"Hi,

To charge the battery in the Powerstation jumpstarter, according to the User Guide (http://powerstationusa.com/manuals/PS110...), this is the type of extension cord you need. It will connect the Powerstation to any 120V AC power outlet http://www.amazon.com/HQRP-Extension-Pow..."

"Is the center tap negative or positive on the charger for the PEAK 700?

Their manual lacks detail for the charging apparatus…. it could be 24 volts ac, it could be 12 volts dc center tap negative, it could be 15 volts center tap positive… It could be anything!

I expect to see a polarity, voltage, and current rating however we see none. Also we do not know what the circuitry is inside this. Can’t make assumptions there. Most likely they have a buffer to control impedance and some circuitry for usb etc etc... You don’t know the design or whats going on internally to the device. Can you specify with 100% certainty? No, you can’t. Not without details.

To determine a compatible charging unit, you will need the following information:

1) specified center tap polarity ( positive or negative).

2) voltage ( ie 12 volts 24 volts etc etc)

3) specified current ( i.e. 400 mA)

5) the size of the plug (i.e 2.1 mm)

A part number would be great!

Just guessing on the polarity is a roll of the dice. Don’t gamble. Get the facts! It may have preventive circuitry to avoid damaging the unit if you use the wrong polarity but you don’t know . Until you find the mfg specs it’s risky to just plug it in. You might wreck it. Is that an acceptable risk? No it isn’t, not for me .

I have an email into the distributor and will update based on their feedback/findings.

"Odd that nobody asked about polarity earier. You have to know this.

Postive Tip or Negative Tip? Most are positive tip but there is the chance it is negative.

I got this unit for 5 bucks so I am gonna try to charge the battery once I take it out and and or replace it. Then post what I find."

"I bought a vector portable power supply has compressor lots of other things also I bought it thinking it was battery charger for 12v car battery it has the adapter for ac/DC so to charge my 12v would I just need a extension cord rated for this and be good to go

Update (04/11/2021)

Guess I don't need a cord bc I already have the adapter but I can't figure out is how do I charge the battery then bc I got the adapter and cables built in wat do I do hook those up bc when I do it's just a beeping sound and does nothing else says 13 .8 volts which is wat I need to charge but how do I know it is charging the beeping never stops box says compatible but on line and owner manual says nothing about how to do this spent 130 some dollars hate to take a hammer to it and set it fire bc I am out that much and doesn't do wat I bought it for"
