Here are some guidelines that will help to preserve your battery:
• Vehicle batteries are not designed for repeated deep-discharge
cycles, and constantly recharging a vehicle’s battery will shorten its
life. Therefore, when you are using a vehicle battery as a power
source, start the vehicle every hour or two to recharge the battery.
• The Digital Inverter will operate while the engine is running, but
the voltage drop that occurs when the engine starts may trigger a
low-voltage shutdown.
• Vehicle batteries are designed to provide brief periods of very high
current needed for engine starting. They are not intended for
constant deep discharge. Regularly operating the Digital Inverter
from a vehicle battery until the low-voltage alarm sounds will
shorten the life of the battery. Consider connecting the Digital
Inverter to a separate deep discharge-type battery if you will be
frequently running electrical products for extended periods of time.
• If you are not going to use the Digital Inverter for a few days, turn
off the unit. The inverter draws 0.4 A or less when the unit is on and
no load is connected, but it will eventually discharge the battery.
