DIY 12V power bank! Easy charger option.
While looking for a good charger option for my classes and events, I came across the "plastic box" banks. They all looked really straight-forward so I gave it a try. Super easy to make, drill holes and it all screws and plugs together. lots of options for a battery. I'll keep ysll posted as I test thing out and see how she does. Fun build and well worth the sub $100price tag.

Great idea for an external charge port!
Looks simple enough, been looking into to DIYing one similar. Question, you got any charge input connectors on it? I wanna build one with solar input myself

Nice simple little project. My question is why build a big bulky power bank that is more expensive than a smaller more powerful one? I use the smaller Anker 20000 Mah for 40 bucks, that's roughly equal to 20 Ah. It's about the size of my cellphone. Just trying to figure out the benefit. Thanks

I wanted to. I've never had good luck with the little ones. I can run anything with a 12 volt plug on this one like the truck stop fans. As for big and bulky I could just charge it with the car.

In the future need not worry too much about the benefits of why I do things, I enjoy doing this stuff pure enjoyment plays a huge part in me doing the things I do. ❤
Any way to recharge the main battery or have to replace once the main battery dies?
