Q2: Can the solar generator charge and discharge simultaneously?
A: Yes, this power station supports pass-through charging, allowing it to be charged while simultaneously powering other devices.
Q3: What solar panel should I choose?
A: The input port of this power station supports a maximum input of 100W. It is recommended to use a 100W or 68W solar panel to maximize charging speed.
Q4: Can this power my deep freezer for several hours and can I charge it with solar panels during this?
A: The ability to power a deep freezer depends on its voltage and power consumption. You can calculate the estimated working time using the formula in Q1. Yes, you can charge the power station via solar panels while it is in use.
