I've seen on ebay a guy makes them for you, with bullet connectors and wraps them in carbon vynil and they look good. Rating are 12v/75amp/900w that runs about $55 bucks. There amother box that's ratings are 12.4v/85amp/1025w for around $75.

What I've researched so far is you can't get over 500w out of 12v so are the ratings listed wrong on the listing? This supply is also just a litter bigger then a dollar bill compared to the big ones I was reading about with super loud fans.
If somebody could give me some advise here I'm new to this next level of charging and want to buy a 1 time charging station I won't have to ever upgrade. I shouldnt be charging anything over 4s and I want to be able t charge quick atleast 25-30amps
Answer - Note: as I do not know that particular power supply, but- a 12v power source can deliver those kind of amps and much more.
Look at a real car charger, it can have a setting to start a car straight from the battery charger. It is not a regulated power source, but I have used one as a charging power supply myself.
