Recharging With A Generator's Regulated 12 Vdc Outlet - Duracell DRPP300S1 Owner's Manual

Recharging with a Generator's Regulated 12 V
DC Outlet
WARNING: Fire and explosion hazard
The generator output must be intended for battery charging
and have an output of 15 V or less. An unregulated output
or one that exceeds 15 V DC can damage the battery. This
may lead to accumulations of hydrogen, causing exposure
to fi re and explosion hazard.
Refer to the Owner's Guide accompanying your generator
for detailed instructions on connecting the generator to a
unit like the Duracell
You can recharge the battery of the Duracell
using a generator in several ways:
• Using a generator that has an auxiliary regulated
12 V DC output designed for charging 12 V DC
batteries. Most generators are equipped with them.
Use this power source for faster charging.
• Using a generator with a regulated 12 V DC lighter
socket. Follow the connection instructions in
"Recharging with the DC Charging Cable" on page
24. Using the AC charger to recharge the Duracell
Powerpack from a generator is possible, but would
require extended generator running time. Most of
the Duracell
recharged in a few hours.
Note: The Battery Level LEDs are only accurate when
the Duracell
appliances and all charging sources for 15 minutes.
