*In loaded operation, the voltage of battery is reduced, and LED changes correspondingly; the higher load power is, the more obviously LED changes.
* In loaded operation, in case that the indicator light "Power" (displaying output power) flickers continuously and the buzzing occurs for over 5s, then the equipment is locked automatically, which indicates that the existing electric quantity of battery cannot afford the load, so please reuse if after charging.

Status LED Lamp Alarm
During charging the flash, the instantaneous power may be increased by more than 3 times, e.g. for 100WS flash, its transient current may be equal to that of a 300W lamp. Therefore, when using certain flashes, the indicator light "Power" may flicker with short buzzing, which is normal as the instantaneous power of the flash has exceeded 750W.
If the indicator light "Power" (displaying output power) flickers continuously, occurring buzzing for over 5s, the equipment will be locked automatically.
After locking the equipment automatically, you only need to turn off the mains switch, and then turn it on to reuse.

  1. USB Indicator (working condition)
Status LED Working Condition
Red Yes
Off No
  1. Mode Switch
    LP750X Inverter is equipped with two operating modes including "Normal" (normal mode) and "Flash" (flash mode). Users can choose one of the working modes according to the loaded machine. The "Flash"(flash mode) is specially designed pursuant to the performance characteristics of flashes, also supporting the use of electrical appliances with rated power; however, no power-down mode is provided and the standard battery can stand by for 13 hours continuously in this mode. To the electronic products that continuously output rated power, , it is recommended "Normal" (normal mode) should be used, because it can save electricity; in this case, the standard battery can stand by for 48 hours continuously; in the mode, flashes cannot be used. As for detailed data, see the following "Introduction to Function Mode".
    Note: when turning the Flash (flash mode) mode to standby mode, you need to turn off the power inverter at first. Then, turning it on to finish setting.
  2. Main Switch
    "OFF" refers to power off;
    "ON" refers to power on; at the moment, the equipment can be used;
    "USB" refers to USB charging starts, at the moment, the USB indicator is lit on and portable products can be charged e.g. iPhone, iPad, etc. There is no AC power output in USB mode. USB 1/USB 2: output 5V/2A x 2.
  3. AC Output Socket
    • Two AC output sockets are parallel, and each of them can output the maximum power.
    • AC output standard voltage is 230V/50Hz. If additional requirements are from some special voltage, please consult our relevant personnel prior to purchase.

Operation Instruction

Battery Installation and Detachment

Installation:

  1. Insert the battery into the Battery Compartment.
  2. Push it in until it is locked.

Detachment:

  1. Push up the button and the battery handle will pop out.
  2. Hold upward the button and pull out the handle to remove the battery.
  1. Charging Source
    The charger can connect to 100-240V AC power supply.
    1. Take out the battery.
    2. Insert one end of the charging connect cable into the charging socket of the inverter.
    3. Connect the AC output plug of charging power cable to the charger's AC input socket, and connect the other end of AC input plug to connect any AC power source to start charging.
      Note: please disconnect the power source in time after charging finished.
  2. LED Lamps of the Charger and Battery
    1. The red lamp is flickering: No charging;
    2. The red lamp is lit continuously and green light blinking: In charging;
    3. The green lamp is lit: Completing charging.
      Note: If the battery has been spent, about 3.5 hours is needed to charge it fully. After charging, please pull out the charging connecting cable. To ensure the expected service life of battery, please charge it fully in the following special cases:
      • When the inverter alarms in low battery.
      • Reusing the battery after nonuse beyond 100 days.

Connecting Inverter LP750X

  1. Move the button "Main Switch" to "OFF" (power off).
  2. Insert the load into the "AC Output Socket".
  3. Move the button "Main Switch" to "ON" (power on).
  4. Move the "Mode Switch" to "Flash" (flash mode) or "Normal" (normal mode).
  5. Turn on the load power supply to use.

Note:

  • It is recommended that the modeling light should be closed while using it in a flash, because the modeling light may use up the electric energy in the battery of Inverter in short time.
  • Move the button "Main Switch" of power supply to "ON" (power on); at the moment, the buzzer gives out buzzing, which indicates the Inverter will perform internal detection automatically, and LED indicator lights will display different colors. Finally, the buzzer gives out another buzzing, and the indicator light "Status" (working condition) is green, which indicates the Inverter begins to work normally.
  • In case of outdoor photography, the Inverter can be placed in a waterproof bag to avoid any dust, sand and water. At the moment, users can open the "bag mouths" on both sides of waterproof bag to hang it at the braces, avoiding blocking and sealing "Air Inlet of Cooling Fan".

Connecting Other External Storage Batteries

Connecting an External Battery

Use an external power cable (separately purchase) to connect the inverter to external battery(battery voltage 11-15V). In case that an external battery is used, generally, the capacity of an external storage battery is larger, so the Inverter can work longer than that in using the built-in battery. You can purchase and prepare external batteries with different capacities according to the actual demand to elevate the continuous service time of the product.

  • Take the LEADPOWER Inverter out of the water-proof bag.
  • Reconfirm the Inverter is in the mode of shutdown.
  • Connect the power input port of controller with external power source output port of battery.
  • Connect the external battery and power source by external battery power cable. Please note the anode and cathode.
  • In case that the above connection is correct, move the "Main Switch" of Inverter to "ON" to operate.

The Standard of External Power Cables

  1. Purchasing GODOX standard 2M connecting cables
  • Please ensure the anode and cathode of external battery aren't reversed; otherwise, the fuse of inverter may be burned and even the inverter is damaged irreversibly. We are not responsible for the warranty of any fault caused by the reversion of anode and cathode.
  • No operating in the environment with any flammable and explosive gas.
  • Make sure the power source input port of controller is connected with external power source output port of battery.

Note:

  • When the Inverter is connected with an external battery, you only need to connect the Inverter with battery by connecting the inverter to any external battery by the power cable of external battery and connect the power input port to the external power output port; in this way, the external battery will replace the battery to supply power.
  • The required voltage of external battery is from 11V to 15V.
  • [+] represents anode, while [-] represents cathode.

Introduction to Function Mode

Normal Mode

In the mode, the flash is inappropriate to be used, but supporting the use of any electrical appliance with rated power. The maximum power of used equipment is 750W (3 minutes) with energy-saving function.
In case that the service power exceeds 750W, the indicator light "Power" (displaying output power) will become red and flickering, meanwhile, the buzzing occurs.
Note: When the loaded power is below 45W, please use flash mode. Otherwise, the inverter will automatically enter energy-saving function in the normal operating when the loaded power is below 45W and there is no AC output.

Flash Mode

The mode is designed in accordance with the performance characteristics of flashes, supporting the use of the second-level flash products and electrical appliance with rated power but without the power-down mode.
When an electrical appliance with rated power is used, please refer to the output time.

Maintenance

This product, except consumables e.g. charger and charger cable, is supported with a one-year warranty.
Avoid sudden impacts and the product should be dedusted regularly.
Maintenance of the flash must be performed by our authorized maintenance department which can provide original accessories.
Unauthorized service will void the warranty.
If the product had failures or was wetted, do not use it until it is repaired by professionals. Changes made to the specifications or designs may not be reflected in this manual.
