These steps of the operation manual assume that the circuit is working appropriately and has minimal bugs that don't affect the charging of the lipo battery.
- Place your 10-12V solar panel in direct sunlight
- Connect your solar panel to the charging circuit
- Connect your 2s 7.4V lipo battery to the charging circuit (the STAT1 LED should light up to indicate charge is in progress)
- Leave charging until the battery charge is complete (8.4V) indicated when the STAT2 LED lights up and the STAT1 LED turns off.
- If charging criteria are not met - such as if the voltage supplied by the solar panel is less than that of the battery, the the charger should enter its SLEEP mode - indicated when both STAT1 and STAT2 LEDs are turned off.
If your panel is not behaving properly, try checking the Issues tab and see if I have found a solution to that problem already.
