POWERplus Gorilla ETFE 20W Solar Charger

POWERplus Gorilla 20W Portable Solar Charger - USB 5V and DC 14.8V (ETFE)

Do you need a reliable and efficient source of free energy during field trips, camping, in a tent, on a boat, or maybe as protection in the event of a power outage? The POWERplus Gorilla solar charger is your personal, portable sun in a compact form! This high-quality, foldable solar panel with a nominal power of 20W uses three highly efficient solar cells, protected by an ultra-durable and resistant to external conditions ETFE layer. Gorilla offers versatile possibilities for charging devices thanks to stabilized USB 5V outputs (up to 3A) and a uniqueDC 14.8V output (up to 1A), implemented via a car cigarette lighter socket adapter. Its lightweight, foldable design and practical accessories make it the perfect companion for any trip.

Reliable Solar Energy Wherever You Are - Main Features:

• High Charging Power 20W in a Compact Form: Three effective solar panels with a total nominal power of 20W (tested under STC conditions, average real output power on a sunny day is approx. 14W) ensure fast and effective charging of your mobile devices directly from the sun.
• Versatile Charging Options (Dual Output: USB + DC): The charger has a built-in voltage regulator with two independent outputs:
  • USB port (5V / max 3A): Standard USB type A port, ideal for quickly charging smartphones, tablets, power banks, cameras, GPS navigation and many other USB-powered gadgets.
  • DC Port (14.8V / max 1A) with Cigarette Lighter Socket Adapter: Unique 14.8V DC output, available via the included adapter terminated with a standard car cigarette lighter socket (female). This allows you to power or charge devices designed to work with ~12V car installations, such as some models of coolers, pumps, portable voltage converters, etc. (Always check the current and voltage requirements of your device!).
• Exceptional Strength and Resistance Thanks to the ETFE Layer: The innovative, multi-layer ETFE (Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene) coating protects high-efficiency solar cells against scratches, impacts, dust, water (splash and rain resistance) and the degrading effects of UV radiation. This ensures not only long panel life, but also high efficiency and reliability even in difficult terrain and weather conditions.
• Ultra-Practical, Foldable and Portable Design: The charger folds like a small briefcase into a compact size for easy transportation and storage. It is also light (weighs less than 750g). It has an integrated, foldable stand, which allows you to easily set the panel at the optimal angle to the sun, and practical mounting holes in the four corners, allowing you to easily attach it to a backpack, tent, bicycle or boat rail.
• Charging Efficiency Optimization: The built-in stand allows you to easily position the panel at an angle of approximately 90 degrees to the incident sunlight, which significantly increases the amount of energy obtained compared to the panel lying flat.
• LED Visual Power Generation Indicator: A small LED on the controller housing lets you know when the panel is exposed to sufficiently strong sunlight and is actively generating electricity, ready to charge connected devices.

• Solar cell type / Protective layer: High efficiency monocrystalline (or polycrystalline) cells, protected by a durable ETFE layer
• Dimensions (folded panel): approx. 20 cm x 28 cm x 3 cm
• Dimensions (unfolded panel): approx. 59 cm x 28 cm x 2.5 cm
• Weight: approx. 746 g
• Additional features: Foldable design (3 panels), integrated fold-out stand, mounting holes in the corners (4 pcs), LED energy generation indicator

How to use and Important Notes:

• To obtain maximum charging efficiency, fully unfold the solar panel and place it in a place with as much direct sunlight as possible. Using the integrated stand, position the panel at an angle as close to 90 degrees to the incident sunlight as possible.
• Connect the device you want to charge to the appropriate output port (USB 5V or DC 14.8V via cigarette lighter adapter). When the LED lights up, it will confirm that the panel is generating power.
• Important Note Regarding the DC 14.8V Output: This output is used to power devices designed for a voltage of approximately 12-15V and equipped with a car cigarette lighter plug. You should absolutely not connect this output directly to the terminals of a 12V battery (e.g. car, gel) without using an appropriate solar charge controller (MPPT or PWM). Direct connection may lead to overcharging and permanent damage to the battery!
• Protect solar panels from strong impacts, excessive bending and walking on them.
• Regularly wipe the surface of the panels with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and dirt that may reduce performance.
• Remember that solar charging efficiency is strongly dependent on sunlight intensity. On cloudy days, in the shade or when the sun is low above the horizon, the power generated will be much lower or zero.
