15. te mA is the abbreviation for Milliampere which is a unit of electrical current flow In this case it is the measurement of current into the battery when charging and it will range between 0 and 150 mA The charging measurement is taken each time the status is reguested and is a snap shot of the conditions at that particular moment in time This measurement is highly variable and depends directly upon the level of sunlight on the solar panel Be aware of external influences which affect the light level these are direction and angle of exposure of the solar panel to the light source sky conditions clouds man made structures or trees which cause shadows on all or part of the solar panel and maintenance of the solar panel itself to keep it clean Current flow is also highly dependent upon the battery state of charge and the status measurement may report zero or low mA even when solar and all other conditions are optimum For example the solar panel could be outputting 40 mA on a battery that has a low charge however on a battery with near full charge the output may only be 10 mA Solar Smart limits the maximum charge current for safety reasons to extend battery life and to prevent over charging damage to the battery Battery Alerts 14 The R icon will be displayed on the remote when the remote batteries are in need of replacement The icon will be displayed when the operator battery is low When the operator battery
