Will the Jackery SolarSaga 100 Air work with the EcoFlow RIVER 2?
Yes, with a catch. Fine in mild weather (29.7V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 32.5V, above the 30V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage. Two panels: works, with a catch (2 panels in parallel on Solar input), about 110 W.
Works, with a catch
It charges, but read the note. Best option: 1 panel on Solar input.
- Fine in mild weather (29.7V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 32.5V, above the 30V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage.
- Bifacial: Jackery also rates it at 110 W with light on the back (BNPI); the checker uses the front-only figures.
- Use the solar charging cable that came with the station (MC4 on the panel side).

Quick answers
Will the Jackery SolarSaga 100 Air work with the EcoFlow RIVER 2?
Yes, with a catch. Fine in mild weather (29.7V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 32.5V, above the 30V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage. Two panels: works, with a catch (2 panels in parallel on Solar input), about 110 W.
Can I connect two SolarSaga 100 Air panels to the RIVER 2?
Yes, 2 panels in parallel on Solar input. That gives about 110 W, with one catch: Fine in mild weather (29.7V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 32.5V, above the 30V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage..
What cable do I need to connect the SolarSaga 100 Air to the RIVER 2?
Use the solar charging cable that came with the station (MC4 on the panel side).
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One SolarSaga 100 Air goes from 29.7 V on its label to about 32.5 V at 20°F and 33.5 V at 0°F. The RIVER 2 accepts up to 30 V on the Solar input.

Other panels that work with the RIVER 2
- EcoFlow RIVER 2: solar input 11 to 30 V on the Solar in (Solar input). EcoFlow sets this limit on open-circuit voltage (Voc), so we hold the panels' Voc on your coldest morning to it.
- 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 29.7 V becomes 32.5 V.
- Current over the 8 A cap is safe: the station takes 8 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 110 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.
