FAQs
Can I use this charger to charge my laptop?
This charger is primarily designed for mobile devices like phones and tablets; it may not provide enough power to effectively charge most laptops.
Is the charger completely waterproof?
It features an IP67 rating, meaning it is dust-tight and protected against short periods of water immersion, such as splashes or rain.
What happens if a cloud passes over?
The output power will decrease temporarily. Modern devices will automatically resume charging once the sunlight returns.
How long is the warranty?
The product comes with a 5-year warranty period.
Does it store power internally?
No, this is a solar panel charger and does not contain an internal battery. It must be connected to a device or a power bank to store energy.
Troubleshooting
Device is not charging
Ensure the panels are in direct, unobstructed sunlight and check that the charging cable is securely plugged into the port.
Slow charging speed
Check if there are any shadows cast on the panels or if the sky is overcast, as efficiency drops significantly without direct sunlight.
