The instructions say the outer Red LED’s should go green when the Freeloader hub is fully charged from the solar cells but this has never happened?
• The outer LED’s will never go green! There is a mistake in the manual that has now been rectified please find the latest manual here (link to the PDF). The reason the lights will not turn green is that a voltage regulator has been built into the solar charging circuit. This means that when the hub gets to 98.5% full charge, power is cut from the solar cells, so protecting the hub from overcharging and subsequent damage.
