Solar Panel Preparation

Splice or Adapt?

The first verison of the solar charger came with a 4mm DC barrel jack on it. On older

versions (4mm) it would come with a converter cable.

If you have a newer v2 charger (June 2013+), connect a 2.1mm Terminal Block

Adapter (http://adafru.it/369) onto the panel using basic wires, or a 1.3mm to 2.1mm

adapter cable (http://adafru.it/2788) then plug that into the 2.1mm adapter. This is the

fastest method

If you have an older v1 charger, you can use the terminal block method above OR cut

the adapter cable in half and splice the 4mm connector onto the panel. The panel will

plug right into the board but its more work.

Voltaic Panels with 1.3mm Connectors

Grab one of our adapter cables, it will let you plug in the solar panel

directly (http://adafru.it/2788)
