7. Discharging

• To turn on 12V / 25A, 12V / 3A, cigarette lighter port, USB, and Type-C output: First, press the power button, then navigate to the main interface via the touch screen, click the "DC ON/OFF" button, and confirm. To turn off these outputs, click the "DC ON/OFF" button again and confirm.
• To turn on AC output: First, press the power button, then navigate to the main interface via the touch screen, click the "AC ON/OFF" button, and confirm. To turn off these AC output ports, click the "AC ON/OFF" button again and confirm.

8. Application Scenario

• (1) Outdoor: Car equipment (car fridge, car vacuum cleaner, etc.); Camping equipment (garden electric tools like blowers, lawn mowers, electric drills, electric saws; BBQ grills, LED lights, etc.).
• (2) Indoor: Refrigerator, kitchen devices (kettle, toaster, blender, coffee maker, rice cooker), laptops, phones, lighting, etc.

9. Examples of Loads

• 12V / 25A, 12V / 3A, cigarette lighter port, USB, and Type-C output ports are suitable for most products, but some may trigger overcurrent protection due to high starting current impacts.
• The power of electrical products used for AC output should be less than 2000W. Devices like air conditioners or motors requiring high starting current (peak value exceeding 3:1 ratio of rated current) may trigger overcurrent protection. It is recommended to select appliances with lower power rates.
• When the output is overloaded, over-current, or short-circuited, the product will turn off the corresponding output and attempt to restart twice (20s interval). If the issue persists, the output will lock and require manual troubleshooting and restart. If output stops repeatedly, cease use immediately (after troubleshooting) or contact the seller/maintenance agent.
• When the battery power discharges to 0%, DC and AC output will automatically turn off. Output can only be restored when battery power exceeds 5% to protect battery life.
• This machine supports simultaneous charging and discharging.

10. Estimation of Operating Time

A grid displaying various appliances (Smartphone, LED lamp, TV, Electric Tool, Fridge, Electric Cooker) with their estimated operating times and power consumption (Wh).

The formula for charging time is: 2000Wh × DOD × η ÷ (load W) = charging time (unit: h).

Note: DOD is the battery discharge depth, η is the inverter efficiency. Default values: DOD=90%, η=88%.

15. FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

• What is the depth of discharge (DoD)?
  To extend battery life, the portable power station has a DoD setting of 90%, meaning only 90% of the battery capacity can be discharged. 10% of the energy is reserved to avoid damage to the battery due to over-discharge.
• Can it be charged and discharged at the same time?
  Yes, it supports pass-through charging for both AC and DC loads. It is recommended to fully charge the AC200P at least once per month to extend battery life if using this feature.
• Can AC output charge a refrigerator, air conditioner, or electric drill?
  Lower power devices can be charged. It is not recommended to use more than 1400W. The starting power of refrigerators, air conditioners, and electric drills is generally 5-7 times their nominal power, which can easily trigger AC overload.
• Can two products be used in parallel?
  No.
• Can I use third-party solar panels?
  Yes, you can use any solar panels as long as they have MC4 connectors and, when wired together, the voltage is between 35V to 150V and the total power does not exceed 700W.
• How do I know if my appliance will work with the product?
  To determine compatibility, calculate the continuous loads of each appliance you want to run simultaneously to ensure the total wattage is within the power station's capacity. Check the appliance's manufacturer information (usually stamped or printed) for its wattage. Add all wattages of appliances to be run to confirm they are within the maximum continuous and surge watts.
• Can I connect the product to my home circuit breaker box?
  No.
