The Goal Zero Boulder 200W is a 200-watt monocrystalline (portable) option best suited to portable briefcase deployment. Briefcase with built-in kickstands.
Overview
The Goal Zero Boulder 200 Briefcase is a pair of tempered-glass 100W panels hinged together that fold into a carry case — a rugged, portable 200W array for boondocking, camping, or home backup rather than a permanent rooftop install.
Like any panel it generates power only in sunlight and doesn't store a charge; it's designed to recharge a portable power station, and pairs most directly with Goal Zero's Yeti line.
Key features
- Two 100W tempered-glass panels (14–21.8V) hinged into a folding briefcase
- Aluminum frame with reinforced corner protection
- Included canvas carry bag for transport
- Adjustable stand — angle toward the sun and re-aim as it moves
- Best paired with a portable power station (e.g. Goal Zero Yeti)

Roof-load fit for manufactured homes
A portable unit, so there is no permanent roof dead load — deploy on the ground and stow when not in use.
How a rigid module's weight stacks up against lightweight flexible panels — the key roof-load factor:
Pros & cons
👍 Pros
- Briefcase with built-in kickstands
👎 Cons
- Portable form factor — not a permanent rooftop solution
Is the Goal Zero Boulder 200W right for your mobile home?
Choose this panel if your priority is portable briefcase deployment. As a rigid module, it delivers the most watts per dollar when mounted on a ground rack, carport, or accessory structure rather than the home's thin roof deck.
