Getting Started:

Charging your Battery Generator

IMPORTANT – CHARGE BEFORE USE: Fully charge the Battery Generator before using it and/or storing it. Keep the unit plugged in when not in use so it is ready when you need it. The charger is designed to maintain the battery in a healthy state.
BEFORE YOU START: See “Safety Information” section for important precautions. The user should conform to all safety precautions in the guide. Keep this guide in a safe place for future reference.
IMPORTANT: The Battery Generator should be placed in a dry, well ventilated area with at least 6 inches of space on all sides for proper ventilation.
IMPORTANT: The 12V, AC and USB ports must be turned Off after use in order to conserve battery energy.

• The Battery Generator can be charged from grid power (AC or Type-C USB) or solar energy (solar panels).
• If your Battery Generator is fully discharged (0% available power), the LCD screen will be completely dark. This screen will illuminate as soon as the Battery Generator is connected to power, letting you know that the unit is charging, and will continually display the charge level as the Battery Generator charges.

Charging your Battery Generator from an AC outlet
Estimated Charge Time: 7 hours to full
NOTE: The 7 hour charge time may vary depending on your AC outlet power and the climate (Battery Generator may charge more slowly in very high or low temperatures). Plug the other end of the charger into an AC outlet, then plug the barrel of the AC Charger* into the DC Input Port on the back of the Battery Generator. The LCD Screen will show the Charging Indicator (lighting bolt) and the Fuel Gauge will show the charge level.

Keep charged for immediate use
You may keep the Battery Generator plugged into your AC outlet for maintenance charging. The internal charger is designed to optimize power without overcharging the battery. We recommend keeping your Battery Generator charged so it provides maximum power when you need it.
*AC charger is included with the Battery Generator
Important Note:
All outputs (AC, 12V DC, and USB) will automatically turn off during charging via AC, solar or Type-C USB input.

Charging your Battery Generator from a solar panel
Estimated Charge Time: 5 hours to full
NOTE: The DC Input port will automatically optimize the voltage and current to provide the most efficient charging to the Battery Generator.
NOTE: The five hour charge time may vary depending on solar exposure and the climate (Battery Generator may charge more slowly in very high or low temperatures).

Connect your solar panel** (50W max) to the DC Input Port in the back of the Battery Generator using the included Solar Input Cable. The LCD Screen will show the Charging Indicator (lighting bolt) and the Fuel Gauge will show the charge level.

Optimizing Your Solar Charging
The DC Input port can take up to 50W of charging power.
To obtain the fastest charge time, position your solar panel where it will receive the maximum exposure to direct sunlight. If the solar panel is placed in shade or is used in cloudy conditions, it may take significantly longer to charge your Battery Generator.
You may also keep the Battery Generator connected to the solar panel for continued charging. It is recommended to keep the Battery Generator charged so it is ready any time.
**Solar panel sold separately

Charging your Battery Generator from a Type-C USB charger
Estimated Charge Time: 4 hours to full
NOTE: The Type-C USB wall charger is sold separately and is not included with the Battery Generator.
NOTE: You may also charge the Battery Generator with a Type-C car charger. To use a car charger, follow Step 1 below, except plug your Type-C charger into your car’s 12 Volt DC power outlet. Plug your Type-C charger*** into the USB Type-C Port on the front of the Battery Generator. The LCD Screen will show the Charging Indicator (lighting bolt) and the Fuel Gauge will show the charge level.

Using the Type-C Port to charge your Battery Generator
Input is 60W. To optimize charge time when using the Type-C port, use at least a 60W charger. Lower power Type-C chargers will result in longer charge times
***Type-C charger sold separately

Using your Battery Generator

Each output port (12V, USB, AC) has a separate power button. The active port(s)’ name(s) are indicated in the LCD display. Once all the ports are off, the LCD display turns off after 4 seconds. Plug your item(s) into the Battery Generator and press the button to activate the outlets.
(Example shown: USB ports) The LCD Screen will show the active ports. (Example shown: USB port active)

Connecting Multiple Items
NOTE: The 12V accessory socket and AC outlet can NOT be used simultaneously due to power limitations. The USB ports can be used simultaneously with other ports.
Conserving Battery Power
When you are done using the outlet(s) and USB port(s), press the button again to turn them off. This will keep the internal battery from passively draining.
