  If the Xantrex Battery Charger shows no output voltage and the status LED is red, possible causes include AC shore power issues, low or high input voltage, unit overload, short circuit, or thermal shutdown. Check DC connections and cables, recharge the battery, verify the unit is connected to a 12V battery, check the voltage regulation of the external charging system, reduce the load, allow the unit to cool, improve ventilation, and ensure ventilation openings are not blocked.

What to do if my Xantrex Freedom hf 1800 has no output voltage but the status LED is green or yellow?
- B

  If your Xantrex Battery Charger has no output voltage and the status LED is green or yellow, it could be due to a tripped GFCI or supplementary breaker, a tripped circuit breaker on the AC load panel, an AC output disconnect, or low battery voltage (less than 10.5 Vdc). Check the load and reset the GFCI or supplementary breaker. Reset the circuit breaker or check the AC output disconnect circuits. Also, check DC connections and cable and recharge the battery.

  Miss Carrie Smith DDSAug 16, 2025
  To improve television reception when using a Xantrex Battery Charger, ensure the chassis ground stud is solidly connected to the vehicle or vessel's ground system. Verify the television antenna provides a strong signal and use good quality cables. Keep the cables between the battery and the charger as short as possible, twisting them together. Move the television as far from the charger as possible and avoid operating high-power loads while the television is on.

Why is the battery charging current lower than expected on my Xantrex Freedom hf 1800 Battery Charger?
- A
  Adam BarnesAug 21, 2025
  If the battery charging current is lower than the charging set point during bulk charge mode on your Xantrex Battery Charger, it may be due to a high ambient temperature. This is normal operation; the charging current automatically decreases at high temperatures. To improve this, ensure proper ventilation and that the unit's ventilation openings are not blocked.

Why is the output voltage low on my Xantrex Freedom hf 1800 during inverter mode?
- P
  Peter HayesAug 31, 2025
  If you observe a low output voltage (96 Vac–104 Vac) during inverter mode on your Xantrex Battery Charger, it might be because your voltmeter cannot accurately read the RMS voltage of a modified sine wave. Use a true RMS reading voltmeter such as the Fluke 87.
