SERIES OPERATION

Two iGen1000s Power Stations can be
connected to provide continuous power with
twice the battery capacity.
Note: During series operation, do not connect
either of the Power Stations to the power
grid with an AC charging cable to prevent
activating the over-current protection.
1. Charge both Power Stations to 100%.
Note: Do not charge more than two Power
Stations at the same time to prevent an
excessive load on your home power grid.
2. Connect an AC cable to any AC outlets on the
Master unit and the other side of the cable to
the AC charging input port of the Active unit
as shown.

The iGen1000s can be used as a temporary
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) to provide
0
continuous power in case of a power outage.

You can use the iGen1000s AC outlets while
the Power Station is connected to a wall socket
with the AC power supply (the AC power comes
from the power grid, not the battery). When the
power grid suddenly loses power, the connected
1580
device can automatically switch to iGen1000s
battery power in approximately 30ms to ensure
+ 600
your work is not interrupted.

Note: Do not connect devices with high
uninterrupted power supply requirements.
Please perform multiple tests to confirm
compatibility before connecting devices,
such as data servers and workstations to
the iGen1000s.
Because the AC outlets of the iGen1000s are
in a double blade, ungrounded configuration,
it is recommended to use the UPS function
of iGen1000s for temporary emergency use
only.
DO NOT use electric devices with bare metal
when charging to avoid the risk of electric
shock.
