    Quality !      Tier 1 solar panels are made by manufacturers that meet strict financial, operational, and bankability criteria set by BloombergNEF. While not a measure of physical quality, this designation indicates a stable, vertically integrated company capable of honoring its 25- to 30-year warranties.

    I just saw EcoFlow NextGen 220W Bifacial Portable Solar Panel from off grid stores. it may be best for my home
    because it 
    Collect up to 25% more energy with a two-in-one bifacial design and IP68 rating protects against water and dust.

     Let me see here, 5 year warranty on the Eco-Flow panel at the link. Portable panels have low life spans.

    Most Tier 1 panel manufacturers have a 25 year warranty!
    And bi-facial panels collecting up to 25% more is marketing language if you find it in print.
    The "up to" could end up being less, a lot less in practice.

    I laugh when I see Bi facial panels lying on flat ground. Can't even see how nice they look on the back side. Even if they do get you a few more watts, they are really a work of art,

    Yes seeing bifacial panels up on a pergola are cool looking. I don't understand why so many people think solar panels are ugly. I've always thought they were pretty cool looking. I've got it quite the collection of old antique panels on my garage wall.
