There's a YouTube channel that explained that Solar Panels are only "supplemental power", and I 1000% agree!! I've tried to keep my power stations topped off with a permanently mounted solar panel and a 12v outlet but, on many trips, I found myself UNDER POWERED and having to choose between charging my laptop or powering my fridge. With a DC to DC converter power upgrade, I'm recharging at 433 watts and worrying about having enough juice is a thing of the past.

I want to give a big shout out to the highly informative YouTube channel ​⁠@TinkerersAdventure for giving me the idea to run a DC to DC converter to "fast charge" my power stations.
here's the link to Kai's video:

He details a solution to "FAST CHARGE" a power station using a 20amp DC to DC converter. He gave me the idea, but like many of you out there, I didn't know where to start. I consulted with my friends John Patinlinghug, Braden Bartlett and Manny ​⁠@k20z3allmotorFTW and they pointed me in the right direction.

Here's a dumbed down installation overview to give your vehicle 433 watt fast charging capability!

Just to make sure you are aware, I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL, I AM JUST SHARING WHAT I KNOW. Do you research, consult with a Pro, wiring your vehicle's electrical system incorrectly can lead to an electrical fire. Be safe friends!
