The 5 Best Solar Panels in 2023

[@SolarReviews]

Update (March 2022): LG has announced that they are exiting the solar panel business. Read our take on the development here: www.solarreviews.com/blog/lg-announces-end-of-solar-panel-manufacturing

[@rexdutchman3140]

So the reason for LG to exit is because the tariffs and cost spiked so much that they would not yield a profit in the long-term market. The problem has occurred as the result of shareholders not feeling comfortable with long term investment gains in the crisis of this economy. The United States, Australia, Canada And Arab countries are the biggest purchasers of LG Solar products. Makes you think 🤔

Thank you for the great videos!

This panel can put out close to 100 watts kzbin.infoUgkxOqI2yqX0XVrhR2BMJciTWrHJpG8FhJyg when positioned in the appropriate southernly direction, tilted to the optimal angle for your latitude/date, and connected to a higher capacity device than a 500. The built in kickstand angle is a fixed at 50 degrees. Up to 20% more power can be output by selecting the actual date and latitude optimal angle.The 500 will only input 3.5A maximum at 18 volts for 63 watts. Some of the excess power from the panel can be fed into a USB battery bank, charged directly from the panel while also charging a 500. This will allow you to harvest as much as 63 + 15 = 78 watts.If this panel is used to charge a larger device, such as the power station, then its full output potential can be realized.

I've been researching solar panels and accessories for some time now, and this has to be THEE VERY BEST video of its kind on the subject. Outstanding presentation and content. Outstanding.

[@kellyliang9302]

Hi, we're solar battery manufacturer, do you interested in it?

[@joewooh]

Sorry, are we talking about solar panel or financial statements...😅

[@lentilgod58]

If you could do the same for inverter brands, it would be extremely helpful. Thank you

[@MrMindlink]

Thanks for the info. (Please correct your title, it is misleading. 2021 vs 2023 - add something like: "updated in 2022" or the like...)

[@N0GutsN0Glory]

@SolarReviews It would be tremendously useful to have an updated (2022) version of this review. One learning I hope Solar Reviews would take from 2021 is to weigh financial viability appropriatel: It’s hard to make accurate sense of the financials for foreign owned or private companies. Especially wouldn’t put so much credence in the numbers coming from Chinese manufacturers).

[@SolarReviews]

We are currently working on an updated list for 2022!

[@rexdutchman3140]

Great video, definitely something to consider and review. Thank you for the video.

[@jedics1]

Including profitability as part of the criteria for rating a panel makes me wonder what all the others muppets are doing who 'review' panels :) I bought the Jinko because money, $1000 for 2000w is the best value for money I have ever gotten from handing over my cash, paid for themselves in under 2 years. Now I can sit back and let the free power come in for the next 2 decades, actually I am going to buy another 2000w+ first which is why I am here.

[@bochmary]

very good explaination

[@scottgordon1781]

All the talk and what does he have ? Canadian :-) Value .

[@1989cranston]

Yeppoon post code 4703 doesnt let you proceed with solar calculator.

[@SolarReviews]

Hi Nick. Our calculator currently only covers the U.S.

[@1989cranston]

@SolarReviews ahhh, Aussie presenter made me think it was Australian calculator. Cheers.

[@sarabhabib1003]

Looks like your number one choice jumped ship.

[@video99couk]

We've just had Trina panels installed in the UK (with Tesla Powerwall 2). Looked on your web site but can't find the top 10 rankings section, could you make that easier to locate?

[@remmog-bj5ob]

Is this top still same in 2024 ?

[@Brad.W]

I dunno i have a neighbor that has a 50 425w per panel LG NEON R Prime array vs my 40 panel Jinko Solar JKM410M-72HL-VS array and my system outperforms his by almost 8kwh per day.

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Great info 👍

[@samuelakpan103]

Do you have a review video for lithium batteries/ energy storage systems ?

[@kellyliang9302]

Hi, we're battery manufacturer

[@SuprimUpadhyay]

What about REC Panels?

