Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances
Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a separate charger or
transformer that is plugged into an AC receptacle and produces a low
voltage charging output.
Some chargers for small rechargeable batteries can be damaged if
connected to the Freedom HW. Do not use the following with the
Freedom HW:
• Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors, and night
lights that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.
• Some chargers for battery packs used in powerhand tools. These
affected chargers display a warning label stating that dangerous
voltages are present at the battery terminals.

CAUTION: Equipment damage

Important:
if you are unsure about using your rechargeable appliance with the
Freedom HW, contact the equipment manufacturer to find out if the appliance is
acceptable for use with modified sine wave input voltage. See the detailed
description of the Freedom HW waveform in Appendix A, “Specifications”
under “Electrical Specifications: Inverter Mode” on page A–2.
