Transcend Portable Solar Charger

This very portable Solar Panel Charger is for use with the Transcend Overnight Battery and Transcend Multi-Night Battery. Easy to use, there are no extra cords or cables needed, the Transcend Battery plugs directly into the panel for charging. The batteries are used exclusively with the:

• Transcend Travel CPAP Machine
• Transcend EZEX Travel CPAP Machine
• Transcend Auto Travel CPAP Machine with EZEX

Made of paper thin, military grade "Power Film", the solar panel is stored folded and ready for use. Just open, lay out flat and connect the battery to the solar panel charger. In direct sun and ideal conditions, the OverNight Battery is fully charged in 6 hours and the MulitNight Battery is fully charged in 12 hours. A green LED indicates the battery is fully charged taking the guesswork out of the process. The solar panel is water resistant and the only maintenance needed is to wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

The folded panel weighs just 1 lb and measures 10.5 x 3.5 x 2 inches. When open and flat, the panel measures 30 x 21 inches. The panel closes with Velcro for storage.

PowerFilm has been making solar panels since 1988, and this one was developed specifically for charging the Transcend Battery. Charge the battery while camping, hiking, or during an extended power outage.

The Foldable Solar Panel will charge both the Transcend Overnight Battery and the Transcend Multi-Night Battery.

Please note: The Foldable Solar Panel is for use only with the Transcend Batteries and is not compatible for charging other devices.

Important Compatibility Note

The Foldable Solar Panel Charger for Transcend CPAP Machine is for use only with the Transcend Batteries. It is not intended to be used to charge any other devices. Charging of a device other than the Transcend Batteries is consider off-label use and not covered by product warranties.

PLEASE NOTE:

• Charge Time: The charge times for the OverNight and MultiNight batteries are based on being direct sunlight with no cloud cover. Charge time will be longer if there are overcast conditions present. The battery will charge up to 5 times faster on a fully sunny day than on a cloudy day.
• Charge Location: The solar panel must be charged outside, in direct sunlight. It cannot be charged by laying it in a window that is getting sunlight as the sunlight is filtered.
• Charge Indicator Lights: Only the solar panel LED will light up. The battery LED will NOT light up. The LED charge light must be GREEN to indicate it is fully charged. If the LED light is showing RED, ORANGE or YELLOW, more charge time is required to reach a full charge and provide the maximum amount of run time.
• Extreme Temperature: The battery and charge port should not exceed 113 degrees. The charge port has a cut off circuit built in to shut off charging to allow the unit to cool down. After it is cooled the unit will begin to charge again. Charge time will be extended in this circumstance. Extreme heat will affect performance of the battery.
• Charging Port Maintenance: The charging port is the small black box on the panel where the battery connects to the solar panel. A port that is dirty or corroded will not charge as intended. Clean the port regularly to ensure it is clean. Also if the solar panel and battery get wet, dry the port well before storing.
• Product Revision Information: The solar charger went through a revision which is reflected in the part number on the product label. 103333 Rev. A = Charge light is dim which may require shading it from sunlight to see that it is lit. 103333 Rev. B = Charge light is brighter but may still need to be shaded from sunlight to see it.