[@TonyRatkovicDC]

Thank you for all your reviews! Look to go solar. I am torn between Rec and Sunpower right. What do you believe are the major differences? Thank you in advance.

[@uditraizada1335]

Can u adjust my back?

[@senordockman1138]

Good question but I am going with REC.

[@tryingoutgravity]

Price value, both top tier. Personally I say REC

[@scottmccurry9013]

do you have a video on string inverters vs microinverters? Or panel monitoring warranties?

[@SolarReviews]

Hi Scott. Here's a link to an article on our blog that discusses string inverters vs microinverters. www.solarreviews.com/blog/pros-and-cons-of-string-inverter-vs-microinverter

[@SSMLivingPictures]

Thanks for the vid. Ill be doing QCells on my home

[@tryingoutgravity]

For those steering clear of china manufactures, I typically sell REC panels for value on the dollar. And they come out of Norway.

[@frankcherry3810]

Anyone try Bluesun 700W bifacial solar panel-BSM700PMB6-70SDC ?

[@lynfoster6493]

How long does top up battery last

[@SolarReviews]

Hi Lyn! Lithium-ion batteries typically last at least 10 years, depending on the brand. You can read more about it on our blog here. www.solarreviews.com/blog/how-long-do-solar-batteries-last

[@aditneh1]

how about ja solar?

[@SolarReviews]

Here's a link to our review of JA Solar on our blog. www.solarreviews.com/blog/ja-solar-panels

[@hassanberbia2834]

Thank yot for your interesting review. Qcells is produced in KOREA, CHINA and MALAYSIA. what is the difference between the three sources? Thank you in advance

[@brooktech7869]

And Atlanta Georgia.

[@rmgmarketing7618]

REC is far more beter than any of the reviewed panels in every price range, take the Twinpeak4 and the top of the range Alpha Pure, those are best

[@braaitongs]

Are these 400w panels

[@sgomez8194]

Do we know where LG manufactures their panel? I would be interested in not buying from a manufacturer that doesn't get their panels from China.

[@SolarReviews]

LG no longer manufactures solar panels. But these companies do: www.solarreviews.com/blog/best-american-solar-panel-manufacturers

[@user-dr2pg8fk2i]

SunPower - don't have to worry about fiances, because they are owned by a massively pollutive chemical and oil company.

[@cecilforbes3034]

Ongrid solar systems pump your power out whilst ur not home full stop

[@witz224]

A solar company wants to put on vsun panels on my house, are they any good ?

[@Foxfried]

LG is out of the market... But yes they are excellent.

[@timshifflet2402]

Have you priced REC Alpha Pure…🤮

[@ottifantiwaalkes9289]

Sunpower flex panels show severe sundamage before 3 years. Surface gets damaged by UV. Surface layer starts to crumble like all bad plastics do. No warranty excepted. Rip off

[@suresbhe]

awesome

[@fitwal]

Is it true LG are now out of Solar

[@SolarReviews]

Yes, LG has announced that they are exiting the solar panel business. Read our take on the development here: www.solarreviews.com/blog/lg-announces-end-of-solar-panel-manufacturing

[@wanaraz]

If you buy American you get some sort of rebate.

[@tippylosojos]

How in the hell did REC not make the top 5? haha

[@danregep4646]

Watch minute 5+ and 9.40+

[@Xalser]

Just had REC Alphas activated the other day and they are far overproducing daily of what is expected… I am very happy with my REC Alpha series. Also, decently affordable for quality

[@tippylosojos]

@@danregep4646 I watched, kinda of funny why they were left out

[@tippylosojos]

@@Xalser the best choice

[@brianwilson1970]

TINDO all day! Made in Australia jobs for our kids and every dollar we spend on fully imported panels ensures investment here dies.

[@garys6898]

Rec bruh

[@shsa9929]

Thanks for sharing!

[@eugeneclark9448]

Sunpower is the best

[@tippylosojos]

Wrong, we deal with a lot of their service calls and its a pain.
