If using a AAA (900mah AAA's) adaptor to AA. How long will it take to charge resting on the ground (or table) on a semi sunny day?

The solar panel produces approx 500mA in full sun. So, a pair of 900mAh AAAs would be 1800mAh and require approx 4 hours of full sun light. If it is "semi sunny" (say 50% of full sun intensity), it would require twice as much time...I hope this helps.

If you started with a fully charged battery and ran on hi setting how soon, if ever, would the power degrade to the point where brightness was affected? I have never tried it so I don't know for certain. The spec sheet says it will put out 5000 lumens (brightest setting) for one hour 15 minutes.The charger output is 2 A.The battery rated output is 5200 mAH.The charging time Is about four hours. So you could calculate but. if it didn't work you could use back up battery pack(s). You have me curious now about what kind of an application would allow you to have it plugged in to AC four hours.

i have notice there is no lost in charging time, even if the sun goes behind a cloud. because i leave the panels on top of my backpack when i am hiking...i don't check the status of the charge until i get to resting point, about 3-4 hours later. by the end of the day the charging unit is fully charged.

Don't know for sure as I bring mine in. Shouldn't hurt it other than the charging time will be less due to shorter daylight and charging itself may be affected by the cold. You will see less on time.

I would think it would depend on the charger. mine has two modes. With the Soft mod it takes about 3 or 4 hours. In the conditioning mode it's like 12 to 15 hours for the AA. For the D's it's more like 24 to 26...

should work fine off a battery and using this to keep it charged.. shouldn't used it directly because of voltage fluctuations with clouds and weather.. will put out up to 6 amps in good sunlight...

it's different time and based at how long u charge them at station. at full charge it,s near 10-20 min. but manufacturer not installed uvf leds for fast charge, and u need near 30min to do it. wanna fast full glow, use UVF lamp

I haven't tried it in full sunlight. I did try leaving it inside my car next to the windshield. Although this is not ideal, after 2 or 3 days, it did not charge much my 10,000 mah battery. It may be better for smaller battery capacities like your iPhone but not super efficient for large battery packs.

Don't remember checking label, but it i think its standard for AA and AAA to be 1.5v? I checked it with multimeter after charging it shows about ~1.5v

If you can find a USB AAA charger you like. I believe USB is 4.5V. 1.5V to 1.25V is AAA. My guess is two AAA batteries, at a time would be best since this is a low power charger.

Umm, I don't know. Mine has a place in the container for an AAA battery and it recharges by draining that battery. It takes over night at first but after that it's less. On the side of the container is a plugin port for the A/C charger but I've never tried it so I don't know. It gives the voltage (3) and amperage (100ma) so any charger with that exact output will work even used from goodwill. Beware if the ma or milliamps is not shown as if it's higher it could burn up your unit. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Per the instructions chart, the left and right bays are independent from each other. You can charge as little as two AAA batteries of 850 mAh in less than an hour to eight AA batteries of 2700 mAh in six hours. If you use the discharge feature, then you're looking at about four hours to discharge one to eight AAA batteries and up to 14 hours to discharge one to eight AA batteries, then add charging time.

With good direct sunlight, you should have no problems. Shady days and the charging goes slower.

I can not say for sure. It obviously depends on the amount of sunshine available. Also, do you run the air pump continuously day and night? The charger is designed to recharge between battery uses.

With good sun about 8 hrs for a full charge. I pre-charge mine w/my phone charger before I head out though.

That depends somewhat on the charger. I have a very compact Energizer charger (#CHDC8) that will charge 4 AA's in about two hours. Some quick chargers are faster, but I've been told fast charging is not good for the batteries.

Yup. But the higher Wattage you get the better, and more powerful devices it'll charge faster. Also, if you get a power bank, and change it with the sun, that works even better, becasue then you don't always need to be in the sun. Hope this helps!
