QuestionI have a hard wire running through my firewall. Can I connect to the clamps,? And what are the knobs on the side for?
Asked 5 years ago by Hefe.
- Answer Hello Hefe, If the wires are safely connected to the battery, it should work just fine. The "knobs" are the positive and negative input connection port for the cigar outlet connection. Thank you for submitting your questions!

QuestionCan i charge a car battery? And would it be possible to run tv and a Xbox one at the same time (Not while charging car battery)
Asked 5 years ago by Tuna.
- Answer Hello Tuna, This device will not charge a car battery. Running off the cigar outlet, the unit can provide 150 watts of continuous power. Running off of the car battery can provide 400 watts of continuous power. The unit can safely power equipment as long as it does not exceed those 2 limits. Thank you for submitting your question!

QuestionCould this unit power 3 guitar amplifiers (15watt, 30watt, 30watt) at the same time for 2 hours if plugged into a free standing car battery?
Asked 5 years ago by JC.
- Answer Hello JC, The unit will be able to power the equipment without issue but run time on a battery is not something we can determine. The variables would be dependent on the battery being used and that is not tested by CyberPower. Thank you for submitting your question!

QuestionHow much backup power does it hold?? As in how many hours of use age can you get without it hooked up? Or does it have to be hooked to your car battery the whole time you use it? If it does, will it kill my Jeep if it’s not running?? Thank you
Asked 5 years ago by BackupPower.
- Answer The CPS480TG2UB is a power inverter, not a back up device so it would not be able to provide power without being hooked up to a battery. It does use battery power so if the alternator is not charging the battery, the battery can become depleted. Thank you for submitting your questions!
