Will the Jackery SolarSaga 100 Prime work with the EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus?
Yes. One Jackery SolarSaga 100 Prime works with the EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus: about 24.9 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 55 V limit, and about 99 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on XT60i), about 198 W.
Works
1 x SolarSaga 100 Prime into the RIVER 3 Plus (1 panel on XT60i) stays inside 11 to 55 V and under 13 A, even at 20F.
- EcoFlow's manual: keep the panel voltage under 55V to avoid damaging the station.
- The solar port is also the car charging port, so you can use one or the other at a time.
- The solar cable (solar to XT60i) is not in the box.
- Model JS-100E in the manual. Bifacial: 108 W with light on the back (BNPI).
- Use an MC4 to XT60i solar cable.

Quick answers
Will the Jackery SolarSaga 100 Prime work with the EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus?
Yes. One Jackery SolarSaga 100 Prime works with the EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus: about 24.9 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 55 V limit, and about 99 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on XT60i), about 198 W.
Can I connect two SolarSaga 100 Prime panels to the RIVER 3 Plus?
Yes, 2 panels in parallel on XT60i. That gives about 198 W.
What cable do I need to connect the SolarSaga 100 Prime to the RIVER 3 Plus?
Use an MC4 to XT60i solar cable.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One SolarSaga 100 Prime goes from 22.7 V on its label to about 24.9 V at 20°F and 25.6 V at 0°F. The RIVER 3 Plus accepts up to 55 V on the XT60i.

Other panels that work with the RIVER 3 Plus
- EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus: solar input 11 to 55 V on the Solar in (XT60i). 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 22.7 V becomes 24.9 V.
- Current over the 13 A cap is safe: the station takes 13 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 220 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.
