The DCDC 30Amp 12V Charger is the ultimate way to charge your dual batteries in your vehicle, boat or camper trailer. This unit will can supply a constant 30 Amp feed if required, and with with its unique “bypass charge” system to your dual batteries you can be sure that even when your fridge or electrical appliances are on during traveling you batteries are receiving good quality charge. Perfect for large battery banks of more than one deep cycle battery. The HCdP DCDC 30Amp 12V Charger can also charge your second battery direct from your solar panels as it has a built in 360W MPPC Solar Panel Charge controller.
This rugged DCDC 30Amp 12V Charger is cased in powder coated mild steel, and has built in cooling fans to ensure that the unit can provide optimum performance under extreme load and conditions.
Why do you need a DC/DC Charger?
A DC to DC charger eliminates the need for a dual battery switch and the need for heavy gauge wire from car to charger. When you put a battery in the back of your vehicle and run a cable from your main battery, you will most probably get a voltage drop. This will result in the extra battery to be not charged properly. The DC to DC charger is a step up charger which boosts the voltage at the extra battery to up to 14.2 volt in order to ensure a proper charge.
Where should you install a DC/DC charger?
Although tempting for convenience sake and space saving, the worst location for a vehicles dual battery and associated charger is under the bonnet of the car. This is because the performance and lifespan of electrical components is severely degraded by frequent and prolonged exposure to high temperatures. The ideal location is in a vented area away from excessive heat sources.
