Operating AC Appliances

3.Plug the AC Charger into a standard AC wall outlet.

4.Insert the AC Charger cable end into the Charger Input Socket.

The Recharge indicator changes from amber to green when charging is complete (about 40 hours if the battery is completely discharged).

Important: The 40 hour charging time for theXPower Powerpack assumes that there is 120 volts at the AC wall outlet. If the voltage is less than 120 volts AC, it may take more than 40 hours to full recharge the XPower Powerpack. If, after 40 hours of charging, the Recharge indicator is still amber and not green, continue to charge the unit for another 15 hours. The battery will be fully charged even if the Recharge indicator is still amber.

Note: Once fully charged, the charging current automatically reduces to a maintenance charge mode, and the XPower Powerpack may be left permanently connected to the AC Charger.

Understanding AC Appliances

AC appliances are rated by how much electrical power (in watts) they consume. XPower Powerpack can power most appliances within its rating (250 watts 2.1 amps).

Some appliances may be damaged if they are connected to the XPower Powerpack. See “Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances” on page viii.

Some appliances may be difficult or impossible to operate from the XPower Powerpack. They may have high surge requirements or should not be run from the XPower Powerpack. See “High Surge Appliances” on page 15.
