Thanks for the response. Please tell me, what do you mean "not to PCs"? Do you mean they won't output 100W for laptop charging, but instead split up their "100W power delivery" among usb devices, etc., and leaving less for laptop charging? I appreciate the suggestion but that docking station...

I would like a docking station that supplies charging to my Asus Flow x13 laptop. The laptop has a 100W charging requirement and an Asus representative said only docking stations that supply 100W for charging are acceptable. My confusion is that some docking stations list "100W power delivery"...

Another issue I am having is many circuit breaker products' posts to connect wire ring terminals don't offer enough room (post and surrounding plastic or other material) to fit the terminal (e.g., [1]). What product can extend the posts' connection points to plug a wire terminal into? I am...

Thanks @jay32267, I made sure to get a DC circuit breaker for 200 amps that with about 80% efficiency matches coverage for 1800W/12V=150A. I also got a solid plastic (UHMW) block to store the breaker on to avoid any surface with electrical or thermal risk.

Well, I found out I was wrong about this. I was told "You calculated 120v from the output (the inverter), not the external battery, and you need to calculate it based on the battery voltage, which is 12, not 120. 1800(w)/12(v)=150 amps." Therefore, because of 80% efficiency with a circuit...

Thanks! I ended up doing some more reading about circuit breakers and got one that is 20 Amps. I read it can handle 80% of max amperage listed before I assume it trips [1]. Since the generator I have has a peak of 1800W and a continuous load of 1440W then 1800 (W)/120 (V)=15 (A). The circuit...

I have a Duracell PowerSource 660 all-electric generator that supports daisy-chaining batteries to it. I am going to connect a 12V 55Ah SLA battery (like a car battery) to it and I read adding a single circuit breaker to the connection between the generator and external battery could help with...
