Today is the first day that i test my theory at work.

I had 2 tests at home where it worked outside of the car.


In the trunk are 4 12V lead battery's. Those are reused ones from the alt delete from my SUV.
+/_ 4Kw of capacity. 12V 335Ah.

There is an pure sine wave inverter coupled to it. 2000W continue. I set the charger to 6A charging, 1385W.

Between the output of the inverter and the charger of the car is an analog switching clock.

It will charge 2 times 30 minutes.
So effective range will increase with 6km making the total to 56km.

I hope to have enough. Otherwise i increase it to 3 times 30 minutes.
