protection. If the power rating of 150 Watts is exceeded,
the power inverter will automatically shut down. Once

inverter should automatically reset.To turn on the power outlet, simply plug in the device.
The outlet automatically turns off when the device is
unplugged.
NOTE:Due to built-in overload protection, the power
inverter will shut down if the power rating is exceeded.
