UNIQUE 12v Gaming Desktop PC FANLESS Passive Cooled NH-P1 Noctua Review and How To #wisebuyreviews
Built a gaming pc to RUN DIRECT from 12V battery and to have a FANLESS CPU cooler to make it quieter. Showing you the build process and the finished product. Exported the video on this and with Davinci Resolve running and rendering the video it pulled max about 210 watts, and idles at about 105. Although not completely silent, hearing the gpu fans, this is closer to the dream of having a quiet machine and one that works great. On off-grid setup, you usually need to convert battery DC power to AC power then to run to your PC which converts AC power to DC power again that powers your PC components. Eliminated the loss of the inverter in the process and got left with just converting DC to DC electricity. Awesome proof of concept for my brothers and sisters out there in the woods enjoying nature and that wish to have a full desktop for upgradeability and power without sacrificing efficiency, or running an extra inverter.
This guide was made to help others out there to do something similar and for me to share the passion of tech with the world along with innovative ideas, so that is why I provide tons of links for you to make it all happen. Just get in the game, and of course always practice safety and always HAVE FUN!

12v Wiring Direct to Lithium Car Battery from CABIN in 2016 HIGHLANDER How To #wisebuyreviews
In this video I run anderson connector wiring 6 cables of 10 awg direct from car battery which is Lifepo4 Dakota Lithium to inside of cabin to charge Solar generator, laptops and more from the comfort of the cabin. In previous video I upgraded my battery to Dakota lithium, see video here https://youtu.be/Mms05lZEYkA and used the wiring methods of the the anderson connector type, see my video here about it: https://youtu.be/zZkIR48C4uE. In the end of the video I was able to charge my 1000wh Oupes solar generator via a 12v to 24v up converter at 180 watts. Basically proof of concept. Now I can leave things to charge off my car battery even when my car is off. However when the car is on, I can harness the power of the alternator to do even more. Overall this was a positive experience to get this wired in my car to be able to sue the power it produces with it's 150 amp alternator.

Dakota Lithium 12v 135AH CAR Starter Lifepo4 Battery Review and How To Install #wisebuyreviews
Upgraded Highlander 2016 Limited to Dakota Lithium Lifepo4 starter battery. I show the experience of unboxing, my reasons for getting it and installing it, along with starting the car for the first time. Watch the comparison of the benefits between Lithium vs Lead Acid car starter battery. I bought this battery myself and am making this review because I am tech enthusiast and I wanted to share my experience with you so make sure to thumb up.
Got it at their website: https://dakotalithium.com/product/dl-plus-12v-135ah-dual-purpose-1000cca-starter-car-truck-battery-plus-deep-cycle-performance/
The ultimate all-purpose battery for both starting engines & deep cycle applications. With 1,000 cold cranking amps (CCA) and a high continuous discharge rate, the DL+ 135Ah has 5X the power of traditional batteries in a case that is 25% smaller than a 100Ah marine battery. PLUS internal even-heat technology for use in extreme heat or cold.
--- CHECKING INTO THE COMPETITION: This version of a lifepo4 starter battery available for amazon cheaper at about $429 may be worth checking out too: https://amzn.to/3LESyYp [Amazon affiliate link]
WEIZE 12V 105AH Dual Purpose LiFePO4 Lithium Battery, 1000CCA Group 31 Group 27 GC2 Starter Battery Plus Deep Cycle Performance, Built-in Smart BMS, Perfect for Automotive, Trolling Motor, Marine, RV -- Warning 100amp charge limit. How much does your alternator produce, if you have a 4 cylinder it might be fine.
-- Someone should get it and make a review. As for me I'll take the best and leave the rest. I like mine has a bigger capacity, the heating elements and excellent warranty. Looking at the specs, it say on the Weize that it has max 100amp charging current, and Highlander has 150 amp alternator. So it wouldn't work for me anyway, and I definitely did the right thing going with Dakota.
Other videos I watched before getting this.
