Operating Instructions
The Haofy Portable Solar Panel is designed for simple operation. No external power source or complex setup is required beyond placing it in sunlight and connecting your device.
- Initiating Charge: Once the panel is exposed to sufficient sunlight, it will automatically begin generating power. A red indicator light will illuminate when the product is actively working in a well-lit environment.
- Optimal Sunlight: For the fastest and most efficient charging, ensure the solar panel receives ample, direct sunlight. Performance may be reduced on cloudy days or in shaded areas.
- Dual Device Charging: The panel is equipped with two Type C ports, allowing you to charge two compatible devices simultaneously. Each port provides 5V2A output.
- No Storage Function: Please note that this solar panel does not have an internal battery for power storage. It generates electricity directly from sunlight, so devices must be connected while the panel is exposed to the sun.
