devices whenever you’re away from your home or campsite. Press the orange
lid latch button on the side of the battery charger to access the Input and
Output ports as shown below.

CHARGING THE BATTERYCHARGER FROM THE WALL CHARGER
CHARGING YOUR DEVICE FROM THE BATTERYCHARGER
STORING & TRANSPORTING THE BATTERYCHARGER
1. (Model PP2010 only) Press the front battery pod grip (A) in until it clicks,
then pull the battery pod (B) out of the bottom of the battery charger.
Insert the 4 supplied AA NiMh rechargeable batteries if they are not
already in place.
2. Press the lid latch button and pull open the top of the BatteryCharger.
3. Connect the USB cable to the micro-USB INPUT port from the USB port
on the supplied AC charger (see packing list), and plug it into a wall outlet
(100-240v).
4. Press the Power button at the center of the PowerSync Power Gauge (C).
All four LEDs on the Power Gauge (Fig. 1) will light up (for 10 min.) when
the BatteryCharger’s internal battery has been fully charged (you may
leave it connected to the charger overnight without risk of overcharging),
and you’re ready to connect and charge your device.
Press the power button at the center of the PowerSync Power Gauge (C)
to check the BatteryCharger’s charge status, then connect the supplied
USB cable from the OUTPUT port of the BatteryCharger to your device to
recharge it. If your device uses a non-standard type of connector, use the
cable that came with it to connect to the BatteryCharger’s OUTPUT port.
Check the charge indicator on your device to determine when it’s ready
to use. The NiMh AA batteries inside the PP2010 may also be removed and
used to power any device that operates on AA batteries (unless the use of
rechargeable batteries is not recommended).

UNDERSTANDING THE POWERSYNC POWER GAUGE
The 4 LED charge indicators behind the Power Gauge (C) allow you to monitor
the status of the BatteryCharger’s internal battery. While the battery is
charging from the AC wall charger, the LEDs will light up in sequence to show
the charge level as shown in Fig. 1. The LED indicating the current battery
level will blink rapidly while charging. When charging is complete, all LEDs
remain on for 10 min., then shut o until the Power button is pressed.
While the BatteryCharger is charging your connected device (Power button
must be pressed), the LEDs will monitor the BatteryCharger’s battery level as
shown in Fig. 2, with a single LED blinking once every 15 sec. (shows active
charging but conserves battery power).
You can also check the current level of the BatteryCharger’s battery charge
anytime by pressing the Power button, even when it is not connected to the
charger or an external device. The LEDs will glow steadily to indicate the
charge level % as shown in Fig.3. , then shut o after 10 seconds.
The Field Light will glow during charging. You can also press
the power button at any time to turn it on to help insert the
USB cable into the Output port when you’re charging at night.
