BATTERY OPERATING TIME
The operating time of battery will vary depending on the charge level
of the battery, its capacity and the power level
drawn by the particular AC load.
The vehicle batteries are not intended for constant deep discharge, they are designed to provide brief periods of very high current needed for engine starting. It is strongly recommended to start the vehicle every hour or two to recharge battery before its capacity drops too low. Operating the inverter from a vehicle battery until the low voltage alarm sounds will shorten the battery'slife.
The inverter can operate whether or not the vehicle'sengine is running, but the normal voltage drop that occurs during starting may trigger the inverter'slow voltage shutdown feature.
The use of a deep discharge battery is strongly advised for longer operating times. Its capacity should be selected based on the desired operating time.
