Setting Up Your Inverter
Cobra Pro Power Inverters are equipped with (2) settings to accommodate battery run times for both professional trucks and other vehicles. From the factory the inverter defaults to a 1 1.5 Volt Low Votage Alarm setting for professional trucks. If using a Cobra Pro Power Inverter with other vehicle types such as a car, van or RV, run time can be extended by changing the default Low Voltage Alarm to the alternate setting at 10.5 Volts.
Instructions For Changing Low Voltage Alarm Setting to 10.5 Volts
- Turn Power Inverter on
- Press and hold the POWER button for 5 seconds or until input Voltage LED turns blue
