    This could help folks when their power station battery dies. Most of the power stations don't give the ability to replace the battery but this allows one to keep using the other components of the power station. I have Licciti battery box with BYOB (Bring Your Own Battery) but I will definitely be looking at doubling my capacity now. Great info sir.

    I honestly did not know that I can do that to my River Max. Thanks to your video I cam expand the capacity even more than before.

    Try to use the solar cable and you could get more power to the Ecoflow. It should charge with more than 8 Amps.

    • @rodneyhunt
      @rodneyhunt  Рік тому

      Yes you can do 12 amps with the solar input. I just have not made a cable yet. Wanted to show it with off the shelf products you can easily purchase. Thanks

    get a 240w converter and attach the battery to it and the other end to the ecoflow, I have a converter on my battery and it inputs 192 watts to my ecoflow river 2 max

      I like the small victron. But depending on solar panel size/amount. signaturesolar.com/victron-bluesolar-mppt-75-15-solar-charge-controller/?ref=rodneyhunt

    • @rodneyhunt

      They have bigger units if you want to charge faster but that one should charge a small battery back with no problems.

    if you use the 12v car lighter port on the echoflow, can you recharge that car battery?

      Not sure if that will work. May just need to use a standard charger.

    Is there any way the power station is charging the auxiliary battery once it is fully charged?

    • @rodneyhunt

      Just with a standard charger from a plug but nothing automatic

      It can. Best to charge with solar if you have it. A generator or car will work also. Lots of options.
