The Extra LiFe 20 supplemental battery module contains a 20Amp-hour Lithium Iron Phosphate battery and is designed for use with the Meon LiFe and Meon LiFe Smart cart power systems.
The Extra LiFe 40 supplemental battery module contains a 40Amp-hour Lithium Iron Phosphate battery and is designed for use with the Meon LiFe and Meon LiFe Smart cart power systems.
The RM displays voltage and current draw and acts as a remote ON/OFF switch. The RM also includes a low battery indicator.
4-Pin XLR Cables
A variety of 4-pin XLR DC power cables for use with the Meon line of power products.
It is possible to have unwanted audible noise through a common (shared) power source typically due to “ground loops” from the various internal power supplies of the devices being powered. If noise is heard, unplug one device at a time from the MEON noticing any change in noise associated with the removal of each device. If the noise goes away after unplugging a particular device, try powering that device with a separate battery. If using a separate battery causes the noise to go away, then the problem is a ground loop associated with the combination of a common power source and audio grounding schemes. Be aware that this noise will not be removed with “LC” filters found in some cart power supplies. To remove the noise, here are four options for interrupting the ground loop:
No. The MEON LiFe Smart was designed to employ convective cooling specifically because cooling fans cannot be tolerated on a very quiet sound stage. This is why a new 400W AC-DC PSU was selected to be able to achieve the rated 18A 250W continuous output without any active cooling. It is best to mount the MEON LiFe Smart with some free space above the chassis to allow proper convective airflow when using AC power. The unit has vent slots in the sides of the chassis that should remain unrestricted during operation to facilitate cooling while supplying maximum rated current.
