XPower 1500 Basic Operation

Operating 115-volt AC Products

1.Ensure XPower 1500’s battery pack is fully charged. See “Recharging XPower 1500” on page 2–16for details.

2.Turn the AC Outlets switch ON. The green POWER light indicates AC power is available at the AC outlets.

3.Plug the AC product(s) you wish to operate into the AC outlet(s) and switch the product(s) ON, one at a time. XPower 1500 will operate most devices rated up to 1350 watts.

4.In the event of an overload, low battery voltage or overheating, the AC outlets will automatically shut down and the red FAULT light will illuminate. See “Automatic Protection: Overload, Overheating, and Low Battery” on page 2–10for details.

5.Fully recharge XPower 1500’s battery pack as soon as possible after each use.

Operating 12-volt DC Accessories

1.Ensure XPower 1500’s battery pack is fully charged. See “Recharging XPower 1500” on page 2–16for details.

2.Plug the accessory into XPower 1500’s DC Power Socket, and switch the accessory on (if required). XPower 1500 will operate any 12-volt DC auto or marine accessory that draws 12 amps or less.

3.Because the DC Power Socket is internally wired directly to XPower 1500’s internal battery pack, extended operation of a 12-volt accessory may result in excessive battery discharge.

Important: Care must be taken to ensure the battery pack does not become totally discharged. See “Powering 12-volt DC Accessories” on page 2–12for details.

Note: The internal cooling fan is thermally activated whenever the AC Outlet’s switch is ON. The cooling fan helps maintain XPower 1500’s output power when products with high power requirements are run.
