how do you charge the battery? do you have a schematic for this setup?
Nice little go box. I building one similar to yours. Im putting in a Xiegu g90, down inverter cause I’m using 20 volt Dewalt battery packs. In-line volt meter, USB port. Computer cooling fan. Cigarette plug. Switches , trying to keep it as light weight as possible.
