NOTE: The internal 80W charger can deliver a net charge of up to 70W to the battery, so the maximum charging wattage that will show on the intelligent LCD screen is “70W” (this is normal).
NOTE: The 7 hour charge time may vary depending on your AC outlet power and the climate (Battery Generator may charge more slowly in very high or low temperatures).

Charging your Battery Generator from a solar panel
Estimated Charge Time: 4 hours to full
The estimated 4-hour charge time is based on a 200
Watt solar panel in ideal clear, sunny conditions.your
Battery Generator is compatible with all standard solar
panels. You may also use smaller, lower-wattage solar
panels to charge your Battery Generator (charge times
will vary according to the wattage of your panel).
To obtain the fastest charge time, position your solar
panel where it will receive the maximum exposure to
direct sunlight. If the solar panel is placed in shade or is
used in cloudy conditions, it may take significantly
longer to charge your Battery Generator.
You may also keep your Battery Generator connected
to the solar panel for continued charging. It is
recommended to keep your Battery Generator charged
so it is ready any time.
