this is pretty much a quick little um booklet that explains pretty simply how you look up the uh app which is a pretty good app in fact um so pretty intuitive um user friendly

multiple charging options (wall, solar, car)
A standout feature is the app, which allows full control and monitoring, something competitors lack.
While impressed overall, they mention that the parallel feature was not functional on the early prototype units tested.
