Charging From the Grid
(AC Wall Outlet)
You can charge your Flex system from
normal AC power sources (refer to the
specifications on the housing of the
charger for exact details). The Standard
Wall Charger provides up to 88 watts
of charge power, while the Quick Wall
Charger can source as much as 225
watts to charge your Flex system.
You can plug the Standard Wall
Charger into the 5.5mm x 2.5mm DC
input port on the left panel of your Flex
Battery. If you have more than one Flex
Solar Charging With the MPPT
Supercharger
When you add the MPPT Supercharger
to your Flex system, we recommend you
connect it at the bottom of the stack.
Although it will work anywhere in the
stack, this configuration will improve
the efficiency of your power console
outputs. Make sure you have all
modules securely connected with each
latch mechanism fully engaged.
To connect solar panels to the MPPT
Supercharger, follow the same
process above, connecting the EC8 to
the supercharger first, and the MC4
connectors last. When disconnecting,
always unplug the EC8 last.
You can add one Flex MPPT
Supercharger for every Flex Battery
you have in your Flex Modular System.
If you intend to add more than five
(5) MPPT Superchargers to your Flex
Modular System, please contact us.
CHARGING YOUR FLEX MODULAR SYSTEM
Important Note:
The MPPT Supercharger gives you two additional MPPT charge controllers and EC8 inputs, allowing
you to connect additional solar panel arrays to double or triple your charge rate. If you do not have
more than 400W of solar panels, you may not gain any benefit from using the MPPT Supercharger.
Using the MPPT Supercharger requires additional individual strings of solar panels connected directly
to it, and will not increase the input capabilities of the power console input.
You can add one Flex MPPT Supercharger for every Flex Battery you have in your Flex Modular
System. If you intend to add more than five (5) MPPT Superchargers to your Flex Modular
