Used as an Alternative Power Supply for Vehicles
Your Booster PAC is an essential tool for all who replace automobile batteries.
Most vehicles have electronic components with memory, such as alarm systems,
computers, radios, phones, etc. and when the vehicle’s battery is replaced, the
memory is lost. However, if the power extension cord is plugged from the Booster
PAC to the 12 Volt outlet on the vehicle, the memories can be saved.
Note:
To use the Booster PAC for this purpose, the chosen outlet must be live when
the vehicle is turned OFF. On some vehicles, 12 Volt outlets are deactivated when the
vehicle is turned OFF.
Used as a Multipurpose Power Supply
Your Booster PAC is also a portable power source for all 12 Vdc accessories equipped
with a male 12 Volt plug. The DC outlet on the Booster PAC has automatic overload
protection.
When your Booster PAC is used with a DC to AC power inverter, it can operate
appliances normally powered by 120 Vac or 220 Vac. Recommended inverter for the
portable power source is 300 watts maximum. For more information, contact your
nearest Booster PAC dealer.
