13W Portable Solar Briefcase

Instructions

Order code: N00CX

The solar briefcase is a powerful 13W solar charger for 12V batteries. It is ideal for camping, 
caravanning and marine applications and can be used for charging GPS systems, laptop computers, 
mobile phones and for powering 3V, 6V and 12V appliances. It turns natural sunlight into electricity, 
which is used to power/charge devices. It has a handy support built-in to both sides of the unit, which 
is designed to enable you to position the panels in prime sunlight to maximize charging output. It 
also has a convenient detachable connection system and is supplied with all necessary cables and 
connectors.
Please note: This kit is not waterproof. The panel is water resistant so is suitable for use in light rain, 
but the charge controller unit should always be kept away from moisture as it is not water resistant.
