FAQs
What is the warranty period for this kit?
Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty information as it can vary.
Can this panel be used to charge a car battery?

What is the weight of the folded panel?
The solar panel itself weighs approximately 16.53 pounds.
Can I connect multiple DOKIO 300W panels together?
Connecting multiple panels requires careful consideration of voltage and current, and a larger charge controller. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines or an expert for series/parallel connections.
Does this kit include a battery?
No, this kit includes the solar panel and a charge controller with cables. A separate battery or power station is required to store the generated power.
Troubleshooting
Panel not generating power
Ensure the panel is in direct sunlight and properly angled. Check all cable connections for security. Verify the charge controller is functioning correctly and not displaying error codes.
