I purchased this charger to help my tent trailer battery when we are camping without a hookup. It looks like it would be a great choice for the job, I like all the different cables and adapters that come with it.
However, like another reviewer noted, my panel arrived damaged. Not just a couple of cracks, but shattered. The box was marked fragile, but was not packed accordingly. No styrofoam peanuts, no plastic cushion bags, just some wadded up paper to take up the extra space in the shipping box. The shipping box didn't even look very beat up. I called customer service and was very pleased with their prompt replacement. However, the replacement unit arrived in the same shape. Shattered. I returned both of them and got my money refunded. I purchased a similar Sunsei unit at a local store and have been pleased with it.
Amazon, either you have a bunch of broken product on your shelves, or you need to change how you ship fragile items. Or both. |
Well worth the money

i had just bought this panel at Bass Pro Shops and i took it out of the box and was satesfied at how such a small device can top off a deep cycle battery. i need this because i use a Deep cycle battery to run a minn kota 30lb thrust trolling motor.
i also like the fact that the charge is very sensitive even in a room with very little light, in other words dosent take no light as being a good answer, i highly recommend it for anyone that loves being outdoors |

| This is a nice little solar panel and I am not disappointed that I bought it. I would buy another one if I need one. I don't know how waterproof it is as I haven't used it in the rain. If you need a nice little solar panel then I'd suggest that you buy this one as it is a good quality product..Cheers. |
Great Product But......

I bought the SE-500 about 2 weeks ago and, I loved it, yes loved it. I bought this for charging the battery on my kayak, and it did the job very well. It took a couple of days but it got the job done. Yesterday I was loading my kayak into the back of my truck and I had left the cell on top of my kayak. As I was loading it, my new se-500 slid right off and hit the ground face down. I thought to myself O-SH**! Well since it didn't fall very far I was thinking it was OK but well....not so much......I contacted the company to see if they could help me out. They said, "Unfortunately, our warranty does not cover physical damage. We don't have any service centers to service the unit either." So ok, it was my fault....but no service centers??? I just bought this thing, now it's a piece of junk?!!!
On their website it also says, "Sunsei® is a customer-centric company. From pre-purchase decision making, to technical support, through our warranty guarantees, we are renowned for our commitment to customer satisfaction and expert advice."
Customer satifaction with no Service Centers....Hmmmmm thank god I didn't buy one of their more expensive models. If you buy one of these things they are great, but don't ever damage it, drop it or hit it with a rock, baseball, hail, ice, and you wouldn't want a bunch of kids playing around it either, it gets expensive really fast....with no service centers to repair damage your fault or not....not cool Im not satisfied. I'm giving the se-500 3 stars because it was actually a good product 1 second before it hit the ground, otherwise sunsei customer satifaction 1 or none.

The product is very nice and works as advertised. Sunsei did a nice job for the most part. Only issue with its design is the caps that cover the 2 power jacks on it fall off easily and are easily lost.
Other than that, the only problem is upon receiving it, it had two large cracks across the glass. It still works, but is no longer weatherproof. You cannot see these until you open and remove the panel from its blister pack. Mine was shipped from Vermont to Chicago via UPS. Even though the box had "FRAGILE" printed on it, they didn't take good care shipping it. In the future I'll look for this sort of product in an outdoors recreation store in the area. |
