If it is below freezing, simply allow the Kodiak X2 to warm up for an hour or two before charging. Similarly, charging the Kodiak X2 when it’s too hot (above 104°F) can also degrade and damage the battery. - Page 9 Safety Tips The Kodiak X2 is designed for use with and rated for Inergy-brand solar panels, but you can use third-party solar panels if you have them. In general, you should not mix different types and ratings of panels; always use identical panels in a string. As a hard rule, any string of solar panels must not exceed the open circuit voltage (VOC) rating of the Kodiak X2 (see Tech Specs).
- Page 10 Another wiring method is series-parallel, which involves a single series string of multiple iden- tical parallel strings. Because the Kodiak X2 has a 24V internal battery, parallel solar panel wiring configurations with 12V solar panels will charge the battery, but may be slower and underperform.
- Page 11 (see Contact Us). You will know the Kodiak X2 is charging from your solar panels when the LCD screen indicates both a charge input on the LEFT side of the LCD and an estimated charge time appears. The battery icon in the lower left side of the screen will blink, and the dial in the center of the screen will blink as well to indicate charging.
- Page 12 The Kodiak X2 employs a rapid cell balancing system to address the issue while it charges, but this process can take several hours. You may see the SoC remain at ~99% for extended periods until balancing finishes.

To maximize your run time, connect your Kodiak X2 to a charge source while using it. You can charge your Kodiak X2 and run your gear at the same time as long as the Dualink Par- allel Switch is in Solo Mode. - Page 14 Using the Kodiak X2 in Dualink Parallel Mode The Kodiak X2 can be paralleled with another Kodiak X2 to provide double the battery capacity and double the AC output. To use Dualink Parallel Mode, follow the step below to ensure safe operation.
- Page 15 If you plan to use the Kodiak X2 in below freezing conditions, you may need to protect it from the cold. Do not use the Kodiak X2 outside of the specified temperature ranges (see Tech Specs).
- Page 16 The safe storage and operating temperatures of the Kodiak X2 are found in Tech Specs. If a Kodiak X2 is exposed to extremely high temperatures, or it hisses, bulges, or pops, immediately move it away from flammable materials and place it on a non-combustible surface for at least 48 hours, and call us immediately.

Page 18: Warranty Information
Inergy’s warranty does not apply to any battery cell or product containing a battery cell unless the battery cell is fully charged by you at least once every six months. The Kodiak X2 records critical system event data. This data can be used to determine if a battery has been im- properly used, including but not limited to improper charging/discharging, short-circuits, water damage, and extreme temperature exposure. -
