disappointing
I have multiple Goal Zero products, and they have workedfine. I recently bought a yeti 200x, it seemed to work fine. I just bought a Nomad 20. Connected via the 8mm jack, to the yeti 200. The yeti is a 45%, it been in full sunlight for over 8 hours. And is still at 45%. I have a solid Blue "charge" lite. I checked on the internet to see if I'm doing something wrong. I see about 20 articles, with other customers having the same issue. Question, how do you sell a solar panel that will not charge your own device. I'm getting ready to return the solar panel. But I'm very disappointed. From the articles on the internet, it appears the issue has been going on since January 2024

Easy way to recharge small power packs
Purchased this for my son to take to college with him so he can keep his Sherpa 100 charged in a power outage. Did the same for my daughter. The 20 is built well and works great to keep smaller power packs charged. I have one and it has worked great over the years.

Disappointed
I bought this to recharge my Sherpa 100PD. After being in the sun 2 days, 12 hours both days in direct sun (on cloudless days), it only recharged the Sherpa 25%. It might be OK for a phone, but not for what I needed.

Not hitting the power I need
Trying to use this to help maintain my goal zero 300. It’s maxing out at 7W. I would at least expect 10-15 in direct perfect sunlight.

Works but pretty heavy!
The panel works but it is very heavy for a portable panel. I have to decide weather I'm taking my sherpa battery or the panel because both are to much on an expedition. On Everest in full sun it only charges at 8w therefore it takes quite a while to fill the battery

Too expensive for poor performance
I bought this a year ago and have been using it to charge portable batteries while camping. Some things it charges normally like my big batteries. Anything smaller sized like my phone or smaller power batterIes takes FOREVER to charge even in strong sunlight. Also a major design flaw with the folding panel is that the creases where the folds are always want to swing shut when it’s cold. I have to pry them open with rocks and sticks to keep it from constantly closing until the sun warms it up enough to loosen the plastic creases enough to stay open. Bottom line: don’t waste your money on expensive poor quality goal zero products. Spend less on something better quality.

Everglades Expedition
I used Goal Zero for a 1,500-mile, 75-day solo canoe and kayak expedition. (PaddleQuest 1500) The equipment performed so well that I upgraded for a recent Everglades circumnavigation expedition. Keeping the Venture 75 on charge all day, even with filtered sunlight gave me the juice necessary to keep navigation, communication and lights topped off. It’s good to venture into the wilderness confident in my essential equipment!

Charges my nomad in about 6 hours!
If it's been folded up for a while it's kind of hard to unfold and use other than that it's genuine goal zero quality.

Does not charge batteries
I was hoping to use this as a maintainer for my boat batteries. There is no way to do this any more since the Guardian device has been discontinued. This is not a devcice for regular battery charging.it only seems to work with Goal Zero power banks which are not appropriate for typical boat usage.

Can the NOMAD 20 SOLAR PANEL charge a power bank at Power Delivery speeds (I think 9V at about 1.7Amps) or is it compatible with Power Delivery charging protocol? I am trying to 'fast charge' a Biolite Charge 40PD power bank through the USB-C PD port.

Is the Solar Port (blue, 8mm, male) only used for chining other solar panels or can you power other devices faster than you can with the standard USB ?

Was looking for Nomad 28, I assume that is retired in favor of the Nomad 20....or will a Nomad 30 be coming out? I connect 3 Nomad 50's and 1 Nomad 28 with 4x 8mm adapter to my 500x could I chain 20's through the other panels? cloudy weather here a lot.
