Battery Management
-
The camera has a built-in high-capacity battery, which can be used for 2-3 months, assuming the camera wakes up 15 times per day and play video for 10 minutes each day.
NOTE: The battery durability depends on how frequently the camera is woken up. The more it wakes up, the faster the battery drains. It is recommended to lower down the ‘Motion Detection’ sensitivity or turn it off occasionally. -
When power is less than 20%, the App will send you reminding messages for charging in time.
-
Charge the camera with DC 5V 2A charger, until it is fully charged after 6-8 hours.
Solar Panel
-
Step
Please find a place which has sunlight for most of a day and adjust the angle to make sure maximum exposure.
The ZUMIMALL solar panel needs few hours of direct sunlight to convert solar energy into electricity. The conversion efficiency is affected by weather conditions, seasonal changes, geographic locations, etc. -
Step
Mount the bracket with the mounting template and the screws provided in the package -
Step
Slot the solar panel into the bracket and make sure it’s secure -
Step
Loosen the adjusting control on the bracket and adjust the angle of the solar panel to make it receive direct sunlight, and then retighten the adjusting control to secure your setting -
Step:
Connect the solar panel to the ZUMIMALL Camera with the micro USB cable.
Important Notes
- Make sure that there is NO blocking on the solar panel. The energy harvesting efficiency drops drastically even when a small portion of the solar panel is blocked.
- 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.
- Wipe the solar panel regularly to remove the dust or debris.
