To harvest solar energy most eciently, try to ensure that the sun's rays hit the panel at a 90°angle and that the panel is not shaded. For improved charging results, the Protective Case can also beused as a kickstand to propup the solar panel at a 25°–80°angle. Adjust The Angle By Shooting This cable can only be used for connection between solar panels and energy storage. It is prohibited to be used for interconnection between solar panels or other connection purposes. Solar Panel Adapter Cable1 . Connect the positive poles of the two solar panels with the parallel cable and repeat the step for the negative poles.

2. Connect the parallel cable connectors (output side) with the

connectors of the Solar Charging Cable respectively.

3. Connect the XT60 connector on the Solar Charging Cable to

the XT60 port on the portable power station to recharge the unit. (refer to the figure below) Wire solar panels in parallel Speed Up Solar Charging Solar Panel A Solar Panel B Solar parallel connection cable

• Users have to buy the solar panels and other parallel connection accessories seperately.

The kickstand feature should only be used before 10:00am or after 2:00pm. To use the product during the midday sun, simply place the solar panel flat on the ground.

1. As the eciency of solar panels depends upon light intensity and the tilt angle used, the charging power

of the panel may be aected by a number of factors such as weather conditions, seasonal changes and location. The installation and connection of this product should be carried out strictly in accordance with the instructions found in the User Manual.

2. Only the main body of this product is waterproof. The junction box and connection points should not be

3. This product must not come into contact with highly corrosive substances, or be immersed in corrosive

4. To avoid damaging the product, do not use sharp objects on the surface of the panel, and do not knock or

5. Do not apply pressure to the panel or allow the panel to be dropped on any of its corners, sides or faces.

Such actions may result in damage to the solar panel.

6. The panel must not be knocked, exposed to heavy pressure, or bent during transport, rotation or installa-

tion. We recommend that the panel is kept in a vertical position when being moved or stored.

7. When storing the panel, always ensure that the positive and negative terminals of the junction box are not

exposed to sunlight.

8. To avoid the risk of injury, this product and its junction box must only be opened or disassembled by

qualified personnel. 9. Unwanted solar panels must be disposed of in accordance with the local legal requirements.4. Panel Shading. The surface of the solar panel should not be shaded during use. Shading caused by shadows, foreign objects and glass can all greatly reduce power output. What should I know about the operating temperature, storage and use of the 110W Solar Panel? The operating temperature of the Solar Panel is -20°C–85°C (-4°F–185°F). The panel should be folded into its original shape and stored in its Protective Case (Kickstand), which provides sucient protection for the product. To extend the service life of the panel, ensure that the product is not exposed to external forces/impacts when not in use. The solar panel must not be dropped, pierced, bent, or sat on. These actions may break the cell and render the panel unusable. Any such damage will not be covered by the free warranty. Performance Issues Caused by Malfunctioning Panels: If the panel still isn’t generating power or its output remains far below expected nominal power figures after addressing the issues above, there may be an issue with the panel itself. Please contact Customer Support for assistance. FAQs Does the 110W Solar Panel generate a full 110W of power? In most cases, it is normal for a solar panel not to deliver its full nominal power. Some of the reasons why this happens, as well as some suggestions for getting closer to the nominal power figure, are given below.

1. Light Intensity. The amount of light shining on the panel will result in fluctuations to the power output.

You are more likely to achieve nominal power output figures closer to those obtained under test conditions when using the product on a clear day during the midday sun, than when using the product in the morning or later in the afternoon. Weather conditions will also aect the amount of sunlight that shines on the panel. For example, you are much less likely to achieve the figures for nominal power in hazy, cloudy or rainy conditions.

2. Surface Temperature. The temperature of the solar panel surface will also aect the amount of power

generated. The lower the surface temperature of the panel, the more power will be produced. For example, solar panels generate more power when used during the winter than during the summer, and this is completely normal. Solar panels generally reach temperatures close to 60°C (140°F) during summer. This reduces nominal power by 13%, despite the higher levels of light shining on the panel.

3. Sunlight Angle. In optimal light conditions, the sun’s rays should remain perpendicular to the surface

of the panel for best performance. The dierence of ± 10 degrees of 90 degrees of sunlight hitting the panels has little eect on the power. How much power can the 110W Solar Panel generate under normal conditions? This depends first and foremost on weather conditions. Generally speaking, on a clear day with no clouds in the sky, sunlight hitting the panel at a 90° angle usually generates 80W–90W of power in the 110W panel. (Current light conditions are normally 800W–900W/m

) with a panel temperature of 50°C (122°F) under test conditions. Nominal power ratings are based on 1000W/m

) in AM1.5 conditions with a panel temperature of 25°C (77°F) under test conditions. Power output figures close nominal values were normally observed in the midday sun during the winter.)Can I use non-EcoFlow branded power stations with the 110W Solar Panel? Yes, but only certain types. The power station used must be compatible with MC4 standards in order to work properly. In addition, other brands of power station may not oer the same levels of compatibility as EcoFlow-branded power stations, may have lower nominal power ratings, and may not oer the same levels of performance. Can I connect 110W Solar Panels in parallel? Yes, but this is not recommended. Parallel connections will double the total current of the input power. 110W solar panels can be connected in parallel, but the current may exceed the input current limitation of the power station. Only two 110W panels should be used in parallel connection. If you want to connect more than two 110W panels with parallel connection, ensure the maximum solar input current of your power station is higher than 20A.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. FCC STATEMENT Can I connect 110W Solar Panels with another size of solar panels in series? Yes, but this is not recommended. Even if the voltage of the two panels are identical, the current ratings are not. This means that when the panels are connected in series, the current will be limited to that of the lower solar panel which cause the power of 110W solar panel can’t be released entirely, resulting in a 1+1<2 scenario. Please purchase panels of the same size if you intend to connect multiple panels in series.Technical Specifications 110W Solar Panel General Rated Power: 110 W(+/-5 W)* Open Circuit Voltage: 21.8 V Running Voltage: 18.4 V Short Circuit Current: 6.5 A Running Current: 6.0 A Efficiency: 22.8 % Cell Type: Monocrystalline silicon Solar Panel: Approximately 8.8 lbs (4 KG) Unfolded Dimensions: 16.5*70.3*1.0 in(42.0*178.5*2.5 cm) Folded Dimensions: 16.5*18.9*1.0 in(42.0*48*2.5 cm) Warranty: 12 months *Standard Test Conditions:1000 W/m
