Important Safety Instructions
  • Do not expose the solar panels to corrosive materials.
  • Do not operate the solar panels in the rain, or near a fire source.
  • During operation, place the solar panels at a location free from any overhanging branches or obstructions to prevent falling objects from scratching the solar panel surfaces.
  • If you are using the solar panels in windy conditions, always secure the panels to the ground using the stand nails to prevent the solar panels from being blown away by the wind gusts.
  • Alternatively, you may also tie the solar panels to wall surfaces or on the rooftop of your vehicle. Remember to untie and store the solar panels before driving away in the vehicle.
  • During storage, transportation, and operation, do not subject the solar panels to uneven forces as the solar panels cannot withstand high bending forces.

Setting Up the Solar Panels

1. Firstly, find a suitable location clear of any overhanging branches or obstructions, with plenty of exposure to sunlight.
2. Next, unfold the solar panels and lay them flat on the ground.
3. Optionally, you may also tilt the solar panels by using the stands to maximize exposure to the sun:

For 30 degrees
By default, spreading the stands open to the maximum will put the solar panels’ tilt angle to 30 degrees.

  • Charging the PowerStation1500
    Connect the solar panel charging cables from both solar panels to the two Anderson connectors on the Y Anderson to DC 7909 Adapter cable. Then, connect the DC 7909 connector on the other end of the adapter cable to the 0.31 in. (8 mm) input port on the PowerStation1500.

  • Charging Other Devices with the USB Output Ports

Your devices should then show that they are being charged.
