Operating AC Appliances
Understanding AC Appliances
AC appliances are rated by how much electrical power (in
watts) they consume. XPower Powerpack can power most
appliances within its continuous power rating (320 W, 2.7 A).
Some appliances may be difficult or impossible to operate
from the XPower Powerpack. They may have high surge
requirements or should not be run from the XPower
Powerpack. See “High Surge Appliances” on page 3–6 and
“Trouble Appliances” on page 3–6.
Run Time on Typical AC Appliances
Typical AC appliances that can be used on the XPower
Powerpack are listed in Table 3-1.
Note: The fewer watts an AC appliance uses, the longer the
XPower Powerpack will operate before recharging is
required.
