In this video I run anderson connector wiring 6 cables of 10 awg direct from car battery which is Lifepo4 Dakota Lithium to inside of cabin to charge Solar generator, laptops and more from the comfort of the cabin. In previous video I upgraded my battery to Dakota lithium, see video here https://youtu.be/Mms05lZEYkA and used the wiring methods of the the anderson connector type, see my video here about it: https://youtu.be/zZkIR48C4uE. In the end of the video I was able to charge my 1000wh Oupes solar generator via a 12v to 24v up converter at 180 watts. Basically proof of concept. Now I can leave things to charge off my car battery even when my car is off. However when the car is on, I can harness the power of the alternator to do even more. Overall this was a positive experience to get this wired in my car to be able to sue the power it produces with it's 150 amp alternator.
