    rotated tires changed oil threw out the old air freshener.
    I'm really enjoying the Bafang conversion GT Richter e-bike conversion. What a hoot!

    So I want to recharge the battery while driving.

    Can I just plug in the charger to the bed outlet and toggle the dash switch?

    Amps are amps and all that , but I have no clue what the charger draws.

    The charger is a UY240 with a 4 amp output rating, In put is 100 -240 watts. Quite a range...

    Can it charge while I drive?

    Only aesthetic mods so far Leer 180 cap & Clazzio covers on order.
    Maybe.
    You'd have to use the 400 watt setting with the truck in Park and running.
    Might take a while for a full charge.
    Hope you can afford the fuel.
