> Charging your Zendure A-series

Connect one end of the charging cable to a powered USB port.
Examples of powered USB ports include those found on a computer, a
plug-in wall charger, or a solar charger. We recommend using a 5V/2A
(10W) charger such an iPad wall charger for maximum charging speed.
Please do not charge the Zendure with a single output over 5V/3A.

Connect the other end of the cable to the Micro USB input port on your
Zendure. If the power source is active, your Zendure should begin
charging immediately. Your Zendure may remain connected to the
power source indefinitely; there is no risk of overcharging it.

Charge status will be displayed by the status lights on your Zendure.
Please refer to the table on page 3.

> Using your Zendure A-series to charge other devices

Connect one end of the included USB cable or other USB cable to the
USB output port on your Zendure. Connect the other end of a USB
charging cable to the charging port on your compatible device, using an
appropriate adaptor if necessary.

Your Zendure will automatically begin charging most devices when
connected if the current drawn is over 80mA. If charging doesn’t start
on its own, press the power button briefly to begin charging.

Specifications

Instructions

While your Zendure is charging your device, the status lights on your
Zendure will indicate the remaining charge. Please refer to the table
below.

> Checking your Zendure’s remaining charge

If your Zendure’s status lights are not already lit, press the power button
briefly. If the lights still do not turn on, your Zendure has no charge
remaining. The status lights on your Zendure will indicate your A4’s
remaining charge. Please refer to the table below.

Important Information Before Use

> Durability

Although the Zendure A-series battery is designed to be extremely durable, and it can be run
over by a car in our tests, please do not attempt to stage your own durability trials.

> Energy Efficiency and Charging Capability

For most batteries on the market, energy loss during charging reduces the effective capacity
by up to 30% of the total power. That means their total energy conversion rate (TECR) is
only 70%. Zendure A-Series batteries have an amazing 80% TECR.

To approximate how many times a Zendure battery can charge your device, multiply the
battery's capacity by 0.8, and then divide it by the capacity of your device. (This formula
assumes that the device's nominal voltage is about 3.7V, is charged via the 1A output port in
a 25°C temperature, and is powered off and not in use when being charged. Actual results
may vary slightly depending on whether the device is in use, output used, temperature, how
much heat the device's battery generates, the condition of the device, etc)

> Charge-through Function

In charge-through mode, the total maximum input is 2A. Depending on the output current
that's been drawn, Zendure will be charged at what's left. For instance, if the output is 0.5A,
Zendure will be charged at 1.5A; if the output is 1A, Zendure will be charged at 1A; if the
output is 1.5A, Zendure will be charged at 0.5A; but if the total output exceeds 1.5A, Zendure
will not be charged until the other devices stop asking for additional power.

> Auto Charge-check Timer and Long-term Standby

Zendure A-series is the world’s first external battery with a built-in auto timer that checks if it
needs to charge the connected device every 60 minutes, a great solution for long-term GPS
use, time-lapse photography or many other situations. However, this consumes some extra
energy if there’s a USB connection, so please remember to unplug all USB cables for
long-term standby. Please charge the external battery at least once every 6 months.

> Dual USB Output

If you want to charge two devices at the same time, please use the black port to charge your
iPad or tablets and the blue port to charge your smartphones, otherwise it might trigger the
multi-protection system because the total current drawn is over 2.1A. The same applies
when you are using the charge-through function.

Troubleshooting

> Zendure does not charge when connected to a power source

Make sure that your Zendure is connected to a compatible powered USB port as outlined
in the “Charging your Zendure” section of this manual.

Check that the power source is activated. If connected to a computer, make sure the
computer is turned on. If connected to a wall charger, ensure that the power outlet is
active.

Your Zendure’s multi-protection system may have been engaged. Please refer to the
“Multi-protection system” section of this manual.

> Zendure does not charge other devices

Ensure that the device is a 5V powered device, and it draws over 80mA of current.

Zendure’s auto-charge capability may not be compatible with all devices. Press the power
button to activate your Zendure.

Ensure that your Zendure is charged. Please refer to the “Charging your Zendure” section
of this manual.

Your Zendure’s multi-protection system may have been engaged.

> Multi-protection system

To enhance product safety and reduce the risk of permanent damage, your Zendure is
equipped with a protection system that temporarily deactivates the device in a number of
circumstances, including product overheating, electrical overload, short circuits and
connection to an incompatible device. If your Zendure’s multi-protection system is
engaged, please follow these steps to reactivate it:

1. Disconnect all cables and devices from your Zendure.

2. If your Zendure is wet, dry it thoroughly with a cloth. If there is moisture in the USB
ports, allow the Zendure to dry thoroughly. Do not place fingers or a foreign object inside
your Zendure’s ports to expedite drying.

3. If your Zendure has been exposed to a temperature outside of its specified operating
range, return it to an environment suitable for operation, taking care to avoid moisture
condensation. Keep your Zendure in a suitable environment for at least one hour before
attempting to reset the device.

4. Press the power button to reactivate your Zendure. The status lights should turn on at
this time. If the status lights do not turn on, try to charge the Zendure with a wall charger.
