Yes, but only if the appliance is drawing less than the output of the panel which is 45 Watts – 3Amp. Since appliance input current needs vary, you will have to refer to the appliance manufacturer determine out the unit’ power requirements. In most cases, users connect solar panels to 12Volt batteries that then feed power to the appliance.
