1. Charging/recharging your Powerpack
IMPORTANT - BEFORE YOU START
Please fully charge your Powerpack before using it for the fi rst time. It is
also recommended to fully recharge your Powerpack after each use.
1. Locate the AC charging cord stored in the compartment near the
Powerpack's handle.
2. Plug the cord into the Powerpack's AC charging input.
3. Plug the other end of the cord into an AC wall outlet.
4. Charging time is approximately 24 hours from a fully discharged battery
to a full recharge.The Battery Status LED will turn green when fully
charged.
5. It is safe to leave the Powerpack plugged into an AC wall outlet so that it
is always fully charged and ready when you need it. The charging current
will automatically reduce to "maintenance" mode once the Powerpack
has been fully charged.

Powerpack Charging: Important Notes
• Do not operate DC appliances with the Powerpack Pro while the
Powerpack is being recharged with the AC cord. The AC cord may be
permanently damaged if 12V DC appliances are operated while the AC
cord is connected.
• If you keep the Duracell ® Powerpack Pro in storage, the battery will
discharge over time. Remember to recharge the battery every three
months to keep the Powerpack operational.
• If the voltage in your wall outlet is less than 120V AC, it may take more
than 24 hours to fully recharge the powerpack. If, after 24 hours of
charging, the Battery Status LED remains red, continue to charge the unit
for another 12 hours. The unit will be ready for use even if the Battery
Status LED remains red.
2. Checking the battery level
1. Push the Battery Level button on the
front panel.

2. The LED gauge will display the current
level of available battery power:
• Fully charged: All LEDs (two
green, one yellow and one red) are
3 1
illuminated when the battery is full.
• Completely discharged: Only the
red LED is illuminated when the
battery is completely empty.
Battery Level: Important Notes
Battery fuel gauge status is only accurate when the Powerpack has
been disconnected from all appliances and all charging sources for
15 minutes.
3. Using the LED light

again to turn off the light.
4. Using the USB ports
The Powerpack's dual USB ports can charge two USB devices at once, sup-
plying up to 2.4 total Amps of current.
1. Connect your USB device (smartphone, tablet, etc.) to your own USB
cable.
2. Plug the USB cable into the Powerpack's USB port.
3. Push the "USB On/Off" button.
4. Charging will begin. The Powerpack will adjust the amount of current
supplied to each device based on its requirements.
5. Push the "USB On/Off" button again when done.

5. Using the AC outlets
The Powerpack's dual USB ports can power two AC appliances at once, up to
a total of 240W for Powerpack Pro 1000, or 480W for Powerpack Pro 1300.
For best results, ensure that your Powerpack is fully charged before using the
AC outlets.

AC Appliances: Important Notes
Understanding appliance wattage
• AC appliances are rated by how much electrical power (in watts)
they consume. The fewer watts an AC appliance uses, the longer the
Powerpack will operate before recharging is required.
• Some appliances may be diffi cult or impossible to operate from the
Powerpack if they have a high surge rating or are not suitable for use
with the Powerpack.
Trouble Appliances
To avoid damage to your AC appliance, the Powerpack is not
recommended for use with the following:
• Electronics that modulate RF (radio frequency) signals on the AC line.
• Speed controllers found in some fans, power tools, kitchen appliances,
and similar appliances.
• Some chargers for small rechargeable batteries can be damaged.
• Metal halide arc (MHI) lights can be damaged.
High Surge Appliances
"Surge" power is the initial amount of power required to start an
appliance.
• Appliances such as televisions and appliances with motors consume
much more power than their average (continuous use) rating when they
are fi rst switched on. This may exceed the capabilities of the Powerpack
and trigger the safety overload shutdown circuit.
6. Using the 12V DC power outlet
The Powerpack can operate 12V DC appliances (such as those that plug
into a vehicle's lighter socket) that draw 20 Amps of power or less.
1. Open the protective cover on the DC power outlet and plug your
appliance into the port.
2. Turn the appliance on (if required). The Powerpack will automatically
supply power to your appliance.

3. Fully recharge the Powerpack as soon as possible after use.
12V DC Outlet: Important Notes
Battery power drain
• As the DC power outlet is internally wired directly to the Powerpack's
battery, it does not automatically switch off. Check the battery status
periodically to prevent total battery discharge.
• Extended operation of a 12V DC appliance may result in excessive
battery discharge.
High-consumption DC appliances
• If your 12V DC appliance draws more than 20 Amps, the Powerpack's
internal circuit breaker shuts off the power to your appliance. You
will not be able to use this appliance with the Powerpack. If shutoff
occurs, unplug your appliance. The Powerpack's internal circuit breaker
automatically resets after a few seconds.
