Understanding the Solar Suitcase
Batteries, Panels, and Lights
Main Battery Solar Panel
The Solar Suitcase includes a Lithium Ferrous
Phosphate battery (LFP; 12 volt, 12 amp-hour)
that stores electricity for night time use.
The LFP battery lasts for 5 years, and can be
fully charged and discharged hundreds of times
before it needs replacement. It can also be
stored for months without harm to the battery.
The Solar Suitcase is also compatible with
Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) batteries.
Battery Replacement.
After years of usage, if
you notice the battery is full at the beginning of
the evening, but runs out of charge quickly (for
example, the battery cannot provide enough
power for one LED light through the night), it is
time to replace your battery.
Lights
The Solar Suitcase can power two LED lights
throughout the night and an additional two LED
lights in systems using a 65-200 watt solar
panel. The LED lights plug into the light sockets
and be secured with the locking nut. The LED
lights can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
The solar panel turns sunlight into
electricity. The electricity is used to
charge the main battery in the Solar
Suitcase. The solar panel for the Solar
Suitcase is sized so that the battery can
fully charge every day.
