This portable kit is powered by a single Voltaic Systems Arc20W Solar Folder. The output voltage from the Arc20W is reduced from around 17V to 5V by the Voltaic Systems USB 5V Regulator for Solar Panel. Finally, by connecting the Fenix CL26R LED USB Rechargeable Lantern to the 5V regulator output you will be able to rapidly charge even when it is overcast.
This kit is future proof expandable in terms of linking multiple folders together for more current, the addition of batteries for storing excess energy for recharging your devices later or the simple addition of additional 5V regulators for simultaneously charging additional devices when there is sufficient direct sunlight.
Even without adding additional components the kit is very flexible in terms of not only being able to charge the included Fenix USB rechargeable 18650 lantern but also in terms of being able to charge 18650 batteries and other USB devices such as your mobile phone(s), tablet(s), GoPro(s), and much more.
Expanding your solar capacity.
The range of Voltaic Systems solar panels are modular and may be quickly connected together in parallel using either Y connectors or circuit boxes.
