Turn the vehicle off before any electrical work, and wear goggles and gloves. Connect the input cables to the charger first, then to the battery, with correct polarity. Mount the DC600 in a dry, ventilated spot in the cab or trunk near the power station, away from heat and flammable materials, and don't cover it. If a fault occurs, check the 60A fuse on the input cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePower Station Match\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour power station's input should accept 15V to 60V. The DC600 works with stations that have XT60, DC7909, Anderson or aviation inputs, and the manual connects it to the station's PV input with a matching MC4 charging conversion cable, which is not in the box. Set the output in the app or with the 300W\/30V button so it stays within your station's DC input range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThis May Be A Good Fit If\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou drive a 12V or 24V gasoline or hybrid vehicle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour power station has an XT60, DC7909, Anderson or aviation input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want to recharge while you drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou'd like app control of output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes It Work With Electric Vehicles?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It works with hybrids that have an alternator and starter battery, but not with EVs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Should I Start the Vehicle First?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarting the vehicle keeps the starter battery voltage up during high-power charging, so the vehicle can start afterward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Warranty Does It Have?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV lists an 18-month warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x DC600 Alternator Charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x DC Input Cable (16.4 ft, 6AWG, With 60A Fuse)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x XT60 to MC4 Output Cable (1.6 ft, 14AWG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 x M6 Hex Socket Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 x Install Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x M6 Hex Socket Wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x User Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCharging That Comes Along for the Ride\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BougeRV DC600 Alternator Charger gives your power station up to 600W of adjustable charging from a 12V or 24V vehicle, with app control and starter battery protection.
