What Is a Bifacial Solar Panel?
A bifacial solar panel can capture solar energy through both its front and rear surfaces. The front of the Anker SOLIX PS400 collects direct sunlight, while the back can capture light reflected from the ground or another surface beneath the panel.
The rear-facing cells can provide additional power when the panel is positioned above reflective or open surfaces such as light-colored concrete, sand, or snow. Under favorable conditions, Anker states that the dual-sided design can generate up to 10% more power than front-side generation alone.
The amount of additional energy will vary depending on sunlight intensity, panel position, shading, temperature, weather, and the color and reflectivity of the surface beneath the panel.
25%+ Conversion Efficiency with N-Type Solar Cells
The new Anker PS400 uses next-generation N-type solar cells capable of more than 25% conversion efficiency. These high-efficiency cells are engineered to minimize energy loss while maintaining productive solar generation in high-temperature outdoor conditions.
Higher conversion efficiency allows the panel to turn more available sunlight into usable electricity for a connected portable power station. Actual charging performance will depend on environmental conditions and the solar-input limitations of the connected equipment.
Portable 400W Solar Power
The upgraded Anker SOLIX PS400 combines substantial 400W solar output with a portable, foldable design. It weighs only 21.9 lb, including its integrated stand, making it significantly easier to carry and set up than many conventional 400W portable solar panels.
When folded, the PS400 measures only 22.3 × 38.7 × 3.2 inches. Its built-in carrying design makes it suitable for RV trips, camping, mobile work, emergency backup preparation, outdoor recreation, and off-grid solar charging.
Built for Outdoor Use
The Anker SOLIX PS400 Bifacial Portable Solar Panel is constructed with a reinforced aluminum frame and impact-resistant materials. An IP68 rating provides protection against water and dust for dependable outdoor operation.
Although the panel is IP68 rated, Anker recommends avoiding prolonged exposure to heavy rain and never intentionally submerging the panel. Keep solar connectors protected and follow the included safety instructions during outdoor use.
The black metal frame may become hot after extended exposure to direct sunlight. Avoid touching the heated frame with bare hands and wear protective gloves when repositioning the panel.
Easy Solar Panel Setup
Unfold the Anker PS400 on a stable, open surface.
Position the panel toward direct, unobstructed sunlight.
Use the integrated stand to place the panel at approximately 35°.
Connect the appropriate included solar charging cable.
Verify that the connected power station supports the panel’s voltage, current, wattage, and connector configuration.
Monitor charging performance and reposition the panel if sunlight conditions change.
For the best results, keep the entire solar surface free from shade. Even partial shading from trees, buildings, vehicles, or nearby equipment may reduce total output.

Important Solar Compatibility Information
Before connecting the Anker PS400, confirm that your portable power station supports the panel’s 48V DC, 8.33A PV output and 400W rated power. The connected equipment’s permitted voltage, current, wattage, and connector requirements must not be exceeded.
When connecting multiple solar panels, calculate the combined voltage, current, and wattage before making any connection. Multiple-panel compatibility depends on the power station’s solar-input specifications and the series or parallel wiring configuration.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the new bifacial Anker PS400?
Yes. This is the upgraded Anker SOLIX PS400 Bifacial Portable Solar Panel, manufacturer SKU AS340111 and UPC 194644338435. It replaces the previous single-sided Anker 400W portable solar panel.
How much power does the Anker PS400 produce?
The PS400 has a total rated output of 400W. Real-world output may be lower because solar production varies with sunlight intensity, cloud cover, temperature, panel orientation, shading, and the solar-input capacity of the connected power station.
How does the bifacial PS400 generate additional power?
The front captures direct sunlight while the rear captures reflected light. In favorable environments with reflective or open surfaces, this dual-sided design can produce up to 10% more power.
Is the Anker SOLIX PS400 waterproof?
The PS400 is rated IP68 for water and dust resistance. Anker advises users to avoid prolonged heavy rain and not to submerge the panel in water.
Why isn’t my PS400 producing the full 400W?
A solar panel’s listed wattage represents rated output under controlled test conditions. Actual production depends on sunlight strength, weather, temperature, panel angle, obstructions, shading, cable conditions, and the connected power station’s input limits.
What is the best angle for the Anker PS400?
Anker designed the panel around an approximately 35° position to support productive solar generation during peak daylight hours. The bracket allows slight adjustment when needed.
How do I clean the Anker PS400 solar panel?
Use a soft cloth to remove loose dust and dirt. Wipe the solar surface with a damp cloth to remove remaining residue, and promptly clear heavy dirt or debris to help maintain solar performance.
Can the PS400 charge a non-Anker power station?
Compatibility depends on the power station’s supported solar-input voltage, amperage, wattage, and connector configuration. Confirm all electrical and connector requirements with the power-station manufacturer before connecting the panel.
Can I connect more than one PS400 solar panel?
Some portable power stations may support multiple solar panels. The combined voltage, current, and wattage must remain within the power station’s published solar-input limits. Consult the power station manual before creating a series or parallel solar array.
