4. General Product Usage
4.1 Charging DBS1300
AC Charging
Dabbsson fast charge technology is specifically for AC charging, offering
1000W of max input power. You can control the charging power through the
Dabbsson App. The default max input power for the AC charging speed is 400W,
which can be modified in the Dabbsson app. In case of unusual situations where
the AC input current remains higher than 20A, the charging input port will
initiate a self-protection function, and the Overload Protection Switch on the
product will automatically pop up. After confirming that there is no product
failure, you can press the Overload Protection Switch to resume charging.
You can set the charging power range in the Dabbsson App.
Please use the AC Charging Cable included in the package for fast charging. Do
not use other cables to charge. Plug directly into an AC wall outlet and make
sure that the wall output current is more than 10A. Otherwise, control the
charging power through the Dabbsson App. Dabbsson takes no responsibilities
for any consequences caused by failures to follow instructions, including but
not limited to charging with other AC charging cables.
Solar Charging
Users can connect solar panels in series as shown in the figure to recharge
the product. The product supports 12-60V DC input, 12A max current, and 400W
max charging power.
When charging the product with a Dabbsson solar panel, follow the instructions of this user manual to avoid damage to the product.
AC+PV Charging
You can fully charge the product with AC+PV total 1400W Max input in 1.7
hours.
Car Charging
Users can recharge the product through the Car Outlet. It supports 12V/24V car
chargers and an 8A default charging current.
Only charge using the car charger after you’ve started the car. This prevents
the car from failing to start due to insufficient battery power. In addition,
please make sure that the cigarette lighter of the Car Outlet and the Car
Charger Input Cable are in good condition. Dabbsson takes no responsibilities
for any losses or damage caused by failures to follow instructions.
Using Extra Battery
A single DBS1300 can be connected to two DBS1700B extra batteries for added
capacity. Refer to the Extra Battery DBS1700B user manual for detailed
instructions. DBS1300 can expand the capacity by 1 DBS1700B battery pack to
3030Wh. DBS1300 can expand the capacity by 2 DBS1700B battery pack to 4730Wh.
Precautions
- Turn off both the Extra Battery DBS1700B and DBS1300 before plug or unplug the extra battery.
- Before using, make sure both DBS1300 and Extra Battery DBS1700B display the extra battery icon on their LCD screens.
- Do not touch the metal terminals of the Extra Battery DBS1700B connector. If the metal terminals need to be cleaned, gently wipe them with a dry cloth.
- When the DBS1300 power station and DBS1700B expandable battery are not in use, please remove the connecting cable.
- To protect the battery from over-discharging please unplug the cable when the unit is fully charged or not in use.

briefly press the Main Power Button. To turn off the device, long press the
Main Power Button. The default standby time is 2 hours. The device will
automatically shut down when other power buttons are turned off and no other
power source is detected within 2 hours. Standby time of AC and DC can be set
via the Dabbsson APP.
4.3 Charging Your Devices
AC Output Port
After turning on the main power button, short press the AC power button to use
the AC output port. Press the button again will turn it off. When there is no
load on the AC output port of this product, the power will be automatically
turned off after 2 hours. In ECO mode, the AC output load is less than 5W, the
AC switch will be automatically turned off after 12 hours, and the power will
be turned off after 2 hours. In STANDBY mode, you can set the current output
time. When you don’t need it, please turn it off in time to save power.
12V DC Output Port
After turning on the main power button, short press the 12V DC power button to
use the 12V DC output port. Press the button again will turn it off. When the
12V DC power button is turned on, the product does not automatically turn off.
P-Boost
With Dabbsson P-Boost technology, the product can power a 1600W Max device
while the rated output power remains 1200W, avoiding operation failure due to
overload protection.
P-Boost Tips
- P-Boost is not available when the AC output is turned on in a recharging state.
- P-Boost is not applicable for all electrical appliances; it’s incompatible with appliances with strict voltage requirements and a rated power over 1200W. Appliances with voltage protection (such as precise instruments) are not supported. P-Boost mode is more suitable for heating devices. Please conduct your own tests with your devices with P-Boost enabled.
Emergency Power Supply (EPS)
The product supports EPS. When you connect the grid power to the AC Input Port
of the product through an AC cable, you can power electrical devices through
the AC Output Port (AC power will come from the grid and not the power station
in this situation). In case of a sudden blackout, the product can
automatically switch to the battery powered supply mode within 15ms. As a
basic UPS function, this function does not support 0ms switching. Please do
not connect the product to any device that requires 0ms UPS, such as data
servers and workstations. Please test and confirm the compatibility before
using the product. We recommend that you only charge one device at a time and
avoid using multiple devices at the same time to avoid overload protection.
Dabbsson takes no responsibilities for any device failures or data losses
caused by failures to follow instructions.(When the AC output load is greater
than the input load, only the battery can be used for power supply. Only when
the AC output load is less than the input load, can it be charged while
discharging.)
4.4 Parallel Connection Function
DBS1300 supports the parallel function, which can increase the output power
and expand the battery capacity. Using our special junction box and connecting
wires, two products can be connected, and the output power will be increased
to 2000W, and the battery capacity will be expanded to 2660Wh. At the same
time, this product also supports parallel operation, two products are
respectively connected to two DBS1700B and powered on (2DBS1300+4DBS1700B),
at this time the battery can be expanded to 9460Wh. You can use this product
as a home backup power station in case of a power outage.
Reminder: The parallel junction box and connecting wires need to be purchased
separately; for detailed parameters, please refer to the manual of the
parallel box.

6. FAQS
- What type of batteries does the product use? This product uses high-quality LiFePO4 battery.
- What devices can use the product’s AC output port power? With 1200W rated power and 2400W peak power, the product’s AC output port can power most household appliances. Before using we recommend you check the power of the appliances first and ensure the power sum of all loaded appliances is lower than the rated power.
- How long does it take for the product to charge my devices? The charging time is shown on the product’s LCD Screen, which can be used to estimate the charging time of most appliances with stable power usage.
- How can I tell if the product is charging? The remaining charging time will be shown on the LCD Screen. The charging indicator will display remaining battery percentage, while current input power is shown to the right of the charging indicator.
- How do I clean the product? Please gently wipe it with a dry, soft, clean cloth or paper towel.
- How should I store the product? Before storing, turn off the product first, and then store it in a dry, ventilated area at room temperature. Do not place it near water sources. For long-term storage, discharge the battery to 30% and recharge it to 60% every three months to extend its battery life.
- Can I bring the product on a plane? No
- What is the minimum wattage of solar input you recommend? Due to the large capacity and high output power of this product, it is recommended that the solar input power should be at least 20W.
7. Troubleshooting
8. What’s in the Box
9. Storage & Maintenance
- Ideally, you should use and store the product at an ambient temperature between 20-30 (68-86), and always keep it away from water, intense heat, and sharp objects. Do not store in temperatures above 45 (113) or below -10 (14) for an extended period.
- Storing a battery with a low charge for a long period shortens its lifespan. DBS1300 mitigates the damage by putting the battery into hibernation mode. To get the most out of the battery, make sure it is at about 60% before putting DBS1300 into long-term storage. While in storage, it is recommended to discharge the battery to 30% and recharge it back to 60% every three months.
