  • Brak mocy wyjściowej:
    • Check main terminal connections to the load for tightness and correct polarity.
    • Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged. The BMS will disconnect output if the voltagZbyt niskie krople.
    • If using USB outputs, ensure the LED power switch is turned on.
    • The BMS may have activated a protection mode (e.g., over-discharge, over-current, short circuit). Disconnect the load, wait a few minutes, and try reconnecting.
  • Obniżona wydajność/pojemność:
    • Przed użyciem upewnij się, że akumulator jest w pełni naładowany.
    • Verify that the load's power demand does not consistently exceed the battery's continuous discharge rate.
