AC Adapter
An AC power adapter is required to connect to a wall outlet. Be sure only to use an adapter with the appropriate AC voltage rating to prevent component damage. DC 12V 2A switching power output adaptor is generally used to power the iota for standard version.
Rechargeable Battery
In addition to the adapter, there is a rechargeable battery inside the iota, which serves as a backup in case of a power failure. During normal operation, the AC power adapter is used to supply power to the iota and at the same time, recharge the battery.
Slide the Battery Switch to the ON position to activate and charge the battery. It takes approximately 72 hours to fully charge the battery.
