I have this item,but last night I was running two things that are high voltage (window a/c & a pannini grill maker).it stop working did I overload?

Mine went out also and would not reset. The product must be defective. You can return it if it's still within the warranty period. I purchased a different brand and haven't had a problem.

I'm sorry, you probably did. An a/c sounds like overkill for such a small unit (I'm pretty sure such appliances need their own exclusive protected socketed, at least that's how we do it in Jamaica).

I would guess yes, it was overloaded. I have 4 items plugged in and have mot had any issues...phone, alarm clock, lamp, etc

Check the a/c unit, when the cables get bent or crimped, items tend not to turn on or off. If you can, flex the cable while plugged in, find the 'sweet spot' and tape a Popsicle stick to the cable (or anything else that keeps it in the correct position to work. IF the pwer supply is dead, read the back and see what amp/volts it has and use a substitute that matches. Worst case scenario search on amazon for a new charger. If there are none, let me know what the volts/amps are and I will list the one I removed from my printer and list it, if I still have it. I have 2 medium sized tubs of just power supplies from stuff that died. : )

I am not real knoledgable on it and the only thing is to make sure the wires off the panel are correct posative and negative and as I am thinking try putting a meter on it to see if panels are puting out power then check conrctions doen to the battery to see where the problem might be. Hopefully this is some help.

Mine too. There is an electrical connection behind the control panel that overheats and starts to burn the wire insulation when the heater is on high. It is connected to the pendulum switch that would power-off the unit if it tipped over. I contacted Kaz (the actual mfgr) but they weren't interested in fixing or replacing the heater.

I did, but I'm not sure I should have. Nothing bad happened to the outlets, but it didn't seem to register a response. As I recall, the instructions said it was for GFCI outlets only - of course, I read it AFTER I used it in non-GFCI outlets. I hope this helps you.

Funny you posted this question. I just had about 8 power outages in one day. The wine cooler came back on without a problem after each one.

I don't know if this if this is your problem, but electric space heaters often draw more than 8 amps which is beyond the rating of this device. Also, I don't know what happens if you exceed the rating but if you plugged in the heater first it's possible that fried the unit.

Make sure you do not have it inserted in the neutral prong of the receptacle or it will not show voltage. You should always test it on something you know is hot first to make sure It is working before you rely on it

Had problem with the switch (it melted) but not sure if it was unit or our voltage irregularities.

I am not familiar with that reading. My unit has worked like a charm. I would suggest that you go to the vendor's website. Maybe someone else has experienced something similar. Good luck!

Yes, that's exactly what happened to mine too. I had a 120v one which I was pretty sure may not be able to handle the equipement I had - the filter, pump and heater. I dismantled my broken one and looked at the back and saw that it had a similar voltage rating to this one and so i bought this ... installed it myslef and worked fine for the last few months now!

I would report that and exchange it for a new one. That can cause an electrical fire.

The only thing I can think of is incorrect wiring or you have it hooked up to something that is trying to draw more amperage than the unit can handle and it's tripping rather than switching anything on. Perhaps it's a protection circuit? Have you tried hooking it up to something that draws lower power? I had mine wired to a heating pad as a warming pad for a while to start seedlings. Then I wired it into a home made aquarium type heater. I don't get any 'alarms', my unit works perfectly every time. I'd have to see how you wired it and what it's wire to in order to help. Sorry.

Please (call manufacturer to be sure) mine melted/popped also depends on what system watts you may have but play it safe call the experts Robert....good luck!

That happened to mine once. Turned out that the GFI was tripped on that outlet. I reset the breaker and it has been working great ever since.

Check the polarity of the connections, also check the load,too much will blow the fuse. It's to protect the inverter.If all else fails call the manufacturer.

Check your circuit breaker. Also is it the only appliance plugged in at that outlet?
