CHARGE BEFORE USE

Use the built-in cable to charge up Venture 30 from a live USB source. A new Venture 30 comes in a protective mode to prevent self-discharge, potentially caused by long periods of inactivity, like shipping.

The Venture 30 will not charge your gear until it is plugged into a live USB source.

1. Unplug the USB end of the cable and plug it into a live USB port.
2. Know it's charging when blue indicator lights on the top illuminate and pulse. Each blue indicator light represents 20% battery capacity. Blue indicator lights will flash according to how quickly Venture 30 is charging. A slow flash indicates a slow charge, while quicker flashing indicates faster charging.
3. Venture 30 is full and ready to go when all lights are pulsing together.

Venture 30 allows for pass-through power so you can charge your gear and Venture 30 at the same time. When Venture 30's battery is dead, the first blue indicator light will flash when the Battery button is pushed.

SOLAR READYTM

Venture 30 is engineered to charge quickly from Goal Zero Nomad Solar Panels.

1. Unplug the USB end of the built-in cable and plug it into the USB port on the back of the Nomad panel.
2. Know it's charging when blue indicator lights illuminate and pulse. Each blue indicator light represents 20% battery capacity.
3. Venture 30 is full and ready to go when all lights are pulsing together.

Blue indicator lights will flash according to how quickly Venture 30 is charging. A slow flash indicates a slow charge, while quicker flashing indicates faster charging.

When charging from solar, angle your panel toward the sun to see how it affects charging.

Headlamp 5-10x

POV Camera 5x

Phone 2-3x

Tablet 1x

1. Using your charging cable, plug into Venture 30's USB ports - they'll both work at the same time at 2.4A so you can share power with a buddy.
2. If your device charges from micro USB, use the built-in cable.
3. The blue indicator lights will flash according to how quickly your gear is charging. A slow flash indicates a slow charge, while quicker flashing indicates faster charging. If you're experiencing slow charge times, run the smart charge sequence (see next section) and ensure Venture 30 is fully charged.

SMART CHARGE SEQUENCE

Venture 30's advanced smart charging feature allows you to optimize and adapt its USB outputs to charge your gear as fast as possible. This sequence runs independently for both USB ports - meaning you can set different charging profiles for each port. Fastest profiles will be applied and saved until reset or the sequence is run again.

1. With your gear plugged into Venture 30's USB port, press and hold the Battery button for approximately 5 seconds to activate the smart charge sequence.
2. The blue indicator lights will begin to flash as different profiles are automatically tested with your gear.
3. When the lights finish flashing, the fastest profile has been selected.

HOW IT WORKS: You might have noticed if you plug your device into a charger claiming a high output your device still charges slowly. How quickly your device charges comes down to communication between the charger and what you plug in. Every dovio has its own preference when it comes to charging, the challenge is identifying the language used by the manufacturer to decode that preference. Venture 30's smart charging feature acts as a translator, identifying your device's language, decoding and applying the fastest charging profile possible, without overcharging or overheating. This feature makes Venture 30 one of the most compatible chargers on the market.
We recommend running the smart charge sequence anytime you experience slow charge times or when plugging in now goar.

Whichever mode you are in when you release the Flashlight button will become the default mode. Avoid looking into the light when you turn it on - it's pretty dang bright.

RUGGEDDESIGN

Venture 30 comes equipped with an IPX6 rating. Spray it down, take it to the beach, leave it in the rain - and never worry about rubber plugs. It's engineered to get out, stay out and handle whatever Mother Nature can throw your way - even a quick drop in a puddle.
