7. Charging Methods

The Trevi RA 7F30 BT offers multiple ways to recharge its internal battery:

This is the primary and fastest charging method. Connect the supplied USB Type-C cable to the radio and a USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, computer, power bank).

7.2 Solar Charging

Place the radio with the solar panel facing direct sunlight. The solar panel (80 mA max) will slowly charge the internal battery. This method is ideal for maintaining charge or for emergency top-ups when other power sources are unavailable.
