LightSaver Max Technology
The LightSaver Max is made with amorphous silicon solar material which is incredibly thin, flexible, lightweight and
durable. Our thin film solar technology is also extremely sensitive to light. This means it works better in cloudy or shaded
environments than traditional solar panels, turning on earlier and staying on later each day.
Operation
The LightSaver Max collects energy from the sun when available, storing it in the internal battery. That energy is then
available to charge a USB or 12V device anytime, eliminating the need to leave your device out in the sun. The LightSaver
Max can also be charged using USB or 12V inputs if the solar panel is fully rolled up. A second LightSaver Max or other
PowerFilm Solar panel can be connected to the 12V input to increase solar charging speed.
Single button press - Turns the outputs on allowing the LightSaver Max to charge devices. Outputs will stay enabled
until the system is shut off, or about 90 minutes have passed with no load on the outputs. If the LightSaver Max is fully
discharged, it will disable outputs. This protects against draining a device’s battery by turning it on and off, which is
common in many other solar chargers.
Double button press - Changes the state of the flashlight. With the flashlight turned off, the first double press will turn
the flashlight on to the high setting, the second double press will change the flashlight to the low setting, and the third
double press will shut it off.
Press and hold - Turns off the unit. After a press and hold all LEDs on the outputs will be shut off indicating the unit has
been turned off.

Caring For Your LightSaver Max
Avoid Physical Damage
The LightSaver Max’s solar material is thin, light and durable, but creasing or puncturing the solar panel will reduce
efficiency. Reasonable care in handling will assure a long life.
Charging Temperatures
Avoid leaving the LightSaver Max on the dashboard of a hot car or in other similarly hot environments as the heat may
damage the battery.
The LightSaver Max charges most effectively between 35 and 115 degrees Fahrenheit.
When charging the LightSaver Max from solar, roll the tube under the solar panel to prevent potential overheating of the
batteries.
Avoid Excessive Water
A little water on the LightSaver Max is not a problem, but allowing significant water inside the unit may corrode
components. Saltwater is particularly corrosive and should be kept out of the device.
