The treatment intensity will ramp down, any treatments that were running at the time will stop, and the device will
shut down. Before battery operation can continue, the battery must be recharged.
Battery Requirements
• 12 volt and at least 5 amps hours.
• Battery adaptor cord must match the plug end of the battery pack. The barrel plug end must match the 0.325” barrel
jack adaptor plug on the Solaris.
• The cord needs to be a minimum of 18 AWG gauge wire. 14-16 AWG gauge wire will work as well with a 5 amp fast
blow fuse.
Battery Life
The length of time that a unit can be used with a battery pack is dependent on several factors:
• The amperage of the battery pack. Larger amperage will provide longer use.
• The modality used. Light Therapy treatments require more power than Ultrasound or Stim modalities while
Ultrasound requires more power than Stim modalities.
• The intensity of the treatments. The higher the intensity, the higher the consumption of power.
• The use of multiple treatments. The more channels used, the more power is consumed.
• The amount of charge remaining on the battery.
As a general rule, the unit may be run continuously for 30 minutes to several hours depending on these factors.
Note: If using a smaller gauge wire (20 AWG and up) the BATT LOW error is possible when the battery is not low.
CAUTION
When a battery is employed to operate the Solaris Plus unit, do not use Ultrasound, Tri-Wave light pads/probes, or
the ThermoStim probe. These accessories will deplete the battery rapidly.
CAUTION
When disposing of a used battery, follow manufacture’s guidelines and comply with the laws and procedures required
in your area.
