Why do I have to hold down the Start button for a couple of seconds when using large incandescent bulb or motor loads?
The large starting (surge) currents that these loads draw when powered up can cause the battery pack to drop below the cutoff voltage. The Auto-Cutoff Module (ACM) senses this and turns off when you release the Start button. If you hold down the Start button until the bulbs are at full brightness or the motors are up to speed, the battery pack’s voltage will rise back up and the ACM will stay on when you release the button. If this doesn’t work, and you’re the battery pack isn’t already discharged, you’ll need to reduce the load or add inrush current limiters.
