It's still rather slow, but I don't have any need for a fast charging.

Thanks for the comment! I never knew that diode drops the voltage, I guess that because the car voltage when running would probably be around 13.8-14.2V dropping another .7V would not be very good...

There's really no reason for anyone to plug in a 12v plug into 220v or the other way around, and I would probably also use extra protections to make sure it won't happen.

But generally I just want...

I don't really need more than 12v though, and the price I'm paying for that doesn't seems to be worthy to me when I could simply use what I already have.

I'm not really sure that a 12v battery with 10AH for a price I could simply get around 40-75AH battery would help me all that much though, and I already have some batteries I could use.
