Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
No power output / LED indicator offInsufficient sunlight; Panel not angled correctly; Cables loose or damaged; Junction box wet.Move panel to direct sunlight; Adjust angle towards sun; Check all cable connections; Ensure junction box is dry.
Slow charging speedPartial shading on panel; Suboptimal angle to sun; Cloudy weather; Device drawing too much power.Ensure no shadows on panel; Re-angle panel for direct sun; Charging speed will be lower in cloudy conditions; Try charging one device at a time.
Panel overheatingPoor ventilation; Extreme ambient temperature.Ensure adequate airflow around the panel; Move to a cooler, shaded area if possible, but still exposed to sun.
