Powering Devices

Powering 12V DC Devices

To provide power to 12V DC devices (such as a headlamp, fan, etc.), plug your device into the 5.5 mm 12V DC output or

Cigarette Lighter Adapter (CLA).

Short-circuit/overpower protection: The DC output rated power is <120W (max output <145W). If the DC output is short-

circuited or overpowered (load power >120W), the unit will shut down. If this occurs, press the DC switch to resume use.

Notes:

• Before attempting to power your device, confirm whether your DC 12V device supports charging with a 5.5 mm DC header interface

(the diameter of the DC port is 5.5 mm). Otherwise, you may be unable to connect with the unit’s DC output and an adapter may be

needed. For more information, consult the device manufacturer’s documentation.

• The 12V DC output voltage range is 9V and 12.6V with a maximum output current of 12A. DC output voltage drops while the battery

capacity drops due to chemical characteristics of the battery. If your device does not have a built-in input voltage stabilizing function,

it may shut down when input voltage is too low. If this occurs, unplug your device and charge the unit.

Powering AC Devices

WARNING! The AC outlets, AC voltage and frequency are different according to different countries. Please

check first whether the product specifications are consistent with the device specifications before use.

Connect the power cable plug of the electrical device to the AC outlet, then switch on the POWER AC button. The unit will

start providing power to your devices.

Short-circuit/overload protection: During an AC output short-circuit or overload (>600W), the AC output function will stop. If

this occurs, remove the load and press the AC button to reactive the unit.

For some electrical appliances, such as refrigerators, ice machines, laser printers, etc., there will be a short peak power

(up to 1000W or above) upon starting up. This may activate the overload protection feature. If this occurs, remove the

device and press the AC button to reactive the unit.

Short-circuit/overpower protection: The DC output rated power is <120W (max output <145W). If the DC output is short-

circuited or overpowered (load power >120W), the unit will shut down. If this occurs, press the AC button to reactive the

unit.

Note: Turn off the AC switch to save energy if the AC output function is not needed.

5.5 mm DC 12V device

(power <120W)

Cigarette Lighter Adapter (CLA) device

(vacuum, inflation pump, electric wrench,

compact fridge, etc.)

Limited wattage: <500W (lamp, electric fan, TV,

etc.). The AC will shut down when it is short

circuited or the power is overloaded. If this occurs,

remove the device and the unit will recover, then

press the AC output button to switch on the AC

output.
