Anker’s updated PS400 brings bifacial N‑type cells rated at over 25% efficiency to a 400 W folding panel that weighs 22 lb with its stand, about 10% lighter than the previous version. The rear side adds up to 10% more power over snow, sand or concrete.

It is IP68 rated with a reinforced aluminum frame, and Anker backs it with a 5‑year warranty and a 10‑year lifespan claim. It ships with two 8.2 ft solar cables and an XT‑60i cable. Being a new release, independent long‑term tests are still limited.

Pros

  • 400 W at 22 lb with stand
  • Bifacial N‑type cells over 25%
  • IP68 and 5‑year warranty
  • Cables included for most stations

Cons

  • New, with few reviews yet
  • Expensive
  • Needs a station with 400 W+ solar input to make full use of it

Who it’s for

  • Anker SOLIX F3000 and C1000 Gen 2 owners
  • Large stations like the DELTA Pro 3 or Elite 200 V2
  • Anyone who needs 400 W but must carry it

Estimated at 70% of rated power to account for clouds, angle and heat. Stations marked * accept less solar power than the panel can give, so they cap the speed.

Before you buy: check that the panel’s connector fits your station (or buy the adapter) and that its open‑circuit voltage (Voc) is within the station’s solar input range. Panels can be wired in series or parallel to add power if the station allows it.
