5. Will charging Freeloader Pico from its
solar cell behind glass cause me any
problems?
• Not really a problem but it will
increase the time needed to charge,
sometimes up to three times longer
than if outside.
6. I have Freeloader Pico positioned on
a shady windowsill. Will Freeloader
Pico still charge?
• Yes Freeloader Pico will still be charged
by its solar cell but it will take a lot
longer compared to being outside in
full sun – up to 4-5 days longer in fact.
7. Can I leave Freeloader Pico out
in the rain?
• No, we do not recommend getting
Freeloader Pico wet. However, should
this happen accidentally, please dry in
an airy position away from children and
foodstuffs. The solar cell should be fine;
however, the battery and circuit board
may be damaged. A trial will soon tell,
however, and we would recommend
this trial be done outside by the solar
cells only and
NOT
connected to a PC.
Should the test prove that Freeloader
Pico has been damaged, Solar
Technology International Ltd may be
able to repair the unit. Please contact
for
more information.
