How do I charge a B80 from the AC180. I bought these together as a package deal. And I have not come across an example of how to charge the B80 from the AC180. With the AC180 plugged into the 120 VAC house outlet!
The one thing I see is to plug the cigarette adapter (for the B80) into to the AC180 Cigarette Lighter Adapter port and then plug the other end of that cable into BP80 DC Input port! (This is not shown anywhere! Will this work or blow the unit?) Or does the configuration mess up the charging of the AC180 battery?
@MikeChris
This requires purchasing a T200S adapter.
The AC output port of AC180 can charge B80 only through the T200S.
The B80 can charge from the 12V car accessory (ciggie) socket, so you should be able to use the AC180 in the way that you described. I would recommend you disconnect the B80’s output from the AC180 before you charge though.
The only problem you have with the 12V socket, its not build for permanent power delievery. Theese thing can get quite hot and even melt when using them for too long. So i wouldnt recommend to use this in a permanetly installed build.
