How to maximize the charging efficiency of a solar - powered watch?

I. Aspect of Light Illumination Angle

  Position the Watch Correctly

According to the comparison of sunlight intensity mentioned before, the sunlight intensity is higher when a solar-powered watch like the MACH 2 is placed at an inclined angle. Therefore, try to make the solar receiving surface of the watch perpendicular to the sun's rays as much as possible. For example, when outdoors, you can adjust the angle of the watch appropriately according to the position of the sun, especially when the sun's altitude angle is relatively high, such as around noon.

If charging in a fixed position, for example, placed on a table beside the window, you can use some simple brackets or tilting devices to adjust the angle of the watch to ensure that the solar panel can receive sunlight to the greatest extent.

  Track the Sun's Position

Understand the movement track of the sun throughout the day. In the Northern Hemisphere, the sun rises in the east, passes through the southern sky, and sets in the west. It's the opposite in the Southern Hemisphere. According to this rule, adjust the orientation of the watch in a timely manner so that it faces the sun directly for as long as possible.

II. Aspect of Light Illumination Environment

  Choose a Suitable Location

Avoid charging in shaded areas. For example, don't place the watch under the shade of trees or in the shadows of buildings. Even if part of the sunlight can reach the watch, the shaded part will greatly reduce the overall charging efficiency.

Try to choose sunny and open spaces, such as open balconies, outdoor tables, etc. If charging indoors, choose a position close to the window without curtain obstruction, and preferably the window faces south (in the Northern Hemisphere) or north (in the Southern Hemisphere) to obtain the most sunlight.

  Remove Obstructions on the Surface

Keep the surface of the solar-powered watch clean, free from dust, stains or other debris. These substances will block sunlight and reduce solar energy absorption. Regularly wipe the solar panel of the watch with a clean and soft cloth.

Ensure that the solar panel of the watch is not blocked by the watch band or other accessories. The design of some watch bands may block part of the solar panel at certain angles. You can adjust the position of the watch band appropriately when charging.
