* Only use “inverter type” generators. These generators will provide “clean” sine wave power that make them safe for use with sensitive equipment such as computers, laptops and the {{L1}}. Generators of the type commonly used in construction should be avoided.

* If performing with the {{L1}} at a gig where an unfamiliar generator is being used, it is advisable to bring a multimeter and monitor the output voltage of the generator. If the reading is above 140 V or below 100 V, then the Bose system may not work reliably.
