Recharging the XPower Powerpack Battery
To check the XPower Powerpack’s charge level, press the
Battery Level button.
You can recharge the battery using:
• the fully automatic “plug-in-and-forget” AC charger.
• the DC charging cable to recharge from your vehicle as
you drive.
• a generator equipped with a regulated 12 V battery
charging outlet.
• a solar panel.
Recharging with the AC Charger
Recharging with the AC charger is a true “plug-in-and-
forget” charging method.
CAUTION
Due to inherent self-discharge, lead acid batteries must be charged at
least every 3 months, especially in a warm environment. Leaving a
battery in a discharged state, or not recharging every 3 months, may
result in permanent battery damage and poor jump-starting
performance.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to recharge the XPower Powerpack battery if it is
frozen. Gradually warm the frozen battery to 0°C (32°F) before
recharging.
Note
: The XPower Powerpack Battery Level LEDs are only
accurate when the XPower Powerpack has been disconnected
from all appliances and all charging sources for 15 minutes.
