Setup

Initial Charging

Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge your Boompods Obi Solar Powerbank using a USB-C cable connected to a wall adapter. This ensures the internal battery is at full capacity for optimal performance.

• Connect the provided USB-C cable to the power bank's USB-C input port.
• Connect the other end of the cable to a compatible USB wall charger (not included).
• The LED indicators on the power bank will illuminate to show the charging progress. All LEDs will be solid when fully charged.

Understanding LED Indicators

The power bank features LED indicators to display the remaining battery level and charging status:

• 4 LEDs: 75-100% charged
• 3 LEDs: 50-75% charged
• 2 LEDs: 25-50% charged
• 1 LED: 0-25% charged (recharge soon)

Operating Instructions

Charging Your Devices

The Boompods Obi Solar Powerbank is equipped with multiple output ports to charge various devices.

1. Connect your device's charging cable to one of the power bank's USB-A or USB-C output ports.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your smartphone, tablet, smartwatch, or other compatible device.
3. The power bank will automatically begin charging your device.

Solar Charging Function

The integrated solar panel allows for emergency charging when no power outlet is available. Solar charging is slower than wall charging and is intended for supplemental or emergency power.

• Place the power bank in direct sunlight with the solar panel facing upwards.
• Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the solar panel.
• The LED indicators will show charging activity, though it may be slower than traditional charging.
• For best results, use solar charging to maintain the battery level or for small top-ups, rather than for a full charge from empty.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• Wipe the power bank with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Keep the solar panel clean to ensure efficient charging.

Storage

• Store the power bank in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• For long-term storage, charge the power bank to approximately 50-75% every 3-6 months to preserve battery health.

Troubleshooting

Power Bank Not Charging

• Ensure the charging cable is securely connected to both the power bank and the power source.
• Try a different USB-C cable or wall adapter.
• Verify the power source is active.

Devices Not Charging from Power Bank

• Check if the power bank has sufficient charge (refer to LED indicators).
• Ensure the charging cable connecting the device to the power bank is functional and properly connected.
• Try a different output port on the power bank.
• Confirm your device is compatible with the power bank's output specifications.

Slow Solar Charging

• Ensure the solar panel is in direct, unobstructed sunlight.
