What Else You May Need
This charger is for 12V batteries. Make sure your battery matches the supported battery types and that you have the right connection method selected for your setup.
How It Works
The charger uses a four-step charging program: Initialization, Bulk Charge, Absorption Mode, and Float Mode. After the battery reaches full charge, it switches to float mode to maintain voltage.
If battery voltage drops too far under load, adaptive charging resumes full charger output power. The two-color LED indicates charge status during use.
Before You Decide
Confirm that your battery is a supported 12V type and check whether you want the ring harness or clip cables for connection. Also compare the charger size and 12-foot cord length with the space where it will be used.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for connection and charging.
