The Power Bank 1200 is a portable battery designed to fit your lifestyle. Its small size makes it easy to keep on hand for charging your devices at a moment’s notice. Let’s get you started.

3. Press and hold the multifunction button for 2 seconds to power on.
4. When finished, disconnect Power Bank from your device and place the rubber cap over the connector

Charging

Please fully charge your Power Bank before using the first time.

To charge, connect the included USB cable to your Power Bank and to the USB wall adapter that came with your iPod or iPhone. When connected, the LED light on the front of the unit will begin to flash indicating that it is charging. It is fine to leave your iPhone or iPod connected when charging as Power Bank ensures your device always gets priority. Charge times with a device connected will vary depending on its current charge level. Charge time for Power Bank alone is approximately 1.5 hours from a standard USB iPod/iPhone wall adapter.

Note: USB wall adapter sold separately.

Note: It is normal for Power Bank to be warm to the touch while in use.
