8. How do I connect and charge a device
not supported by the adaptor tips
included in this pack?
•
Assuming Freeloader Pico is capable of
charging the device:
1) order the required tip at
www@solartechnology.co.uk or
2) if the device was originally supplied
with a USB charge cable (most devices
are) connect this to your device and to
Freeloader Pico via the Power Out socket
(B, fig 1).
9. I have a device that can be charged
via my computer's USB port – can
Freeloader Pico charge it?
•
Yes the Freeloader Pico should be able to
charge it.
10. I cannot see the LEDs on the unit when
it's in bright sunlight – is it still charging?
•
Yes it is. The LEDs are of lower power
consumption – you can see that they are
on if you cup your hand over them.
11. Can I charge a laptop computer or
notebook?
•
No, Freeloader Pico is not powerful
enough to charge such devices. If a
device has a voltage demand under 5V
then Freeloader Pico should be able to
charge it.
