jayr Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Is it OK to attach two (2) of your 5W PV panels in parallel to a CDMA iPack for extra charging power here in New England? If not, why not? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Carlson Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Hi Jay, If you are in an area that gets limited exposure to the sun, it's a good idea to do just what you suggest above. Installing addional PV panels in parallel is a good way to ensure the battery is getting enough charge to keep calling. The maximum wattage of any of the individual panels you use should not exceed 10W. Any panel of greater wattage rating than this has an open circuit voltage that is too high for the iPack's charging circuit, and may damage the iPack. You may use more than one 10W panel. All the best, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
