Question: How long can the Sherpa 50 hold its charge?
Answer: It can hold its charge for several months. However, to keep the battery healthy and ready to go, we recommend that you leave your Sherpa 50 plugged in between uses. If this is not possible, charge it every 3-4 months

Answer: Lithium-ion NMC. It has these advantages: stores more energy; smaller and lighter watt for watt; and retains its charge even after months of storage
Question: Can I chain multiple Sherpas together?

Question: Why did the Sherpa 50 turn off automatically?
Answer: The Sherpa 50 has a built-in feature that turns the unit off after a period of inactivity. This saves power. To override this mode and keep it in “always on” mode, simply hold down the power button for about 10 seconds. A small “ON” icon will appear in the upper left side of the LCD battery monitor if you are in “always on” mode. In this case, it will only turn off if it runs out of power or you turn it off
