the accessory or equipment plugged
in for a long time may cause battery
discharge.
Do not use an electric accessory or equipment the power consumption of
which is greater than 150W (115V).
When the AC inverter input voltage is less than 11.3V, the power will be
automatically turned off.
AC inverter will operate as normal
when the voltage is increased.
When the AC inverter input voltage is less than 10.7V, power will turn
off. The AC inverter will operate as
normal when the voltage is
increased. While the power consumption of
some electrical devices/appliances
may be within the AC inverter’s
electric power range, it may mal-
function in below cases.
- If the device/appliance requireshigh electric power for initial start
up
- If the device/appliance processes precise/very accurate data
- If the device/appliance requires very stable supply of electricityWireless smart phone charg-
