promotion. Enjoy your videos!
Wonka. Thank you for doing this review. I learned several things.
Love your videos.
I wish you could do a best bang for your buck power station to portable solar panel purchase bundle.
Mix and match brands for best price to performance.
great info very helpful Wonka
Love the content. Keep up the great work. Wonka.
Helped me decide on getting an EcoFlow Delta during their last round of sales. Now I'm needing a solar panel like Augustus needs Wonka bars.
😂 He was my favorite character of the movie!!!😂
D'oh! I just missed the contest, but thank you very much for the excellent info in this video!!! wonka 😎
Very informative
I am preparing to shop for my solar system and the cool “wonka” stakes may come in handy
Congratulations! Since we had a number of first round Winners fail to claim their Solar Stakes after a full week, I did a re-draw...and your comment was randomly selected :) All you have to do is email your name & shipping address to me at reewrayoutdoors@dwray.com I will forward your information to the Solar Stakes guy, who will ship your Solar Stakes directly to you. No spam...no cost! Thanks for watching the channel. Oh and 'Have fun out there!' :P
Thanks for the helpful information. 👍👍 Wonka
Thanks for spending the time sorting out the MC4 connectors. I'm in the process of building a dolly mounted emergency power bank with a 3000 watt, all in one inverter/charger and I've been hung up on how to connect the MC4s to the unit. I'm making my own cables, and I noticed all the discrepancies with the color codes and markings and by including a circuit breaker as well, it got complicated enough that I had to back off until a day when the ol' noggin was firing on more cylinders. I even saw videos that suggest that the proper way to refer to the gender of the connectors is by using the pins inside the plastic parts, which of course are the opposites of the plastic parts, a hollow socket inside the part with the rubber o-ring, making it female, and a solid rod inside the other connector, making it the male! And Wonka !
Ha! Yeah I actually originally had a segment in that clip talking about the opposite gender of the internal pins...but I ended up cutting it because I thought it would just confuse people more, unnecessarily.
Other reviewers are just WONKA but yours are very informative and logical.
Thanks for this very useful video

Wonka Video! As usual, lots of great info!
Thanks for the information!
Wonka!
Thanks for clearing things up for me. The reverse of the extension cables was new to me. Luckily when my friends who were helping connected the cables they knew this. Now I know! I was all being a WONKA! 😂
Thanks again for the very detailed and thorough video bud! Wonka
