Charging Your Product

ATTENTION
If the ambient temperature is too high or the battery temperature is higher than 53 °C due to continuous high-power discharge, the product cannot be charged. When the battery temperature is less than 50 °C, the charging function will automatically resume.

LCD Battery Display

There are 5 segments to the battery, approximating 20% – 40% -60% -80% – 100% capacity. As you use your product, segments will disappear from the display, indicating the remaining charge. When charging your product you will notice a battery segment blinking at a 1-second interval status. Once your product is fully charged, all battery segments will be lit and remain solid.

Charge Through Solar Panel

GOLABS Portable Power Generator - 04

  1. Place your solar panel where it will get as much strong direct sunlight as possible.
  2. Connect the output port of the solar panel with the input port of the product to start charging. You will know the product is being charged when the LCD display indicators blink. The product is fully charged when all battery indicators stop blinking and remain solid.

Notes:
The actual charging efficiency can vary widely depending on weather, ambient temperature, sunlight’s strength, the angle that the solar panels face to the straight sunlight, and other factors. The maximum output voltage of the solar panel should not exceed 22V. In order to ensure solar charging efficiency, it is recommended to use solar panels with an open circuit output voltage of 18-22V.

Charge Through AC Adapter

GOLABS Portable Power Generator - 05Plug the original adapter into the machine’s DC input port and you will see the battery indicators on the screen blink.

Notes:

  1. The product is fully charged when all battery indicators stop blinking and remain solid. After the product is fully charged, please unplug the AC wall charger in time.

Notes:
When the product’s AC, DC, and USB output at the same time, and the total battery current is greater than 38A, after 5 minutes of operation, the product’s buzzer will alarm, and the LCD screen will display the fault code E11. If the alarm continues for more than 30 seconds, it has not been cleared. The product will forcibly turn off the DC output to reduce the total output current of the battery and ensure the safety of the product, When the DC output is turned off due to overload, please do not force it to turn on again by pressing the button. When the battery voltage is less than 11.6V, the DC output function will be forcibly closed, and it needs to be charged to release it.
