Labeling Requirements:

1. Input voltage and current for each input port.

2. Output voltage and current for each output port, and the total parameters when all output ports are used simultaneously (if different from the sum of individual output port parameters).

3. Rated output capacity; if the output capacity differs for each port, the specific capacity for each port should be labeled.

4. Manufacturer's name, trademark, or other identification code.

5. Model name or other identifying name.

6. Manufacturing date or code.

7. The following or similar warning: "CAUTION: Risk of Fire and Burns. Do Not Open, Crush, Heat Above (manufacturer’s specified maximum temperature) or Incinerate. Follow Manufacturer’s Instructions."

8. For mobile power packs designed for use in luggage or backpacks, the label must specify "For use only with _____".
