Charging an Bluetti AC200P in an RV Trailer while driving. Thinking about adding a Renogy DC-DC1212-20 amp battery charger to a Dodge Durango SUV to increase the charge rate to a Jayco 26RBM 26’ travel trailer house batteries while driving . Thinking about leaving AC200P in the trailer for a cross-country road trip and back feeding 120 volts into an RV outlet to power line voltage needs at rest stops and boondocking. Looking for suggestions on how to charge the AC200P with 12 volts DC while driving? Options could be: 1. Wire directly to the RV 12 volt entry box by the batteries. 2. Wire to the RV’s WFCO Ultra II RV Power Center, 3. Keep in the SUV while driving and move it a lot. Experience and suggestions would be welcome. Thanks, Bobsails 123

I just pondered this as well. You can use the PV input and select "12V" (instead of the 35-150V of the solar array). However this will limit you to only 100W of charging. Another option might be (I havent tried this yet.) Direct wire in a a Bestek 500W pure sine wave inverter ($65) and use your AC 400W power brick that came with it. *Maybe use the 12V PV input as well for an additional 100W.

I just tried this and it was successful. The 500w Bestek PSW, powered the stock power brick for my AC200.

I came to the same conclusion that you did, I went for a 2000 watt inverter, great reminder to charge the AC2000 with both AC and DC, I forgot about that feature, thank you for the suggestions
