QuestionIs it possible to connect it with an 250 watt solar panel?
Asked 3 years ago by SgtWilliams.
- Answer Yes, you can connect a higher wattage panel by connecting a solar charge controller (set to 14.6V) to the terminal posts, and connect the panel to the controller. If you have external batteries connected, please connect the controller to the final battery in the chain.

QuestionCan I buy extra batteries for this unit
Asked 3 years ago by Zip.
- Answer Yes, you need a 12v 55Ah SLA battery with M6 Insert, C, Insert Terminal to replace the internal battery. If you want to extend your run time, you daisy chain additional 12v batteries using the terminal posts on the back of the unit. We recommend a 12v 100Ah SLA battery with AGM technology. This will nearly triple your run time.

QuestionI just bought three mini Keurigs. Can I plug in all three and use with no issue? Thank you in advance
Asked 3 years ago by Keurig.
- Answer The mini Keurig uses 1425 watts. The PowerSource can not support any item that has a heating element like coffee makers, space heaters, rice cookers etc. The PowerSource does not have enough energy to power the mini Keurig for one complete cycle, as the energy will be depleted in less than 5 minutes.
