Thread: WORLD'S BEST BATTERY CHARGERS

Do these chargers get hard wired into the system, so recharge the batteries whenever connected to the mains or external 240V source?

Or do you neet to turn them on and off in response to battery need?

Hi Lotz and you can either permanently mount the charger in your CT or caravan and hard wire them to your batteries, or as I have done for a few customers now, I make up leads with Anderson plugs on them and in-line fuses.

One end of the lead is permanently hard wired to one of the two or three output from the battery charger and then you can fit similar leads on each battery.

The chargers are NOT water proof but they are splash proof and can be used any where where they are out of direct rain or similar, so they work well mounted in workshops, garages or just under a carport.

It's to power my SIIb which has been internally converted to a camper.



There are numerous options for mounting, most likely inside a cupboard adjacent the 240V breaker board.

The big issue is that I plan to install solar panels on tom of the roof, so there will be 3 power sources that need to be integrated.

bugger, you posted a few days too late bought a charger the other day but this would have been better and it is cheaper,

may need another soon for the van

Hi Drivesafe - what's the difference between the 1st and 3rd units in your list? They have the same codes but one is a lot more than the other.

What size would you get for normal automotive recharging on a LR? 15A?

How would you compare them to the well known CTEK units of equivalent capacity?

Thanks
David

Thanks Dave and a typo.

I have fixed it now so it make sense.

Cheers

Hi again Lotz and I’ll check about the solar being connected at the same time but I am pretty sure it’s not a problem, but I will still confirm this for you.

Hi Banjo and sorry mate, I have been selling them for a few months now but have been to busy to put them up on my web site ( and still haven’t ).

The importer has given me some really good prices so even though they are dearer than standard battery chargers, their advanced technology makes their cost worthwhile.

As above, these are great for charging new Lithium batteries and it is this ( and the long warranty period ) that is the main reason I have taken on the range.

These chargers have already saved a few lithium battery sellers, who could not supply any form of battery charging for lithium batteries being used in RV situations.

The ProNautic can be used with any conventional battery but as lithium batteries become available, they are already set up for them and I might add have proven their worth, for charging banks of lithium batteries in 4x4s ( including at least one D4 I set up ) and some motor homes.
