If my dc outlet doesn't work can I use this mechanically?

No, but it comes with battery clamps to connect it directly to the battery.

Yes you can. We have included alligator clips that will attach directly to your cars battery for just this reason.

The kit comes with an adapter to hook-up directly to your car battery. I've used this to help someone whose DC outlets didn't work. While you can't manually crank the electric jack up, there is a tool included to manually crank the jack down in case you blow all four fuses included in the kit. Have had my kit awhile now and have helped several strangers with flats and have never had a problem. This kit is awesome!

As in you want to use this with direct current? You could use adapters for your application, remember to have some sort of breaker in line so you dont destroy anything

Sounds like you might have a dud...if your outlet is on. Bad power supply or something in the charging process...

Mine is connected to my camera and 12 volt battery and all of the power and ac/dc cables are plugged in but it won't work.

Not sure what's going on, but check the instruction booklet for error problems and how to fix. Try unplugging both sides and plugging back in, including the outlet. Good luck

Make sure the power supply you are trying to use is the proper voltage and DC output.

Just wanted you to know that the wiring on this thing is backward, at least as far as the DC part is concerned. I don't use the AC part. In other words, it only works when you hook your DC input (battery) to the output side, and your output to the side marked "battery." The printed instructions that came with this item is wrong. If you hook it up according to the manual, it will not work.

12v DC Commonly found on most Internet Routers will work, it is what im using on mine

No it should not you may have bigger problems check to see if you have power or your surge protector is tripped

Have a look at the back of your power brick (you may need magnifier, I do), it will have an output value saying ___ VDC. If that is 12 or 19 then you should be good to go.

Buy a dc to ac converter ( for the car outlet) and let us all know how it worked.

I just plug it in houshold outlet, I have no problem, it works great, You have double check rating on the product

If the power cord connections are all tight, and the outlet it's plugged into works, it should turn on. Possibly you got a defective one.

I never got it to work... Maybe my bad door I ended up replacing. It powers off the garage door connections and I would assume dc.

Verify that the outlet it's plugged into is good would be the first thing to check. Mine has worked all the time with no trouble but if the outlet is good and working then look on the unit for a fuse maybe but not sure what else to check unless you take it to an electrical technician.

Probably not. It sounds like it may be defective and needs to be returned (hopefully this is still an option). Before you do so, try plugging it in to another outlet, just to be sure!
