Q. How much running time can I expect with a fully charged battery?
A. The time available is directly proportional to the type of load plugged into the Far Outlet. A
constant load such as a light bulb will exhaust the battery much sooner than audio playing from a
small PA system. Consult the included chart for approximate running times.
Q. How long does it take to recharge the battery? May I leave it plugged in?
A. The internal battery may be recharged from an exhausted condition to fully charged in 6
hours. You may leave the charger cord plugged in indefinitely because once the charging circuit
detects a full charge it goes into a “Hold” mode to keep the battery topped off.
Q. Can I use the Far Outlet as an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)?
A. Although the Far Outlet 300 S was not designed to be a UPS it will function as one for
equipment with an average usage under 60 watts. This allows the internal charger to “keep up” with
the drain on the battery. Loads over the average 60 watts will eventually exhaust the internal battery.
Q. What devices may be powered by the Far Outlet?
A. Just about anything that draws less than 250 watts continuous such as Audio and Video
Equipment, Photo and Studio Gear, Computers, and various Lights and Small Power Tools.
Q. What devices should not be powered by the Far Outlet?
A. The Far Outlet should not be used to power anything upon which personal safety depends
(Safety, Lifesaving, or Resuscitation Equipment). It is also not well suited for use with devices that
draw large amounts of continuous current such as High Wattage Incandescent Lights, Heavy Power
Tools, or anything that runs on a large AC Motor.
