I might have overcharged it a little... Accidently put it on 4.35V (LiHV). Wondered why it took so long.

But Gerard, how can you use the DC converter with such a short wire/cable... Who said I would? Two meters enough?

The DC to DC converter works well. Powering from a laptop power brick (20V@15A), stepping down to 12V.

Easy way to get a 300W powersupply for your charger? Take a power supply brick for a laptop and add an XT60. I do with Lenovo/ThinkPad bricks. Very stable 20V supply, that can still be used for a laptop and ThinkCentre if you also solder the plug to a female XT60: the Lenovo slimtip has a signal pin that tells the machine what the max ampa/wattage is that can be provided. Note: since the voltage is higher than a server power supply (12V) the cables don't have to be so thick to provide the same wattage.
