Renogy introduces 12v DC to DC onboard chargers

https://www.renogy.com/renogy-12v-dc...ttery-charger/

Advertised as 'first of their kind in US'

From a quick glance, they appear to be an answer to "can I sufficiently recharge my batteries while driving?"

20A and 40A versions; $129 & $199, respectively.


(I do not work for this vendor or make any implied endorsement...just passing on info)

Doubt it's made here in the US as the instruction manual is clearly "Metric" indicating a foreign source. Most likely UK or Australia which has been marketing similar items for a couple years now. Redarc is one of those that's been available for a while but more expensive. Their BDC1225D uses an MPPT solar controller and can manage both vehicle charge source as well as solar panels.
