Step 5:

Connect the solar panel to the camera with the micro USB cable.

NOTE:

  1. Make sure that there is NO blocking on the solar panel. The energy harvesting effciency drops drastically even when a small portion of the solar panel is blocked.
  2. Please don’t install the solar panel completely horizontally. Otherwise, your solar panel might accumulate dust and other debris easily. It’s advised to install the solar panel angularly to\ make it receive direct sunlight.
