7. What are performance specifications of the solar panels?
System performance of the solar panels is dependent on several variables, including: orientation to direct sunlight, season, cloud cover, temperature, and shadowing. As a result, .typical. performance parameters are user and condition dependent. Specifications for ideal conditions are shown below. 
Solar Charger Specifications
	Performance Parameter  Value 
	Rated Peak Power 3.0 Watts 
	System Voltage Rating 7.5 Volts 
	Open Circuit Voltage 12 Volts 
	Nominal Operating Current 0.35 Amps 

8. What are the performance specifications for the battery?
	System performance of the battery is shown below:
	Auxiliary Battery Output 
	Performance Parameter  Value 
	USB Output Voltage 5.0 Volts +/- 10% 
	USB Output Current 0.5 Amps Max* 
	*Output current typically regulated by the hand held device charge control circuitry.

18. How large is the battery?
The battery is about the size of a deck of cards or pack of cigarettes. It weighs approximately 5 oz. It measures 3.5. (L) X 1. (H) X 2.25. (W). Click the image to the right to view the battery.

19. How large is the solar pack?
 The solar pack is an unusual size, but at its largest area it measures approximately 16" X 14.. It weighs less than 3 oz. You can roll the solar pack when not attached to a maximum rolling diameter of 3 inches, but be very careful not to bend the panels. As mentioned above, we want to avoid the panel from being rolled into a tight circle (cylinder). Rolling or creasing could damage the cells of the electrical circuit connecting the cells.
