To determine the appropriate size of a solar generator, estimate the total watt-hours (Wh) you'll require. Consider common camping devices like phones, tablets, LED lights, and portable fridges. Here's an approximation of typical consumption:

• Smartphone: 5-10 Wh/day
• Tablet: 20-30 Wh/day
• LED Lantern: 10-15 Wh/day
• Portable Fridge: 200-500 Wh/day

Calculate your total daily power need by summing the individual watt-hour requirements, then add a buffer (around 20%) to account for inefficiencies or unexpected usage.

Once you understand your power requirements, choose a solar generator that matches or exceeds this need. Here are some considerations:

• Capacity: Select a generator with at least 20% more capacity than your daily total to avoid depleting the battery.
• Output Ports: Ensure it has the required ports (USB, AC, DC) for your devices.
• Recharging Time: Consider the solar panel's watts and efficiency. A 100W solar panel in good sunlight can generate about 500 Wh per day.
• Portability: For camping, prioritize a lightweight unit.

Tongyao offers several solar generator options designed for camping:

• Tongyao 300: A compact, 280 Wh generator suitable for weekends with minimal device needs.
• Tongyao 500: A medium-sized, 518 Wh generator perfect for multiple-day trips powering multiple devices.
• Tongyao Pro 1000: A 1000 Wh generator designed for longer stays or energy-intensive devices like fridges.

Each model features high-efficiency solar panel compatibility and a variety of output options to accommodate modern electronics.
