Connecting to an External Battery
You can extend battery operating times by connecting the
XPower Powerpack to a larger external battery.
For example, an external 60 Ah battery gives approximately
four times the operating time of the XPower Powerpack
internal 20 Ah battery.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Never allow jump-start cables’ red and black
clamps to touch each other or another common
metal conductor. This could cause damage to the
unit and/or create a sparking/explosion hazard.
Always disconnect the jump-start cables from the
unit after use and clip the plastic guard over the
jump-start cable port.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Jump-start cable clamps must be connected
positive to positive (red clamp to battery “+”) and
negative to negative (black clamp to battery “-”). A
reverse polarity connection (positive to negative)
may cause damage to the unit and/or create a
sparking/explosion hazard.
