Can the Go-Battery Be Used as a Backup Power Supply?Updated 6 months ago

The Go-Battery is designed as a portable power source rather than a true uninterruptible power supply (UPS). It is not intended for pass-through operation, meaning it cannot be charged while simultaneously powering a CPAP device. To ensure proper functionality, always fully charge the battery and then disconnect it from the charger before connecting it to your CPAP.

For scenarios that require backup power during outages, you must manually switch to battery power. This approach protects both the battery and your CPAP device from the risks associated with continuous dual-mode operation. For uninterrupted therapy during extended outages, consider maintaining a second battery as a backup source.
