Lighter Plug-in
12V-100W, DC to AC Inverter
Manufactured for:
DC to AC Power Inverter
User’s Guide
1 Placement Guidelines For opmum operaon, the
Power Inverter should be Placed on a at surface such as
the oor of a car. THE LOCATION SHOULD BE:
■Dry - Do not expose to water drip or spray.
■Cool - Operate only in ambient temperatures between
32 F(0C) and 104"F(40C) Keep away from heang vents.
■Well venlated - Allow at least 2 inches(5 cm)
clearance above and on all sides of the Power Inverter
for proper cooling.
2 Using the Power Inverter
Indicators and Controls
■The Power Inverter receives its operang power
through its DC Plug that ts standard vehicle cigaree
lighter sockets and 12-volt power outlets.
■The green POWER light indicates AC power is present
at the AC outlet and the Power
■The red FAULT light indicates inverter shutdown
caused by low or high baery voltage, overload or
excessive temperature.
Read this guide before installing or using the Power
Inverter and save it for future reference.
This Inverter is an ultra compact and highly portable
power system. It is the best way to recharge the
Portable Outlet, in your car or boat. Simply plug the
Power Inverter into your car’s 12-volt lighter outlet.
Then plug the Portable Outlet Power Supply into the
Power Inverter, and plug the other end of the Portable
Outlet into the DC input.
2 Using the Power Inverter cont.
Inverter Operaon
■Plug the Power Inverter DC Plug into a vehicle's
cigaree lighter or 12-volt outlet.
■The green POWER light indicates AC power is available
at the AC outlet.
■As the baery charge is used up, baery voltage
begins to fall. When the Power Inverter senses the volt-
age at its DC input has dropped to 10.7 volts, an audio
warning may be provided. When input voltage drops to
10.0 volts, it will automacally shut down to prevent
baery damage. The red FAULT light illuminates.
■If it exceeds a safe operang temperature, due to
insucient venlaon or a high temperature environ-
ment, it will automacally shut down. The red FAULT
light will turn on and the audio warning may sound.
■Should a defecve baery charging system cause the
baery voltage to rise to dangerously high levels, it auto-
macally shuts down. The red FAULT light will turn on.
CAUTION! Although the Power Inverter incorporates
protecon against overvoltage, it may sll be damaged if
the input voltage exceeds 16 volts.
■In the event of an overload, low baery voltage or
overheang, the Power Inverter will automacally shut
down. (See Secon 5.)
Interference with Electronics Equipment
Generally, most AC products operate with the Power
Inverter just as they would with household AC power.
Buzzing Sound in Audio Systems - Some inexpensive ste-
reo systems and "boom boxes" have inadequate internal
power supply ltering and“ buzz” slightly when powered
by the Power Inverter.
Baery Operang Time
When using the Inverter, operang me will vary de-
pending on the charge level of the baery, its capacity
and the power level drawn by the parcular AC load.
When using a vehicle baery as a power source, it is
strongly recommended to start the vehicle every hour or
two to recharge the baery before its capacity drops too
low. The Power Inverter can operate while the engine is
running, but the normal voltage drop that occurs during
starng may trigger the Power Inverter's low voltage
shutdown feature.
Because the Power Inverter draws less than 0.15 amps
with the ON/OFF switch in the ON posion and with no
AC products connected, it has minimal impact on baery
operang mes.

3 Charging the Portable Outlet
■Plug the Power Inverter DC Plug into a vehicle's
cigaree lighter or 12-volt outlet.
■Make sure the Portable Outlet power switch is in the
OFF posion.
■Plug the round end of the Portable Outlet 110 Volt
power supply into the “DC Input” opening in the middle
of the baery.
■Plug the power supply into the Power Inverter.
WARNING: Only use the power supply provided with
your Portable Outlet to charge your Portable Outlet.
The Power Inverter can also power a wide variety of
household AC products, such as laptop computers,
mobile phone charges, and even some brands of CPAP.
5 WARNING & CAUTION
Incorrect installaon or misuse of the Power Inverter
may result in danger to the user or create a hazardous
environment. We urge you to pay special aenon to all
CAUTION and WARNING statements. These may result in
damage to the Power inverter or to other equipment, or
may result in personal injury or loss of life.
WARNING! Shock hazard. Keep from children.
■ The Power Inverter generates the same potenally
lethal AC power as a normal household wall outlet. Treat
it with the same respect that you would any AC Outlet.
■Do not insert foreign objects into the Power inverter's
AC outlet or vent openings.
■Do not expose Inverter to water, rain, snow or spray.
■Do not, under any circumstances, connect the Power
Inverter to power ulity AC distribuon wiring.
Failure to follow the above instrucons may result in
personal injury or damage to the Power Inverter.
WARNING! Heated surface.
■The Power Inverter's housing may become uncomfort-
ably warm, reaching 140°F (60°C) under extended high
power operaon.
■Ensure at least 2 inches(5 cm) of air space is main-
tained on all sides of the Power Inverter.
During operaon, keep away from materials that may be
aected by high temperatures.
CAUTION!
■Do not connect any AC product to the Power Inverter,
whose neutral conductor is connected to ground.
■Do not expose the Power Inverter to temperatures in
excess of 104°F(40°C)
■In the event of an overload, low baery voltage or
overheang, the Inverter will automacally shut down.
6 Trouble Shoong
AC product will not operate, no inverter lights are on.
Possible Cause: Poor contact with lighter.
Suggeson: Press plug rmly into socket, or clean plug.
Possible Cause: 12-volt outlet may require ignion.
Suggeson: Turn key to accessory posion.
Possible Cause: Lighter or 12-volt outlet fuse is blown.
Suggeson: Check vehicle fuses and replace blown fuse.
