Anybody tried the new Eco-Worthy HPBC N-Type Panels

Been shopping for 200W panels and almost pulled the trigger on some 24V Rich Solar panels but stumbled on these newly released Eco-Worthy panels with no busbars and 7" shorter and 1/2" narrower than the traditional P-type mono panels I was looking at. 10% lighter than the traditional panel, claim 30% better angular production and definitely a more workable in terms of layout on the RV. Eco-Worthy listing

Find it interesting that they quote only 800Wh of production per day.

4 hours average production (800Wh) is not unreasonable claim (except in the depths of Winter). However the claim of up to 25% efficiency is one I have my doubts about. My experience with other Eco-Worthy panels is they tend to max at 80% production (best conditions) so it would be interesting to see if these do the same.

Plus when I see the magic words of "up to" I start looking for my sweepstakes winnings.

The new Renogy 200W shadowflux N-Type panel might be worth a look, run's at 36 Volts.

I am considering the Shadowflux as well. 4" wider than the Eco-Worthy but the shade performance is a benefit in the RV application. They are a price premium but might be worth it. If the Eco-Worthy was available in a "24V" panel, it would be worth the try. Both Renogy and Eco-Worthy are claiming 25% which might be true given the smaller footprint vs. traditional 22-23% panels.

Also checking out both 100w 'N-type' and 200w Renogy Shadowflux. 99% RV boondocking. Looking to put together 400w of solar for either a single 200ah or 2-100ah parallel LiPo4 batteries. Panels to be mounted on a pickup camper and I might add angle adjustable mounts. Shading is always a concern since I camp in the trees, but on the other hand, my usage is minimal, not even an inverter.
Looking for advise on whether I'm overthinking this by looking at either "N-type' and/or Shadowflux? Don't mind spending the coin if there are real benefits.
I'm not a complete solar newbie but it's been 10 years since I installed solar/Lead Acid in my 5th wheel First post here so TIA.

After the terrible customer service experience I've had with Eco-worthy, I wouldn't recommend their products to anyone. The bifacials that that I bought from them grossly under perform compared to the sunpower panels I bought on facebook for half the price per watt.
