How to Use
- Firstly, please check the sunlight environment.
- Place the solar charger under strong sunlight (such as 9:00 am to 17:00, different countries have different effective illumination times)
- Angle solar panels toward sunlight vertical direction, which makes devices get the maximum conversion efficiency of solar energy.
- Do remove any possible shelters.
- Secondly, how to charge for smartphones and laptops, etc.
- Please check the indicator light status, LED indicator light on means the output current is working.
- Make the proper connection between your device and the product with provided cables or certificated cables, With multiple overcharging technologies, it will automatically turn off when your device’s battery is full.
- Check whether the cellphone/laptop and other devices have charging status or not (the charging current of 18V100W is less than 2A If lack of intensive sunlight, most laptops need more than 3A current if it can not charge your laptop, it is suggested to turn off your laptop and then recharge it)
Other usages: we provide two kinds of cables for attaching with vehicle’s batteries.
- For cars, make sure you have a “live” lighter socket: the socket in the car gets power at all times from the battery, whether the key is in the ignition or not.
- For automobiles and motorboats, Please coordinate with control modules and attach it to your battery directly with red and black Clamps. But you need to disconnect it every time you start the vehicle.
( Notice: Do connect the red(+ )and black(-)clamps to your battery’s positive and negative appropriately before making a connection with the solar panel. To remove the product, you need to disconnect the solar panel first, then remove the alligator clip and battery connection. Keep the terminals and battery casing clean.)

- Solar energy is for emergency purposes, the charging takes a long time; For better effect, it is recommended to use the charging with a power bank, the current is more stable and safe.
- When charging, we don’t advise long-term outdoor exposure of mobile phones and other devices, high temperatures may lead to the fail of the battery.
- The product is made from recyclable solar panels and the solar panels belong to physical batteries which can be used for many times, even after five years of use and marital aging, its power can still achieve more than 80%.
Cautions
- Do not scratch the surface of the solar panel with a sharp object.
- Place the solar panels in direct sunlight, and adjust their angle towards sunlight (vertical direction )to achieve the optimal charging effect.
- Do not place the charger in the rain for emergency purposes, and we do not recommend long-term outdoor exposure.
- It is normal that solar panel get hotter during working time as it is recharged by solar energy.
( Attention: it’s unable to use in a cloudy day. If you can’t test the solar charger due to bad weather, then you can use the 1000W bath heater. Just open the bathroom heater, keeping a 20-30cm distance from the lamp, it can reach 50-60 efficiency of the design capacity, which can be used for a short test.)
