The inverter is capable of running most chargers and transformers.
It is also ideal for use with Vector 12 volt DC cordless, portable and rechargeable DC power
supplies and jump-starter products.
CAUTIONS (Rechargeable Devices)
• Certain rechargeable devices are designed to be charged by plugging them
directly into an AC receptacle.
• These devices may damage the inverter or the charging circuit.
• When using a rechargeable device, monitor its temperature for the initial ten
minutes of use to determine if it produces excessive heat.
• If excessive heat is produced, this indicates the device should not be used with
this inverter.
• This problem does not occur with most of the battery-operated equipment. Most
of these devices use a separate charger or transformer that is plugged into an
AC receptacle.
STORAGE
1. Ideal storage temperature range is 50-68°F (10-20°C).
2. Store and use the Pocket Power Inverter in a cool, dry place with adequate
ventilation for all-around air circulation.
3. Avoid locations that are exposed to heating units, radiators, direct sunlight, or
excessive humidity or dampness.
COMMON AUDIO/VISUAL PROBLEMS
Problem:
Buzzing Sound In Audio Systems
Some inexpensive stereo systems and boom boxes make a buzzing sound when
operated from the inverter, because the power supply in the electronic device does not
properly filter the modified sine wave produced by the inverter. The only solution to
this problem is to use a sound system that has a higher quality power supply.
Problem:
Television Interference
The Pocket Power is shielded to minimize interference with TV signals. However, in
some instances, some interference may still be visible, especially when the TV signal
is weak. Try the following to improve the picture:
1. Move the Pocket Power Inverter as far away as possible from the TV set, the
antenna, and the antenna cables. Use a short AC extension cord, if necessary.
2. Adjust the orientation of the antenna cables, and the TV power cord to minimize
interference.
3. Make sure that the antenna feeding the TV provides an adequate (snow free)
signal and that high quality, shielded antenna cable is used.
COMMON POWER OUTPUT PROBLEMS
Possible Causes Recommendations

Equipment being operated Reduce load.
draws too much power.
Inverter in thermal Allow inverter to cool down. Ensure
shutdown condition. that there is adequate ventilation
around unit, and load is no more
than 70 watts for continuous
operation.
Main fuse failed (blown). Replace fuse in DC connector.

to maintain regulation.
FUSE REPLACEMENT
If the Pocket Power Inverter is overloaded, and the green LED is not lit, the internal 15
ampere fuse may be blown.
1. Unscrew the flange of the Pocket Power Inverter (counterclockwise).
2. Remove the end contact, flange and fuse.
3. Inspect the fuse to see if it is good or blown.
4. Replace with a new 15 amp fuse, if needed.
5. Carefully reassemble the fuse, end contact and flange. Do not overtighten the
flange (clockwise).
