TIPS & TRICKS FOR SOLAR PANELS
-
Your solar panel collects energy, but does not store it. In order to use it, connect it to a power station, or charge your devices directly with the cables attached to the panel.
-
Adjust your solar panel throughout the day for optimal sun exposure.
-
Don't forget that you can still use your panel on a cloudy day, it will just be less efficient.
POWER OUTAGE-PROOF
Use this compact power station to charge your phone, run your wi-fi router, or power a portable fridge while you wait for the power to come back on.
