Using the light
The XPower Powerpack has a built in incandescent light
which will operate for about 30 hours before the unit needs to
be recharged. The
ON/OFF switch is located beneath the light.
The light can be adjusted up and down by pushing against the
top or bottom of the rim around the lens.
Operating AC Appliances
Understanding AC Appliances
AC appliances are rated by how much electrical power (in
watts) they consume. The XPower Powerpack can power
most appliances within its continuous power rating (320 W,
1.35 A).
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 and
“Trouble Appliances” on page 16.
Run Time on Typical AC Appliances
Important: If you keep the XPower Powerpack in storage, the
battery will discharge over time. Remember to recharge the
battery every three months to keep the XPower Powerpack
operational.
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.
Note
: The fewer watts an AC appliance uses, the longer the
XPower Powerpack will operate before recharging is required.
