Recharging the XPower Powerpack 600HD Battery

Recharging with the DC Charging Cable

Using the DC charging cable, the XPower Powerpack can be recharged while you drive your vehicle.

Important: Although the charge regulation circuitry in the XPower Powerpack does not operate with this charging method, most vehicle voltage regulators will ensure that the XPower Powerpack is not overcharged.

WARNING: Fire and explosion hazard

Do not use this recharging method if your vehicle has abnormally high voltage electrical systems that operate above 15 V DC. This may lead to accumulations of hydrogen, causing exposure to fire and explosion hazard.

CAUTION

Do not operate AC or DC appliances while the XPower Powerpack is being recharged with the DC charging cable from your vehicle.

To recharge the XPower Powerpack while you drive using the DC charging cable:

1.While the vehicle engine is running, plug one end of the DC charging cable into the DC power socket of the XPower Powerpack.

2.Plug the opposite end of the DC charging cable into the vehicle’s lighter socket or 12 V accessory outlet.

3.Once the XPower Powerpack is fully charged or if your vehicle’s engine is not running, disconnect the DC charging cable from both sockets.

Most of the capacity will be restored in four hours while the vehicle engine is running.
