Troubleshooting & FAQ
MPU
9. Are Tesla™ MPUs used in shop maintenance and testing?
Tesla™ systems are gaining popularity throughout maintenance facilities, instructional facilities, laboratories, manufacturing
plants, aircraft hangars and many other locations. The reason is due to the precise DC power, the small, portable and quiet
nature of our systems and the maintenance free aspect of our MPU’s. We can custom tailor ground power systems to fi t your
individual requirements.
10. Can one person transport it?
MPU is designed to be handled by one person. The TI59 is our smallest MPU system to date and weighs 22 lbs. The
TI47UA1-46AH weighs 99.5 Lbs and can be wheeled on a dolly.
11. Is the Turbo Start™ in the government purchasing system?
Yes. Tesla™ Industries is an approved vendor/supplier – our cage code is OVWE2. Most Tesla™ products are class IX, have a
NSN (National Stock Number) designation and can be acquired through the DLA (Defense Logistics Agency).
12. How long does this unit stay charged?
Unit should never be allowed to discharge fully. In-fi eld use, it receives a dc back charge directly from a running engine.
When not in use, unit should be plugged into ac power (outlet) all the time. Tesla™ systems will retain 80% of their capacity
after one year of storage.

done. Our turnaround time is 48 hours once repairs are authorized.
14. Can I make my own repairs to unit?
During the warranty period, the unit can only be repaired by Tesla™ Industries for the warranty to remain in effect
Regardless, we strongly recommend allowing Tesla™ to repair any unit as we will analyze the complete system and re-
calibrate it.
15. What type of maintenance does the Turbo Start™ require?
Although the systems are maintenance free, please keep units plugged in while not in use. This will greatly extend the life
of the cells. Also, keep the vent areas clean and free of debris. Keep units in a well ventilated area while charging. Keep the
unit in a protected environment when not in use (maintenance facility, shed, etc.).
