Recharging the XPower Powerpack Battery
27
Recharging with the AC Charger
Recharging with the AC Charger is a true “plug-in-and-
forget” charging method.
To recharge with the AC Charger:
1. Disconnect any 12 volt DC appliances.
2. Turn the AC Outlet On/Off switch to off, and turn the
fluorescent light switch off.
3. Plug the AC Charger into a standard AC wall outlet.
4. Insert the AC Charger cable end into the Charger Input
Socket.
5. While the XPower Powerpack is recharging, the
Recharge indicator is amber. If the battery is completely
discharged, a typical recharge may take up to 40 hours.
When fully charged, the Recharge indicator changes to
green and the XPower Powerpack is ready to use.
Once the battery is fully charged, the charging voltage
and current automatically reduces to a low maintenance
level and the XPower Powerpack may be left
permanently connected to the AC Charger. If your utility
power is interrupted, the charging process automatically
restarts when power returns.
Important:
The 40 hour charging time for the XPower
Powerpack assumes that there is 120 volts at the AC wall outlet. If
the voltage is less than 120 volts AC, it may take more than 40
hours to fully recharge the XPower Powerpack. If, after 40 hours
of charging, the Recharge indicator is still amber and not green,
continue to charge the unit for another 15 hours. The battery will
be fully charged even if the Recharge indicator is still amber.
CAUTION
Do not operate AC or DC appliances while the XPower
Powerpack is being recharged with the AC Charger.
The AC Charger may fail if AC appliances or 12 volt
DC appliances are operated while the AC Charger is
connected.
