[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 650940, member: 3775"] With the right input power Lithium batteries are rocketships when it comes to charging, All of my SoGens came with under powered chargers except the Dometic PLB40's which is must be why they cost more than the others, The huge PowerOak / Bluetti AC200P comes with a 500w charger yet their 2400wh and the 1800wh and the 1500wh EB series came with 220w chargers yet all 3 can use the 500w charger and fully charge within 3 to 5 hours, At 75% SOC all 3 can be fully charged in under an Hour, Their smaller 500wh models come with a 90w charger and takes 6 to 7 hours to charge so I used the EB 180's 220w charger and got it charged in about 5 and a half hours but it won't charge any faster because the input is capped at 122w. The reason the Dometic PLB40 is expensive is because it has so many features that the other companies are only just starting to fit, Out of all my SoGens every time I go camping I always grab the PLB's because they done every thing right, And they have more 12v power output.
