Will the Renogy 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel work with the Anker SOLIX C300 DC?
Yes. One Renogy 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel works with the Anker SOLIX C300 DC: about 24.6 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 28 V limit, and about 100 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on XT60), about 100 W.
Works
1 x 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel into the C300 DC (1 panel on XT60) stays inside 11 to 28 V and under 8.2 A, even at 20F.
- The brand does not say whether its voltage limit is open-circuit or working voltage, so we check against the stricter open-circuit number.
- Anker's manual: the panel voltage must be 11 to 28V or the station can be damaged.
- Use an MC4 to XT60 solar cable.

Quick answers
Will the Renogy 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel work with the Anker SOLIX C300 DC?
Yes. One Renogy 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel works with the Anker SOLIX C300 DC: about 24.6 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 28 V limit, and about 100 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on XT60), about 100 W.
Can I connect two 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel panels to the C300 DC?
Yes, 2 panels in parallel on XT60. That gives about 100 W.
What cable do I need to connect the 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel to the C300 DC?
Use an MC4 to XT60 solar cable.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One 100W Lightweight Flexible Solar Panel goes from 22.5 V on its label to about 24.6 V at 20°F and 25.4 V at 0°F. The C300 DC accepts up to 28 V on the XT60.

Other panels that work with the C300 DC
- Anker SOLIX C300 DC: solar input 11 to 28 V on the Solar in (XT60). Anker SOLIX does not say whether this limit is open-circuit or working voltage, so we use the stricter reading: open-circuit voltage on your coldest morning.
- Cold raises panel voltage: we add 0.30% per °C below 77F (25°C), a typical figure, since this panel does not publish its own. At 20F one panel's 22.5 V becomes 24.6 V.
- Current over the 8.2 A cap is safe: the station takes 8.2 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 100 W on this input.
- Cold-morning voltage uses 0.30% per °C, typical for crystalline panels. This panel's own value is not published.
- Expected watts are the best case in full sun. Real-world midday output is usually 60 to 80% of that.
