I do have a TrackMix LTE in my mountain hut using the Reolink Solar Panel 2.

I have seen a Solar Power Manager supporting 10000mAh which I thought could be a nice idea to extend the battery life significantly. My idea is to have this device in between the Solar Panel 2 <-> USB-C charing the Solar Power Manager <-> USB-to-USB-C out <-> Reolink TrackMix LTE.

The specs of the Solar Power Manger are as following:
The Solar Power Manager (B) is compatible with general 6V~24V solar panels. It can recharge the 3.7V rechargeable Li-po battery through solar panel or USB TYPE-C connection, and provides 5V / 3A regulated output (with multi protocols support including PD/QC/FCP/PE/SFCP).
The module features MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) function and multi protection circuits, therefore, it is able to keep operating with high-efficiency, stability, and safety. It is suitable for solar powered, low-power IoT, and other environmental protection projects.

• Supports MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) function, maximizing the efficiency of the solar panel
• Flexible battery recharging: from solar panel or USB TYPE-C power adapter
• Compatible with 6V~24V solar panels, DC-002 jack input or screw terminal input
• Onboard MPPT SET switch, select the level closed to input level to improve recharging efficiency
• Onboard aluminum electrolytic capacitor and SMD ceramic capacitor, reducing the ripple, stable performance
• PH2.0 battery connector, with embedded 10000mAh 3.7V rechargeable Li-po battery
• Several LED indicators, for monitoring the status of solar panel and battery
• Multi protection circuits: over charge / over discharge / reverse-proof / over heat / over current, stable and safe to use

The main concern is the 5V/3A output of the Solar Power Manager. The TrackMix LTE specs are 5V/2A for its input.

Would my idea work?

With kind regards
