Power Management Tips
During a power outage, maximizing PowerSource 400 run time is essential to

Battery Replacement
The battery pack in this product consists of two 20 amp-hour batteries. When
they come to the end of their useful service life they may be replaced with
equivalent sealed lead acid batteries by a qualified battery technician. Suitable
replacement batteries are Panasonic #LC-X1220P and EnerSys #NPX-80.
Information on other replacement battery brands and dealers is in the battery
replacement guide in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section of the
Xantrex Support site at www.xantrex.com/support.
Recycling
PowerSource 400 is designed to provide years of service. However, when the
internal batteries reach the end of their service life, and if you choose not to have
a qualified technician replace them, the PowerSource 400 itself is no longer of
use. The internal batteries may be replaced following the instructions in “Battery
Replacement” above.
Because the internal batteries contain lead, which can be hazardous if exposed to
the environment, the batteries and the PowerSource 400 should be recycled or
safely disposed of at your local recycling depot. Do not dispose of the batteries
and the PowerSource 400 with common household waste. Please ask your local
authorities about recycling services that are available in your area.
