Get Started; Outdoor Usage - Changers Maroshi User Manual

4. Get started

If you have the Kalhuohfummi and the Maroshi in front of you, you are ready to get started. Just insert the DC plug of the
solar module into the input jack of the Kalhuohfummi. In principle you can connect any solar battery to the solar module that
meets the technical specifications in Chapter 5.
The blinking frequency of the battery will let you know exactly how much power you are
generating at any given time – the faster the blinking, the more energy is being produced.
Use this blinking to work out the best position at any given time and place. The angle at
which the sun hits the panel can make a significant difference on your energy generation,
so try some different positions for maximum effect! Remember, the more power you generate,
the more you can upload and the more Changers credits you can unlock.
The included suction cups are perfect for attaching the panel to smooth surfaces. You can
use some imagination and mount the panel in innovative places. Bear in mind that a window
pane will filter out some solar energy, so try and avoid anything coming between the panel
and the sun.
Be careful setting your panel up outside – ensure it is securely attached to avoid it
potentially falling.
We encourage you to take your Maroshi panel with you – whether it's a road-trip, picnic,
day in the park or camping holiday. It's a great way to keep a mobile supply of power with
you. Make sure you keep the Kalhuohfummi battery out of direct sunlight and moisture
and remember that a car dashboard can get very hot, very fast.
