Charging Compatibility
- The Reolink TrackMix LTE Plus supports charging only via the Reolink Solar Panel Plus.
- The Reolink Solar Panel Plus must always remain connected to the battery, even if the battery is fully charged. Without the solar panel connected, the camera will not operate even if the battery has remaining power.
- The Reolink TrackMix LTE Plus's power input interface and the Reolink Solar Panel Plus output interface are non-standard interfaces, so they can only be mutually adapted for use. The solar panel cannot support other regular battery units, and the camera also cannot be powered by regular Reolink solar panels or power adapters.
