Interesting but have you taken note of their size ?
2,384 × 1,303 × 35mm, quite bulky, at least for a motorhome smaller than a tourist bus.

Yes, that’s true.
Hopefully they can get the 25% increase across the size range......
Technology advancing constantly, we will see great advances in the next 5 - 10 years in this type of technology and also in batteries which have come leaps and bounds in recent times.

What I don't understand is why doesn't anyone combine PV solar with thermal solar? I found this review https://websolarguide.com/am-solar-power-banks/

Interesting programme on BBC R4 today regarding solar panels. Worth a listen. Interesting developments that could/will double our solar panel output.

That's sweet if they can do it. That would be more eco-friendly and I guess safer alternative. Definitely a great innovation.
