Enerdrive ePOWER DC2DC Plus Battery Charger with MPPT 12v 40A

Set and forget

The Enerdrive ePOWER DC2DC Plus Battery Charger is a fully automatic multistage, multi input battery charger with the ability to charge from either an alternator linked to a battery; or via solar power with the in built Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Solar Controller. With two inputs available, the house battery will be charged from either the engine while underway, or via the solar panels when stationary. The process to choose either engine or solar is fully automatic and both functions are controlled from within the unit itself without the need for external relays.

Multistage Charging Process
Multistage smart charging technology enables the charger to be connected to your battery banks permanently. With the input of multiple sources, you can be assured of charging your batteries whenever underway; or when the sun is shining on your solar array. Deep cycle batteries require a multistage charge sequence for perfect, fast and accurate charging.

Smart Charging
The output will be regulated based on the loads connected to your battery banks. This function is important to maintain the life of your battery banks as some battery chargers mistake loads for discharge and continue to keep the batteries in the bulk or absorption stage for extended periods of time, which will damage the battery bank. This battery charger has two methods of load based regulation to ensure your battery charger transitions to float when it should do so.
