How do I charge my LuminAID light?Updated 2 months ago
To recharge your light, place the light in direct, outdoor sun with the solar panel facing the sun.
Windows block light and significantly slow down charging. Although the charging indicator may turn on, the light will not be receiving enough power to charge.
For optimum charging, place the light outside in an area away from shadows or shade. Ensure that the solar panel on your light is not obstructed (packaging, trees, shadows, etc.). Keep in mind that nearby buildings and trees might shade your light for part of the day.
Charge times vary depending on time of year, location, and product. For charging in sub-optimal conditions, such as on cloudy days or at higher latitudes, please allow for an additional 1-2 days of charging time.
If your product has a micro USB input port, you can also recharge your lantern quickly by using the 5V micro USB input.
Note: We do not recommend solar charging indoors or in a car, as windows will block the portions of light needed for solar charging. Do not leave your LuminAID on a car dashboard. A hot car can exceed the safe temperature range for this product.
