Suggested Remedy
Recharge or replace the
battery.
Reset unit by turning OFF,
then back ON.
Disconnect load from
inverter. Operate inverter
without load for a few
minutes. Reconnect load.
Tighten all DC connections.
Recharge battery. Remove
load from inverter while
recharging battery.
appliance is drawing too
much voltage and will not
work with this inverter.
Make the load not purely
inductive (i.e., operate an
incandescent lamp at the
same time as power tool).
Keep inverter and antenna
distant from each other.
Use shielded antenna.
Connect antenna to
amplifier.

In most instances, 5 to 10 hours of operating time is achievable. However, Some inexpensive stereo systems and “boom boxes” emit a buzzing sound from their Vector recommends that the operator start the vehicle every half hour to recharge the speakers when operated from the Power Inverter. This occurs because the power battery system.
