Hello

I bought a used ABR800 and a vagabond II kit is around 2 years old.

but I have a problem with it, after I charged the battery fully and connect ABR800 to vagabond II and set ABR800 to turn on (the red on button), nothing happens until after 2-5 minutes, then comes the first light on the red button and ringflashen is ready for use.
what is wrong with the equipment?

Most likely it is an issue in the battery of the Vagabond. Check the connections to the battery from the inverter to make sure they are tight and clean. Make sure the battery is not swollen, cracked or otherwise showing signs of failure.

If you plug the VII into mains power, then plug the ABR800 into the VII, do things improve? If so, then the issue is on the VII somewhere. If not, it could be in the light or VII. At this point, you would need access to 120VAC mains power. Once found, plug in the ABR800 to this and see how it acts. If it is fine, then the VII certainly has a fault. If not, then the ABR800 has a fault.
