FAQ:

Q: How much sunlight is needed to power the shade?
A: Typically, it requires around 4 to 6 hours of optimal sunlight exposure to achieve a full charge, ensuring that your shades perform consistently throughout the day. If you are in an area with weaker sunlight, it may take longer.

Q: What should be done if there is rainy weather?
A: If you're concerned about the shades' performance while charging with the solar panel, rest assured that even with a week of consecutive rainy weather and no solar energy input, the energy stored from the previous charge will typically be sufficient to keep the shades running.

Q: How can I confirm that the solar panel is providing a stable power input to the shade？
A: The motor LED light flashes green when it recharges the motor. The motor LED light turns solid green when the battery is fully charged.

Q: How can I make the solar panel more aesthetically pleasing and discreet?
A: To make the solar panel more aesthetically pleasing and discreet, it's recommended to select the motor on the right side, which allows the solar panel's cable to be hidden behind the valance.

Q: Does the solar panel need direct sunlight?
A: The solar panel will charge as long as it is exposed to sunlight, though the efficiency of charging depends on the angle at which the sunlight strikes the panel. Solar panels must not be installed under eaves or other obstructions. They are incompatible with triple-pane or tinted windows and should not be placed on north-facing windows.

Q: Can I use one solar panel to charge two shades?
A: No. Solar panels are designed to work on a one-to-one basis with each shade.

Q: Can I use one solar panel and rotate it to charge multiple shades?
A: No. Once the solar panel is fixed in place and then removed, the adhesive on the back (3M tape) will lose its stickiness and cannot be reused.
