» Sun exposure is most effective at midday.
Connection to the power station or other devices:
First connect the cable to the power station, then connect the solar panel. Check
if the loading process starts.
Hints:
» If you want to charge devices such as a laptop, you need an appropriate adap-
ter (optional) and the power supply unit.
» Be sure to check compatibility and voltage ratings.
» The solar panel generates electricity as soon as it is exposed to the sun. Pro-
tect it from direct sunlight before connecting.
If charging does not start:
» Wait a few seconds.
» Make sure the solar panel can absorb enough solar radiation.
» Check that the cable connection is properly connected and that the correct
cable is being used.
» Disconnect and reconnect the devices.
When charging starts:
» For better heat dissipation, place the power station or connected device in a
cool place and turn it off.
Connect several solar panels together:
Lead-acid batteries or lithium-ion batteries (12V/24V) can also be charged with
the solar panel. In this case, you must use the solar panel in combination with a
solar charger control module (optionally available).
