Step Two: Enabling the Heat Function
To enable the heat function on the battery, remove the screw and place the other end of your jumper wire onto the
post. It is important that you do not over-tighten this connection. The connection should be tightened just enough to
engage the lock washer feature on the ring terminal itself, so that vibration does not rattle the connection loose. Now
that the connection is tightened down, the internal heating function of the battery will be activated.
Step Three: Deactivating the Heat-Enable Function
To deactivate the heat-enable function on your heated Dragonfly Energy Battery, simply remove the heat-enable jumper
wire from the heat-enable post. Remember to tape down the end of heat-enable jumper wire with electrical tape and
cover the ring terminal so it does not make contact with other live wires or grounds. Be sure to put the heat-enable
screw back into the post so you
don’t lose
it.
Enabling the Heat Function for Multiple Batteries:
If you purchased multiple heated batteries, there are two ways in which you can set up the heat-enable function for your
battery bank. As with all our battery models it is recommended that you only connect identical battery models. This is
true for the heated battery models as well. Do not connect mismatched battery models.
Option One: The Heat-Enable Jumper Wire
The first option is to install an individual heat-enable jumper wire on every single battery using the steps above from the
“Enabling the Heat Function for a Single Battery” section. Please note, if you proceed with this option, each battery
must
be manually disconnected and reconnected to deactivate or activate the heat-enable function. This option is
recommended for batteries connected in
parallel only
. See the "Wiring Diagrams" section on page 8.
Option Two: Daisy Chained
For option two, you will use the Add-on Kit. We suggest that you configure your daisy chain set up first, then install the
jumper from the heat-enable post to the positive terminal with the on/off switch in line. Whether your system is in
series, parallel, or series-parallel you can daisy chain the enables together to control the heat function from a single
switch.
*ALWAYS ENABLE FROM THE HIGHEST VOLTAGE
. For example, if you have a 48V system, make sure you connect the
jumper wire from the positive terminal that is at 48 volts to the heat-enable post. See the "Wiring Diagrams" section on
page 8.
Installing the Add-on Kit:
To install the Add-on Kit, you will still need to install the heat-enable jumper wire on one battery. For systems set up in
series, the heat-enable jumper wire should be installed on the battery with the highest voltage.
Step One: Making a Connection on the Positive Terminal
After identifying the battery with the highest voltage, remove the M4 x 4mm long screw that comes standard for the
heat-enable post. Place the 14-inch jumper on the enable post with the main jumper and use the M4 x 5mm long screw
from the Heat Battery Kit bag and tighten them down together. Take the free end of the jumper wire and install it onto
the next battery.
Step Two: Connecting Three or More Batteries
Repeat installation of the 14-inch jumper wire for all batteries in the
bank. For each heat-enable post you have two jumper wires
connected to, you will need to swap out the M4 x 4mm screw that
comes standard out for the M5 x 5mm screw that comes in the Add-
on Kit.
