DC Appliance Compatibility
The Power Pack can run/charge 12VDC
auto, RV, marine, or other portable
appliances that draw 15 amps or less.
The lower the amount of watts the appliance draws,
the longer the Power Pack can
run/charge it before needing to be recharged.
Calculate the total wattage needed to run the
appliance before operation. You do not need
to calculate startup or surge wattages.
To calculate the size of the load you plan to use
with the Power Pack, use the following formula:
Amps x Volts = Watts
For example, if you use an appliance whose running
amps is 7 amps, you will need 84 watts of power
(7 amps
x 12V = 84 Watts)
to run the items. This figure is within
the capacity of the unit
(15 amps x 12V = 180 Watts).
Note:
Use this chart as a guideline only.
The actual power usage may vary based on the
model or brand of the appliance. Check the actual
wattage of your appliances and calculate the
amount of power needed to run/charge them.
