Charging the Product

There are five ways to charge:

1. Charging mode 1: From AC Wall outlet
   Press the main power button to start charging after connecting the product to the AC wall outlet. The charging will automatically stop when it reaches 100%.
2. Charging mode 2: From the solar panels
   Choose a solar panel with working voltage DC 35V-150V. Connect the solar panel to the product via the included solar charging cable. Plug and play charging: it will start charging automatically after connecting the solar panel, even if the unit is off. Max. current of the solar input is 12A.
3. Charging mode 3: From the car lighter port
   Press the power button and connect to the cigarette lighter port through the car charging cable. Enter the setting interface as shown in Figure 2 through the display screen to set DC input source to car mode. The product can be charged with 8.2A maximum current.
4. Charging Mode 4: From a generator (gasoline, propane or diesel)
   Connect the AC adapter input to the generator and the output port to the AC charging port of the machine. Press the power button; the product will be charged, and the charging will automatically stop when it reaches 100%.
5. Charging mode 5: From lead acid battery
   Connect to the positive and negative poles of the battery through the provided solar charging cable (pay attention to distinguish the positive and negative poles; the red head is the positive pole, and the black head is the negative pole). Enter the setting interface as shown in Figure 2 through the display screen to set DC input source to "car mode". The product can be used for car charging mode, with a maximum current of 8.2A. The product has the function of anti-over-discharge for lead-acid batteries.

Discharging

(1) To turn on 12V / 25A, 12V / 3A, cigarette lighter port, USB, and Type-C outputs: first, press the power button, then enter the main interface through the touch screen, click the DC ON/OFF button and confirm. To turn off these outputs, perform the same steps by clicking the DC ON/OFF button again.

(2) To turn on AC output: first, press the power button, then enter the main interface through 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.

Application Scenario

(1) Outdoor:

• Car equipment: car fridge, car vacuum cleaner, and other car equipment.
• Camping equipment: garden electric tools (e.g., blowers, lawn mowers, electric drills, electric saws), BBQ grills, LED lights, etc.

(2) Indoor:

• Refrigerator, kitchen devices such as kettle, toaster, blender, coffee maker, rice cooker, laptops, phones, lighting, etc.

Examples of Loads

(1) 12V/25A, 12V/3A, cigarette lighter port, USB, and Type-C output ports are suitable for most products on the market. However, some products may trigger overcurrent protection if they have a large current impact at the moment of starting.

(2) The power of electrical products used for AC output should be less than 2000W. Depending on the technical specifications of different electrical products, some air conditioners, motors, and other devices requiring high starting current may trigger the overload protection when the ratio of peak value to rated current exceeds 3:1. In such cases, it is recommended to select electrical appliances with a lower power rate.

(3) If the output is overloaded, over-current, or short-circuited, the product will turn off the corresponding output and then attempt to restart automatically twice (at 20-second intervals). If an overload, over-current, or short-circuit alarm persists, the output will be locked, requiring manual troubleshooting and restart. If the outputs repeatedly shut down after restarting, stop using the device immediately (only after troubleshooting) or contact the seller or maintenance agent for assistance.

(4) When the battery power is discharged to 0%, the DC and AC outputs will automatically turn off. The DC and AC outputs can only be turned on when the battery power is above 5%, which protects the battery and extends its cycle life.

(5) This machine supports simultaneous charging and discharging.

Estimation of Operating Time

Formula: 2000Wh × DOD × η ÷ (Load W) = Charging time (unit: h). Note: DOD is the battery discharge depth, η is the local inverter efficiency. DOD=90%, η=88%.

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. Reserve 10% of the energy 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. For battery maintenance, it is recommended to fully charge the AC200P at least once per month.
• 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 continuously. The starting power of refrigerators, air conditioners, and electric drills is generally 5-7 times their nominal power, which can easily trigger the AC overload protection.
• Can two products be used in parallel?
  No.
• Can I use third-party solar panels?
  You can use any available 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 if your appliances can be powered by this portable power station, calculate the continuous load of each appliance you intend to run simultaneously to ensure the total wattage is within the generator's capacity. You can find the appliance's wattage on its manufacturer's information label. Add all wattages of appliances to be run to determine if the total wattage is within the maximum continuous and surge watts.
• Can I connect the product to my home circuit breaker box?
  No.
