To Paul C Buff support (and others who experienced this problem): I bought 4 Einstein 640´s, The Cybercommander and tons of other gear from you - and I am very happy with it. BUT last week my Vagabond Mini suddenly stopped working. The lights indicates a full charged battery but my neither of my Einsteins will power on. (I tried all four of them and they all work perfectly with a direct powercord-to-the-wall-socket connected to them) Here are my error-finding results so far: - Fuse seems allrigt (see picture) - It does not matter which connector I attach the cabel to on the inverter. It all ends up with no power on the Einstein. - I cannot charge my cellphone with a USB cabel connected to the inverter (even though that the "fuel gauge" says full power on the battery) - I cannot power the Einstein with the battery detached from the inverter and power cabel connected to the inverter and then connected to the Einstein. - I cannot power a cellphone with the battery detached from the inverter and power cabel connected to the inverter and then a USB connected to the cellphone. SO - I am running out of ideas and (to me) it seems that the inverter is broken but what do you say? What else can I try? I filmed the error finding proces, so please see these for documentation: Vagabond Mini not working 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAvjM2oW4jI Vagabond Mini not working 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0KEiGQtNM8 And a picture of the fuse: http://i65.tinypic.com/2lwsw2a.jpg Any problemsolving ideas are more than welcome! Best regards Jakob |

This is a symptom of something that will require the inverter to come in for service. I would contact our repair department for specific instructions on how to have this inverter repaired. |
