The solar panel requires full, direct sunlight to charge your camera. Grey skies,
rainy days, and other inclement weather conditions may hinder the ability of the
solar panel to generate power.
•
For best results, the solar panel should be tilted towards the sun. The optimum
angle varies throughout the year, depending on the seasons and your location.
As a general rule, the solar panel should be facing the equator (i.e. in the northern
hemisphere, solar panel faces south; in the southern hemisphere, solar panel
faces north).
•
Preferably mount the solar panel somewhere that receives plenty of sunlight,
between 10am and 3pm, to fully sustain your camera's power needs all year round.
Avoid placing in a shady area. Shading from trees and buildings will substantially
reduce the output of the solar panel.
•
The solar panel is designed to provide a "trickle charge," topping up and
maintaining the camera's battery charge level based upon the amount of sunlight
received daily. It is not intended to power a flat camera or to fully charge a camera
from a low battery state. We recommend fully charging your camera via your
regular USB charger before attaching to the solar panel.
•
Periodically clean the solar panel with a soft cloth and warm water. Keep the solar
panel surface clear of leaves and debris for optimum performance.
