Charging External Devices
To charge external device(s), connect up to two compatible
devices to the χeMini’s USB power output(s) using USB
cable(s) (not included).
Note: Some devices require a proprietary connector to connect
to a power source. Since USB adapters are widely available to
accommodate such connectors, we have not included adapters with
the χeMini to eliminate the potential waste that could result from
including adapters that you may not use or need.
Device Compatibility
Both χeMini outputs have been designed to be compatible
with a wide variety of devices that accept 5V DC power
(USB standard) and require 1.2A or less, with the following
limitations:
This output is compatible with most smart devices, but is only
compatible with certain iPod models when the χeMini is also
connected to a computer or external iPod charger, like the χePico.
Charge Status
Light Assisted Power™
Checking Charging Status
When the χeMini is being charged by sunlight, the green
Light Assisted Power™ LED on the face of the χeMini will
illuminate. When the χeMini is receiving a charge from AC or
USB sources, the charge status LED will illuminate red. When
the χeMini is completely charged, the charge status LED will
illuminate green.
Checking Back-Up Battery Status
To determine the amount of energy
stored in the χeMini’s internal back-up
battery, press the Battery Status button.
The Battery Status button will indicate
the level of power in the χeMini’s
battery.
Replacing the Battery
The χeMini includes an advanced lithium-ion battery
designed for years of service. The χeMini battery can be
replaced using ONLY a Revolve Electronics χeBattery. The use
of any other battery in the χeMini voids the limited warranty.
