Recharging
From the wall
The maker states these wall charging times:
- 0 to 100% in about 1 h 42 min (Emergency Super Charge)
From solar
It takes up to 400 W of solar. Worked at 4 peak sun hours, counting 75% of the panel rating to allow for heat, angle and controller losses:
- 200 W of panels × 4 h of sun × 0.75 = 600 Wh a day. From empty to full: 2,042 ÷ (200 × 0.75) = 13.6 hours of sun.
- 400 W of panels × 4 h of sun × 0.75 = 1,200 Wh a day. From empty to full: 2,042 ÷ (400 × 0.75) = 6.8 hours of sun.
