Intended Use

To extend the life and keep 12 Volt batteries healthy they need to be recharged on a regular basis, the 7
Watt Solar Charger will help with recharging 12 Volt batteries. This product is designed to charge
rechargeable 12 Volt batteries. Some common uses of 12 Volt batteries are to provide power to RVs
batteries, water pumps, deer feeders, boats and trucks. When the panel is exposed to sunlight and
connected to the battery in parallel it will start charging at a current up to 7 Watt or 583 mAmps per
hour.

The above electrical characteristics are based on the results of outgoing test. Do not expose solar
module to sunlight concentrated with mirrors, lenses or similar means.

Under normal conditions, photovoltaic modules may experience conditions that produce more current
and/or voltage than reported at Standard Test Conditions. Modules should be multiplied by a factor of

1.25 when determining component voltage ratings, conductor capacities, fuse sizes and size of controls
connected to the module output. Refer to Sec. 6908 of the National Electric Code for an additional
multiplying factor of 125 percent (80 percent of rating), which may be applicable.
