BLUETTI, an innovator in portable power and RV energy solutions, officially debuted the SORA 500 Portable Solar Panel in the U.S.
Designed for RV travel, camping and off-grid power, the SORA 500 addresses a common RV power challenge: supplying high-efficiency solar charging without sacrificing valuable vehicle storage space.
RV travelers often struggle to balance high wattage with limited space. This 500-watt portable solar panel resolves that trade-off by folding 500 watts of rated solar output into a compact 22.4 x 17.5 x 3.3-inch frame — packing down like a slim camp table. Weighing 28.4 pounds, it moves between an RV, campsite, garage or backyard without permanent installation, the company said.
Built with premium N-Type monocrystalline cells offering up to 25% conversion efficiency, SORA 500 features an ETFE-coated surface for easier cleaning after outdoor use and IP67-rated dust and water resistance for campsite conditions. A standard MC4 connector helps it pair with compatible solar generators and portable power stations, while the portable form factor lets users position the panel for stronger sunlight as shade, angle, temperature, cable compatibility and connected-device input limits allow.
To maximize the SORA 500’s performance, BLUETTI integrates the panel across flagship power setups to match various travel styles:
- Weekend Getaways & Road Trips: Elite 300 kits cover plug-and-play RV essentials, while Elite 300 Solar Generator + Charger 2 Alternator & Solar Charger adds up to 1,200 watts vehicle and solar charging for travelers who want to recover power during the drive.
- Extended Boondocking: Apex 300 Solar Generator supports longer off-grid stays with 3,840W output, dual 120V/240V support, and capacity that can expand from 2.8 kWh to 19.4 kWh.
- Full-Time RV Living: RVSolar 5kWh RV Kit supports 5,000-watt output, AC/DC smart-panel control, touchscreen or app monitoring, alternator and shore charging, and flexible RV solar options.
