Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the solar panel hold a charge?
A: No, the panel produces power only

when it is exposed to sunlight. To

generate the most power, angle the
panel towards the sun. This improves
your ability to collect power from the
sun. Note: Clouds and windows affect
collection efficiency. If you would like
to store solar power, combine the
Nomad 13 with the Sherpa 50
Portable Recharger.

Q: What can I charge directly from the

solar panel?

A: USB and 12V devices like
cellphones, GPS and iPods. You can
plug in a 12V device and a USB
device at the same time, however,
you will slow down the charge time
for both devices.

Q: Is the solar panel waterproof?

A: It is weather-resistant and will not be

harmed if exposed to rain or snow.

OKAY

BAD

Q: Why am I having trouble charging my

cellphone?

A: Some phones require very specific
and constant power. Try changing the
angle of your panel and re-plugging in
your phone. Most charging issues are
overcome by incorporating a Goal
Zero portable recharger like
a Sherpa.

Q: Can I chain multiple solar

panels together?

A: Yes. Chaining additional solar panels
is a great way to charge your device
from the sun in less time. You can
chain up to four solar panels at once.
