Technical FAQs 4

What is a 5V solar panel?

WSL Solar’s 5V solar panel is built with the latest most efficient crystalline silicon solar cells or super high efficiency Sunpower solar cells. These 5v solar panel s are great for charging your 3.2V DC batteries and ideal for use in off grid applications such as GPS tracking, educational kits, small electronic devices, LED lighting etc.

What is a 6V solar panel charger?

A 6V solar panel charger is a circuit designed to optimally charge a 12V lead-acid battery using a 6V solar panel. It provides approximately the same current as if the solar panel were directly connected to the battery.

How much power does a solar panel use?

(Reminder, the system does not have any controllers.) This system is for solar panels that are lower than 30W and only 12V only. (9V solar panels would still work). Power used = 15 W Charging time = depends on your solar panel's power and the battery’s capacity. USB Output 1 (Buck converter) = 5V USB Output 2 (Boost converter)= 5V
