GOAL ZERO NOMAD 10 Solar Panel User Guide
GET TO KNOW YOUR GEAR
HOW IT WORKS
Charging phones, power banks and other USB-powered devices
from the Nomad 10 is as easy as plugging in.
- Open your Nomad 10 and unfold the panels.
- Use the built-in kickstand to position the panel toward the sun.
- Plug your phone or device into the USB port located on the back side of the panel and charge up.
NOTE
A Goal Zero Flip power bank (sold separately) will fit securely into the Flip charging dock to collect and store power while on the move.
WHAT IT POWERS
AUTO RESTART
In low light conditions (i.e. lack of sunlight, shadow, dusk, etc.), some
devices, including smartphones, will automatically stop charging from a solar
panel due to a low current input.
The Nomad 10 features auto restart technology that knows the difference
between a device that has reached a fully charged state and one that
disconnects due to environmental causes. When the latter is detected, the
Nomad 10 will automatically resume charging to start charging the device
again. No extra work on your part is needed.
PRO TIP
When operating in low light conditions, we recommend pairing your solar panel with a portable power bank for the best charging experience possible. A Goal Zero Flip power bank (sold separately) will fit securely into the Nomad 10’s integrated Flip charging dock and allow you to collect and store a continuous stream of power to charge your device.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Is the Nomad 10 waterproof?
A: The best answer: it’s weatherproof. We’ve gone to great lengths to
ruggedize the Nomad 10; including beefing up the manufacturing process with
advanced lamination techniques so
it’ll slough off rain and snow.
Q: Does the Nomad 10 have a built-in battery?
A: No. In order to make the Nomad 10 as lightweight as possible, we chose to
sell batteries as an optional accessory. You can either plug your phone or
device into the Nomad 10 to charge up directly from the sun, or pair the panel
with one of our power banks to collect and store power for later. The Nomad 10
works seamlessly with our line of ultra-portable Goal Zero Flip power banks.
