Halo Universal 12V Battery Pack — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Halo Universal 12V Battery Pack?
The Halo Universal 12V Battery Pack is a standalone 5 Ah rechargeable lithium-ion battery designed for portable power applications, especially for the Halo Prime series pellet grills.
What are its key specifications?
The battery outputs 12 volts nominal and has a capacity of 5 ampere-hours (5 Ah). It is built to deliver between **15 to 20 hours** of operation under typical grill loads.
How do I charge and use this battery pack?
You charge it using a compatible charging dock (sold separately) or within the Prime series pellet grill (if that model supports internal charging). Always use the correct charger and avoid overcharging or deep discharging to preserve battery life.
How should I care for and maintain the battery?
Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Charge it periodically if unused (to prevent it from falling into deep discharge). Avoid exposing it to extreme heat or moisture. Clean the contacts if they get dirty to maintain good electrical connection.
What are common cautions or limitations?
The actual runtime depends heavily on load — high current draws will reduce how long it lasts. Also, it’s designed for use with the Halo Prime series and similar 12 V systems — mismatched voltage or overcurrent use can damage the battery. Avoid subjecting it to thermal shock or physical abuse.
