Can solar panels store energy inside?

They cannot because solar panels convert solar energy into electrical energy and transmit the electrical energy as direct current to an EcoFlow portable power station. The solar panel itself cannot store electrical energy.

Why doesn’t the solar panel have a USB output like others brand?

USB operated around 6V. Literature says these go to 12-18V. (ex: a car battery). USB / 6V is fine for charging a USB device, however 12+ V will rapidly overcharge / destroy the battery and at worst catch it on fire or destroy the electronics through over voltage. For safety, they don't use a USB plug to avoid this type of mistake.

What are the panel dimensions and is there a way to hang this from the ends?

You cannot hang these panels from the eyelet holes as they will not support the weight of the 400 watt panels without the risk of tearing out.

Can the power station be used while using the solar panels?

I am still waiting arrival of my order, but I've been asking Ecoflow support questions plus googling about the same question. I found some information from searching and also got responses from Ecoflow support, and basically, they don't recommend keeping the panels plugged in all the time. From what I understand, the reason is that if this done, the batteries might not last as long. It kind of defeats the purpose of the power station supporting passthrough charging, but I can understand their reasoning.
