Can the Go Power DuraLite Charge A Jackery 500 Generator?I have a few questions regarding this pa
Question:
Hello, I have a few questions regarding this panel. 1. I am assuming the SAE plug included with the kit is ZAMP style with a shielded male and I can plug directly into the Zamp port on my trailer with no other adapters needing to be purchased? 2. I would also like to charge my Jackery 500 with this panel. The Jackery uses an 8mm male barrel plug to charge. Having its own charge controller it appears I can bypass the charge controller on this panel and come directly from the panel into the Jackery. What is the port coming out of the panel? Is it Anderson PowerPole? 3. Is there any weather resistance in this panel/charge controller?

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Go Power DuraLite Portable Solar Panel with Digital Solar Controller # GP66FR is compatible with your pre-wired ZAMP port on your trailer, and you will not need any additional adapters.
You may also want to check the polarity of your Zamp plug as they have been known to wire things backwards. I have included an FAQ that goes into a bit more detail on this.
For your Jackery 500 it is not recommended to bypass the included charge controller however this panel does has both an 8mm barrel port as well as an Anderson Power Pole connector so it will accept either connection style.
Finally, the Go Power DuraLite Portable Solar Panel with Digital Solar Controller # GP66FR is weather resistant and would be able to handle light rain and some dew easily. I would advise to not leave it out in heavy rain, however.
