Hi

i have searched on here and the internet for answers to my problem but I still don’t understand how you add a solar panel to a conventional energiser.

Some answers seemed to indicate that you put two sets of clips onto the two battery terminals bit I don’t see how both would fit?

Photos of someone’s set up would be great. Or any clear instructions.

Thanks in advance.

My panel crocodile clips go on the battery terminals horizontally, then I clip the energiser ones onto the top of the terminals from above, so they are vertical - if that makes sense

You can clip one set of clips to the other set of clips.

Funny story. I asked one of my liveries to clip the energiser clips to the panel clips on the battery. Wasn't til the 3rd escape that I realised she'd clipped the clips to the plastic bits of the other clip.
