BATTERY CHARGERS!




Some situations require the use of a stand-alone battery charger.  Maybe you need one to keep your RV batteries charged when connected to utility power, or powering up from a portable generator.  Perhaps you are planning a small DC-only electrical system that doesn't have an inverter/charger.  Any time you need to charge batteries from an AC source, it pays to get a quality charger that treats your batteries well and make good use of the AC power.  One commonly overlooked use is for quick and efficient charging of marine batteries.

Iota battery chargers are quality units that can also be used as a power supply for DC loads.  This might be the case in an RV, and an Iota can potentially be used to replace a RV "converter" that powers DC lights and
appliances.  Any time you need to power a DC load from an AC power source, Iota is the answer.  Multiple Iota chargers can be connected in series or parallel to increase voltage or amperage, respectively.  Charge voltage can be user-adjusted with a digital voltmeter and simple tools.  Iota chargers do not have a "float" mode, so they charge continuously, tapering off the charge current to maintain the voltage at the bulk setting.

Using state-of-the-art, switch-mode technology, IOTA Power Converter/Battery Chargers are engineered to be durable and withstand variable environmental conditions. Extra care has been given to insure many years of service-free operation, even when subjected to extremely harsh conditions. Batteries are charged quickly and efficiently without over-charging and pumps, motors, and fans operate perfectly for prolonged life.

Xantrex Truecharge 2 is a 12 volt, 40 amp, 3-stage charger that has equalizing capability.  Xantrex inverter technology means that this charger will perform well even
with very small portable generators (1200 watt minimum).  It has settings for different battery types, and has automatic temperature compensation when used with the optional sensor.  Designed for use with a wide range of input voltage and frequency, and will charge up to 3 separate battery banks at the same time.  Two chargers can be connected in series for 24 volt charging.
