  • Page 2: Important Safety Information

    Thank you for purchasing the Energizer EN150 Connected to the 12-volt outlet in your vehicle, the EN150 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 EN150 and save it for future reference .
  • Page 3 Warnings and Cautions The EN150 housing may become uncomfortably warm, reaching 60 °C (140 °F) under extended high power operation. During operation, keep it away from materials that may be affected by high temperatures. EN150 in the presence of Do not use the 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 8: Using The Inverter

    Through its AC outlet, the EN150 is capable of powering most 120V AC products that use 150W or less. The EN150 cup inverter can also power or charge most consumer electronics that have USB power ports. The EN150 AC output waveform, called “modified sine wave”...
  • Page 9 Plug a DC cable into the DC cable port on the EN150 and connect to a 12V cigarette lighter receptacle. Plug the device you want to operate into the EN150 When the inverter is not in use, unplug it from the 12V outlet to prevent slight discharge of the battery.
