• Insert a battery pack into the power source.
• Press and hold the power button (  ) for 1.5 seconds to turn the power source on. The LED will light up green when ready to use.
• Plug devices you want to power or charge into the power source’s USB ports and/or 120 volt receptacle.
• If the power button LED blinks red, the power source may be overloaded. Disconnect your device, make sure your battery pack is sufficiently charged to power your device, then press the button to reset the power source. Reconnect your device and try again. If the fault condition immediately
  reoccurs, the item being powered exceeds the capacity of the power source.
