Is Nomad 20 chainable with other Nomad panels?

Yes, but only on some Goal Zero Nomad Solar Panels. You can plug the Charge Cable into the chaining ports on Nomad 20 Solar Panels and larger.

Chaining panels is a great way to collect more power from the sun and recharge devices quicker. You can chain up to 150W of solar panels together. 

We recommend no more than four in a chain (see the NOTE below). 

1. Plug the 8mm Charge Cable into another Nomad Solar Panel’s 8mm input. 

2. Using the 8mm Charge Cable of the final panel, plug into a Sherpa Power Bank or Goal Zero Yeti Portable Power Station. You could also plug into the USB port on the last panel to charge USB powered devices. 
 

After four solar panels are chained together, you might notice something called line loss, which has to do with the loss of voltages over long distances. The farther the power has to travel through cables, from panel to panel, the more power you will lose.
