5. Instruccions de funcionament

The FlexSolar 20W Portable Solar Panel converts sunlight directly into electricity. It does not store power internally, so devices must be connected while the panel is exposed to sunlight.

• Dispositius de càrrega: Once the panel is set up in direct sunlight, connect your smartphone, power bank, GPS, or other compatible USB device to either the USB-A (5V/3A Max) or USB-C (5V/3A Max) port.
• Indicador de càrrega: A red LED indicator on the control box will illuminate when the panel is receiving sufficient sunlight and generating power.
• Rendiment òptim: The panel achieves up to 24% conversion efficiency in ideal conditions (clear, direct sunlight). Charging speed will vary based on sun intensity, cloud cover, and device power requirements.
• Càrrega simultània: You can charge two devices simultaneously, but the total output will be shared between them.
