Getting Started
Before using your NOMAD 13.5M for the first time, please
follow these simple steps.
1. Activate your warranty by registering your GOALØ gear
at http://www.goal0.com/warranty
2. Open the NOMAD 13.5M by unfolding its fabric case.
3. Remove the clear protective coverings from solar cells.
4. Locate the NOMAD’s stiffening rods in its internal
pocket.
5. Position the NOMAD at an angle that faces the sun.
6. Plug the NOMAD’s charging cable into your GOALØ
power pack.
You are now ready to power up!
Hint: The NOMAD’s performance is enhanced if you
occasionally adjust it’s angle to follow the path of the
sun. You can actually increase production by 200 to
400% by angling the NOMAD properly.

Recharge & Go!
When you’re off the grid you need to know how long it will
really take to power up. You don’t want numbers that
come out of a laboratory based on perfect conditions. At
GOALØ all of our gear is field tested with an independent
team of extreme adventurers that span from alpinists to
ocean rowers. The charging times listed here come from
countless hours of real world testing. That’s why we call it
TruWatt™ - real numbers that you can count on.

Questions you may have...
Q- Is the NOMAD waterproof?
A-The NOMAD is weather resistant. Just remember you
are powering electronics and those devices may not be
waterproof.
Q- Does the NOMAD deliver a full 13.5 watts?
A-The NOMAD is rated to deliver 13.5 watts of power but
the angle of the NOMAD and cloud cover can impact its
performance. Try to keep the NOMAD out of the shade
and adjust its angle to the sun as the day passes to
maximize performance.
Q- Can I chain multiple NOMAD panels together?
A-Yes. With a GOALØ accessory adapter you can charge
your power packs faster by chaining NOMAD’s together.
The panel chaining accessory can be purchased at
http://www.goalØ.com.
Q- Are the NOMAD’s solar cells flexible?
A-No. They can handle some stress but they should not be
bent. Bending the solar cells will break them.
Q- What kind of solar cells do you use in the NOMAD?
A-We use the latest mono-crystalline technology in the
NOMAD. Why? It provides more power per square inch
than any other solar technology on the market.
