How Does This Product Work?

This Solar Trickle Charger features a solar panel that connects to your vehicle’s 12V battery either via the vehicle’s 12V plug socket or via the 12V battery’s terminals.
When this solar panel is connected to your 12V vehicle, the solar panel will absorb light from the sun which is converted into a 2.4W 12V DC electricity supply that charges your 12V battery.
The solar panel features an innovative THIN FILM technology that allows the solar panel to absorb UV light from a wide spectrum of natural light. This means the solar panel can even absorb light and charge your 12V battery in cloudy wintery conditions. The THIN FILM technology also allows the solar panel to perform under intense heat from the summer sun.

Operating Instructions

Warning : Never use the solar trickle when the vehicle is running or when you are driving.
IMPORTANT : When using this solar trickle, please ENSURE the solar panel is positioned correctly so that it is able to absorb as much natural light as possible. This solar panel will not be effective in absorbing light when placed in dark, shaded areas.

Before installing or using this solar trickle charger, please ensure your vehicle is fully switched off.
Position the solar panel in a suitable location that does not obstruct the driver’s view. The panel can be tilted to a suitable angle to enable the panel to get the most direct sunlight.
Connect the panel to your 12V battery, either via the 12V plug socket connection or via the 12V battery terminal connection cables. When using the 12V battery terminal connection cables, please ensure you connect the crocodile to the correct battery terminal. The black lead will connect to the negative (-) terminal and the red lead will connect to the positive (+) terminal.
If you want to permanently install the panel, please use the four stainless steel mounting screws included.

IMPORTANT : To increase heat dissipation from the solar, please use a heat-resistant spacer (not included) which should be placed in between the panel and the mounting surface. Please note, we do not supply heat-resistant spacer.
