Ok so it isnt the cheapest pannel of this type and size that you can get, you already know that.so what is different about it? how well does it work?Unlike some other epoxy covered PCB mounted solar cell items this one is much lighter, it is not a thick coat epoxy style.this makes it much better for portability.when weight is important this mid sized multicell pannel was a good choice.and if your worried about it getting scratched, you can put a very thin piece of vinyl on top (often sold at the wallymart for a few bucks for a whole yard) that will cut output about 5-8% and makes it impervious.the one i got speced out correctally, the array in there doesnt waste a lot of space , like some arrays with too much gap between cell items.I put this one on top of a GPS device with an acrylic hinge, and connected a diode and a protection curcuit to use it to charge a oversized battery in the unit. it now forms 3 functions.1) charges the unit. if it sits inside on the window sil and catches a bit of light, the unit is now self sustaining for minor use. If i put it outside it could fully charge the FAT oversized 5amp li-poly cell in 2 days of brutal california sun. If i go walking with it in the sun, it runs the gps unit non-stop forever :-)the hinge allows it to be aimed into the sun, and to shade the battery/unit.2) caps the screen, via the hinge when i close the unit up it is now the top cap covering the screen. not the most durable cover i could put over the screen , but the most funtional one :-)3) Is a Sun hood , or shade, so when gpsing in the sun it keeps the unit charged and the sun off the unit at the same time.connections on these were at the "ends" of course to get power off the cell items, and the back of the PCB there is foil traces bringing the power to the Center of the pannel for a good location for connection.probably be good for solar charger , and solar car projects and lots of other stuff you can think of.lightweight, still good quality glass cell items, assembled at the voltage as speced.that about covers it. It did not dissapoint.
