Page 2: Important Safety Information
1 Introduction ® Thank you for purchasing the Energizer EN100 Connected to the 12 volt outlet in your vehicle, the EN100 efficiently and reliably powers a wide variety of loads through both the AC outlet and USB port. Read this guide before connecting or using the and save it for future reference. - Page 3 Warnings and Cautions housing may become uncomfortably EN100 warm, reaching 140° F (60° C) under extended high power operation. During operation, keep it away from materials that may be affected by high temperatures. EN100 Do not use the in the presence of flammable fumes or gases, such as in the bilge of a gasoline powered boat, or near propane tanks.
- Page 4 CAUTION: Risk of Fire. Do not replace any vehicle fuse with a rating higher than recommended by the Vehicle Manufacturer. Ensure that the electrical system in your vehicle can supply this product without causing the vehicle fusing to open. Information on the vehicle fuse rating is typically found in the vehicle operator’s manual.
- Page 5 CAUTION: Output non-sinusoidal Some chargers for small nickel-cadmium batteries EN100 can be damaged if connected to the Do not use the inverter with the following appliances: • Small battery-operated appliances like rechargeable flashlights, some rechargeable shavers, and night lights that are plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.

5 Using the Inverter EN100 Through its AC outlet, the is capable of powering most 120V AC products that use 100W or less. The EN100 can also power or charge mostconsumer electronics that have USB power ports. EN100 AC output waveform, called “modified sine wave”... - Page 9 Connect EN100 to a 12V cigarette lighter receptacle. Plug the device you want to operate into the EN100 When the inverter is not in use, unplug it from the 12V outlet to prevent slight discharge of the battery.
-
Page 10: Inverter Operation
Operating Guidelines • As the battery is used, its voltage begins to fall. When the EN100 senses that the voltage at its DC input has dropped to 10.5V, the inverter automatically shuts down and the light glows RED, indicating a fault. This prevents the battery from being damaged. - Page 11 T hey are not inten ded for constant deep discharge. Regularly operating the EN100 from a vehicle battery until low-voltage shutdown occurs will shorten the life of the battery.
-
Page 12: Battery Operating Time
When using a vehicle battery as a power source, it is strongly recommended to start the vehicle every hour or two to recharge the battery before its capacity drops too low. The EN100 can operate while the engine is running, but the normal voltage drop that occurs during starting of the engine may trigger the inverter’s low voltage shutdown feature. -
Page 13: Interference With Electronic Equipment
Buzzing sound in audio systems and radios Some inexpensive stereo systems and AM-FM radios have inadequate internal power supply filtering and will “buzz” slightly when powered by the EN100. Generally, the only solution is an audio product with a higher quality filter. -
