4. Setup and Charging

Before first use, fully charge the FLASHFISH P60. The unit can be charged via a wall adapter, car charger, or solar panel.

Figure 4.1: The three primary methods for charging the FLASHFISH P60. These include a 100W solar panel (approx. 9-10 hours), a wall charging adapter (approx. 8 hours), and a car charger (approx. 8-10 hours).

Charging Methods:

1. AC Wall Charger: Connect the provided AC adapter to the input port and plug it into a standard wall outlet. Charging time is approximately 8 hours.
2. Car Charger: Connect the provided car charger to the input port and plug it into your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket. Charging time is approximately 8-10 hours.
3. Solar Panel (Optional): Connect a compatible 13-22V DC solar panel (not included) to the input port. Charging time with a 100W solar panel is approximately 9-10 hours, depending on sunlight intensity.

Figure 4.2: The power station charging from a wall outlet. It features automatic separation upon full charge to prevent energy waste and overcharging. A full charge from 0-100% takes approximately 7 hours when using a 1xTSP100W solar panel (not included) under ideal conditions.

The unit features an automatic separation function that stops charging once the battery is full, preventing overcharging and energy consumption.
