Quality


Best panels and output is really good with micro inverters


These 450 bifacial panels are great and have been giving incredible results.


The original installer of this system i ultimately inherited, was unbelievably ignorant surrounding most all aspects of his installation.


Claiming under actual use, their panels only produce 280 of the 320 rated watts.

Price


Seems like a good value for 2023.


600 bucks for 640w worth of solar panel.


I would expect to pay no more than 280 each when buying 2 right now.


Surprise -surprise cut electric bill by $30.

Shipping


The 2 renogy bifacial 550 watt solar panels arrived safely and were installed.


All of the ones i ordered on amazon were returned to sender without even being delivered.


I should point out that these things are apparently not easily shipped.


After placing my order there were some set backs with delivery.

Packaging/appearance


There is no packing material between the shipping box and flat portion of the panels so inspect if you see any marks at all on ...  Read More


Packaging was beat up a bit, contents appeared undamaged.


The packing was excellent, which i expected for a relatively expensive and fragile product.

Competitiveness


I would expect better from a supposed reputable company such as renogy.


I find the renogy 550 watt solar panels are more efficient than the renogy 100 watt panels i have purchased over the years.


This differs from their datasheet which says 49.
