Portable Solar Panels

A portable solar panel turns your camping trip or 4WD setup into something genuinely self-sufficient. Pair one with a power station and you've got a system that recharges itself during the day while you're out fishing, doing a day walk, or sitting around the fire. It changes how long you can stay out, because you're not watching a battery percentage count down - you're putting power back in every time the sun's out.

True Gear stocks EcoFlow's portable solar panel range, designed to work directly with EcoFlow power stations and compatible with Bluetti units that accept standard MC4 connections. The panels fold down flat for easy storage and clip onto a roof rack, a fence post, or lay out on the ground - whatever the site calls for. They're built tough enough for Australian conditions, with weather-resistant casings and tempered glass cells that handle the rough treatment that comes with being in the back of a 4WD every weekend.

Whether you're running one 160W panel to top up a River 3 Plus, or stacking 400W+ to fast-charge a Delta Pro 3, the setup is the same: connect, point at the sun, and let it do its thing. We can help you spec the right combination of panels and power station for your rig if you're not sure where to start.

Portable Solar Panels FAQs

What size portable solar panel do I need for camping or a caravan?

It depends on what you're running. A 200W panel is a solid all-rounder for charging a portable power station, running a fridge, and keeping your devices topped up on a weekend away. If you're running a full caravan setup or living off-grid for extended stints, step up to 350W-500W. True Gear stocks panels from 60W right up to 500W, so there's something for every setup.

What brands of portable solar panels does True Gear stock?

True Gear stocks Bluetti and Renogy portable solar panels - two of the most trusted names in the game. Bluetti panels are designed to pair perfectly with Bluetti power stations. Renogy offers a strong range of monocrystalline panels in foldable suitcase and rollable blanket formats, ideal for 4WDs and caravans.

How much do portable solar panels cost in Australia?

Prices range from around $200 for a compact 60W panel up to $1,400+ for a 500W unit. Most blokes setting up a solid camping or caravan solar system will spend $350-$900 on a panel. True Gear regularly has panels on sale, so it's worth checking current pricing on the collection page.

What's the difference between a solar blanket and a foldable solar panel?

A solar blanket rolls up and packs flat - great if you're tight on space in a swag bag or soft-floor camper trailer. A foldable panel (suitcase style) is more rigid, usually more efficient, and handles being propped up at an angle better, which means more watts in less-than-perfect sun. If portability and weight are the priority, go the blanket. If you want maximum output and durability, go foldable.

Can I use a portable solar panel to charge a power station for a caravan or 4WD?

Absolutely. Portable solar panels are purpose-built for exactly this - pair one with a compatible power station and you've got a silent, fuel-free power setup for a fridge, lights, CPAP, tools, or whatever else you need out bush. Just check that the panel's output voltage and connector type match your power station. Most Bluetti panels connect directly to Bluetti stations, and Renogy panels use standard MC4 connectors that work with most units.
