Frequently Asked Questions

What will my NOMAD 7charge?

The NOMAD 7 will directly charge most USB and and 12V devices (not tablets).

Can I use the USB and 12V ports to charge devices simultaneously?

Yes. The NOMAD 7 will split the incoming solar power between the two ports to charge devices simultaneously. Some devices may not be compatible.

Why am I having trouble charging my smart phone?

Smart phones require very specific, consistent input. If your NOMAD 7 is angled perfectly, there shouldn't be an issue. However, most charging issues with a smart phone are made simpler by incorporating a GOAL ZERO power pack as an intermediary (such as GUIDE 10 PLUS).

Is the NOMAD 7 waterproof?

The NOMAD 7 is weather-resistant and will not be harmed if exposed to rain or snow.

What kind of solar cells do you use in the NOMAD 7?

We use state-of-the-art monocrystalline technology in the NOMAD 7 because it delivers more power per square inch than any other solar technology on the market.

Can the NOMAD 7 be chained with other devices?

Yes, you can chain up to four NOMAD 7s.
