Solar Panel Characteristics and Precautions
The power output of the solar panel varies with sunlight intensity and panel temperature. For maximum power generation, install the panel perpendicular to direct sunlight. Do not operate the panel if it is partially folded. Avoid shadows or obstructions on the panel surface, as this significantly reduces power generation. Keep the panel surface clean for optimal efficiency. The panel has no built-in storage function, and the generated current is DC.
