7 Recharging xPower300
General Information on Batteries and Charging
Charging Options
A variety of charging options are possible with
xPower300:
Charging with the fully automatic plug-in-and-
forget AC Charger.
Charging from your vehicle as you drive.
Charging from a generator equipped with a 12-volt
battery charging outlet.
Charging from a solar panel.
Battery Self-Discharge and Shelf Life
All rechargeable batteries gradually discharge when left
standing. Periodic charging is necessary to maintain
maximum battery capacity. When the AC Charger is
connected via xPower300s Charger Input Socket, the
circuitry built into xPower300 will regulate the charging
process, ensuring the battery is always fully charged,
but never overcharged. To ensure safe recharging and
maximum battery life, charge only with Xantrex supplied
or approved products.
CAUTION: Due to inherent self-discharge, lead acid batteries
must be charged at least every 3 months, especially in a warm
environment. Leaving a battery in a discharged state, or not
recharging every 3 months, risks permanent damage.
Battery Replacement
xPower300 uses a state-of-the-art internal battery that
will serve as a reliable power source for years when
properly maintained.
Should replacement ever be needed, we recommend this
be performed by those experienced in the installation of
high amperage, high energy batteries. For full details,
including information on approved replacement battery
models, contact Xantrex Customer Service. See front of
Owners Guide for contact information .
