1.3 – Operating Instructions
1.3.1 Power On Operation:

  1. DC Button
    Long press DC Button to activate the USB-A, USB-C ports, and the cigarette socket. Short press to turn off all DC output.

  2. AC Button
    Long press AC Button to activate AC output, to turn on AC output. Short press to turn off AC output.

  3. LED Light Button
    – Long press LED Button to turn on the light (default brightness is 100%).
    – Short press to switch between 100% brightness, 100% brightness, strobe mode and SOS mode.

1.3.2 Shutdown Operation:

To switch the frequency, please long press AC and DC button

Attention
Power-saving mode: To avoid draining the battery, we recommend keeping Power Saving Mode turned on except when you are charging low-powered devices like CPAP machines ,cameras and another low power device. Because we had set the default function of “power-saving mode” ,once the output power is less than 7W, the DC output and USB output will automatically shut down after 15 minutes.
However, If the customer does not want to happen this, they could turn off power-saving mode to enable stable charging and keep devices powered for longer, just long press AC and LED button, the AC icon will flash about 9 times, and they can use the same way to restart the power -saving mode, the AC icon will flash about 3 times.

2. Charging Your Power Station
Please strictly follow the instructions below to charge the power station. Charge the product only when the environment temperature is 32~113°F (0°C~40°C). Please use the original charging adapter and cable.
  Warning: For battery life and safety, do not charge immediately after full discharge is completed. Please wait 2-3 hours to cool down before recharging.

2.1 Use Adapter to Charge Power Station

A. Place the solar panel in a place where it can get enough direct sunlight and adjust the appropriate angle.
B. Connect the solar panel to the power station DC5521 input port.

Warm tip: The actual charging efficiency of the solar panels depends on various factors such as weather, temperature, sunlight, the angle of the solar panel, etc. The actual solar charging efficiency may different.

2.3 – Use 12V Cigarette Lighter to Charge Power Station

6

A. Plug the car charger cable into the 12V car cigarette lighter socket and connect the DC end to the power station.
B. The maximum output current of the car charger needs to be within 10 A to protect the safety of the car battery and power station.

3. Use in Cold Weather

  • Due to the chemical characteristics of LiFePO4 batteries, low temperature 14~113°F (-10~-40°C) will affect the battery capacity of the product. If you are in an environment below 0°C (32°F), it is recommended to place the power station in uninsulated container and connect it to a charging power source (12V car cigarette lighter/ AC adapter/solar panel, etc.). The natural heat generated by the power Station in the insulated container will keep the battery pack efficiency at the highest level.
  • In an environment below 0°C (32°F), the power station cannot be charged, but can output power to other equipment.

4. Discharge of the Power Station
In order to better extend the battery life, the normal discharge of the power station is best controlled within the 1C discharge range (i.e. total output power of 240W). When the battery level is below 10%, the BMS will turn off the AC inverter output, and the rest of the 10% power to power USB devices, and please charge the power Station in time.

FAQ

Why my NEO300 kept shutting off after 10-15 minutes?

What type of battery does DaranEner NEO 300 use?

NEO 300 adopts a new generation of LiFePO4 battery, which is high safety, long life, and good heat resistance.

What should I do if there is a malfunction?

Please contact customer service for troubleshooting. Do not disassemble the machine by yourself.

When the AC output is on, the AC outlet is not connected to the external devices, will it drain battery power in this situation?

When the AC output is turned on, the inverter will be started, and there is a no-load power consumption less than 10W. When the power station is not in use, please close each output interface to prevent battery power drained out.

After fully charge the power station and storing it for a long time without use, how long will the battery drop to 00/0?

When NEO300 is not in use, there is almost no natural discharge (turning off all switches). If it is stored for a long time after being fully charged, it can still remain more than 80% of the power after 3 months. For emergency use, please check the remaining power at least every 3 months.

When using the AC output, there is obvious noise, is it a malfunction?

It is not a malfunction. This is the sound of the cooling fan running. The fan dissipates the internal heat and keeps the battery working in a good temperature environment.

Can this power station be brought on the plane?

NEO300 cannot be carried on aircraft or shipped by air.

After using it for the first time or using a period of time, the remaining battery power displayed onthe LED screen is different from the actual remaining battery power. Or the battery is draining too fast.

The remaining power displayed on the LED screen may differ from the actual remaining power after the first use or after a period of long-term use. If this happens, don't worry. This is because the BMS goes into learning mode. After the first use or use for a long period of time, the battery pack needs to be fully charged and discharged twice, so that the BMS can re-earn and correct the battery power level. DaranEner is working hard to improve the accuracy of the displayed data. Specific operation steps • Use (fully discharge) the power station to 0%. • Then charging the battery to 100% and leaving it for 3 hours or more, and fully discharging again. (Repeat the above discharge and charge operations twice) If the problem persists, please contact customer service.
