Common Problems

Warning! Electrical Shock and Burn Hazard

Do not dismantle the XPower. It does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Attempting to service the inverter yourself could result in an electrical shock or burn.

Buzz in Audio Systems

Some inexpensive stereo systems have inadequate internal power supply filtering and buzz slightly when powered by the XPower. The best solution is to use an audio system with a good quality filter.
