Power Draw

The AM/FM radio on the back panel is powered by the internal battery in the XPower Powerpack 400 R.

When turned on, the radio draws 30 mA, allowing you to use the radio for more than one month when the XPower Powerpack 400 R is fully charged.

Listening to the AM Band

Due to signal interference, you cannot listen to the AM band while using the XPower Powerpack 400 R to operate an AC appliance.
