The Nomad 20 features auto restart technology that knows the difference between a device that has reached a fully charged state and one that disconnects due to environmental causes. When the latter is detected, the Nomad 20 will automatically resume charging to start charging the device again. No extra work on your part is needed. When operating in low light conditions, we recommend pairing your solar panel with a portable power bank for the best charging experience possible. A Goal Zero Flip power bank (sold separately) will fit securely into the Nomad 20’s integrated Flip charging dock and allow you to collect and store a continuous stream of power to charge your device.6 7 Q: Is the Nomad 20 waterproof? A: The best answer: it’s weatherproof. We’ve gone to great lengths to ruggedize the Nomad 20; including beefing up the manufacturing process with advanced lamination techniques so it’ll slough off rain and snow. Q: Does the Nomad 20 have a built-in battery? A: No. In order to make the Nomad 20 as lightweight as possible, we chose to sell batteries as an optional accessory. You can either plug your phone or device into the Nomad 20 to charge up directly from the sun, or pair the panel with one of our power banks to collect and store power for later. The Nomad 20 works seamlessly with our line of ultra-portable Flip Power Banks, versatile Sherpa Power Banks, or small Yeti Power Stations. Q: Is this chainable with other Nomad panels? A: Yes, but only on some Goal Zero Nomad Solar Panels. You can plug the Charge Cable into the chaining ports on Nomad 20 Solar Panels and larger.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

CHAINING Chaining panels is a great way to collect more power from the sun and recharge devices quicker. You can chain up to 150W of solar panels together. We recommend no more than four in a chain (see the NOTE below).

1. Plug the 8mm Charge Cable into another Nomad Solar

2. Using the 8mm Charge Cable of the final panel, plug

into a Sherpa Power Bank or Goal Zero Yeti Portable Power Station. You could also plug into the USB port on the last panel to charge USB powered devices. NOTE After four solar panels are chained together, you might notice something called line loss, which has to do with the loss of voltages over long distances. The farther the power has to travel through cables, from panel to panel, the more power you will lose.8 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Solar Panel: Rated Power 20W Open Circuit Voltage Voc 18-22V Cell Type Monocrystalline Ports: 8mm Port 14-22V, up to 1.3A (20W max) USB Port 5V, up to 2.1A (10.5W max) General: Weight 2.28 lbs (1.03 kg) Dimensions (unfolded)
