    Depends on what you do on the laptop. If you only use it while you are awake and have a big enough battery capacity, it should be possible. This is a 90W panel, combine it with a 200Wh portable battery bank and you should never run out of power if all you are doing is light on compute.

      Have you tried it/know someone who has? I’m always weary of wattage on solar panels as there is so much marketing inflation and bs.

        This one is from my local electronics nerd shop which i trust. I can only speak about germany, but generally i have never had inaccurate ratings on solar panels, as that would be fairly illegal i think. I installed a few 2x400W sets for people and they all ended up putting out more than 800W peak power. Idk why these small scale ones should be any different. Ofcourse the rated 90 Watts will only be reached under clear sky with a good sun angle and not too much ambient heat.
