Try it with a small adapter on the solar panel/controller modul. Now you
can use (picture on the left) or not use (picture on the right) the panel
without any modifications on the K2.

        solar panel
        controller
             |
             |           main                               main
K2 ---<  <---+---<  <--- power                K2 ---<  <--- power
                         supply                             supply
