One solution to charging the Li-Ion batteries from a 12 V DC source is to use a small inverter. One I've found which works well is the Samlex PST-120-12. It's a small "pure sine wave" inverter, rated 120 W, costing about $120. It seems to work just fine with the KXBC2 charger, and should work just as well with the KXBC3. I would use only a "pure sine wave" inverter, as the square wave from a "modified sine wave" inverter is likely to cause the charger to malfunction.

Needless to say, I have no connection with the vendor, other than as a customer. I've had good luck with other Samlex products.
