Product Info
In addition to meeting global safety and regulatory standards, TRUECHARGE2
Battery Chargers feature low electrical interference and superior, efficient,
power factor corrected multistage charging. TRUECHARGE2 Battery Chargers can be
mounted virtually anywhere, given their unique drip-proof design. With certified
ignition protection, even a gasoline engine room is an alternative for
installation*. Trouble-free installation is ensured with easy-to-access AC and
DC wiring compartments and reverse-polarity battery protection.
Designed primarily for marine and commercial applications worldwide,
TRUECHARGE2 Battery Chargers are unmatched for reliability. Available in two
12-volt models, they are versatile enough to be used in a wide variety of
conditions and locations. Auto-ranging AC input voltage capability (90 - 265
volts AC) makes traveling abroad and handling poor-quality power a breeze. The
easy-to-read display can be augmented with an optional remote panel.
Performance Features

Tested (HALT) to -20°C.
Note: Specifications subject to change without notice.
Three-Stage Charging
Multistage charging ensures batteries receive optimum charging, but with
minimal wear and tear, regulating the voltage and current delivered to the
batteries in three automatic stages:
- Bulk: Replaces 70-80% of the battery’s state-of-charge at the fastest
possible rate.
- Absorption: Replenishes the remaining 20-30% of charge, bringing the battery
to a full charge at a slow, safe rate.
- Float: Voltage is reduced and held constant in order to prevent damage and
maintain batteries at a full charge.
Power Factor Corrected (PFC)
Less shorepower is required for charging batteries, freeing up more usable AC
power for running electrical devices and appliances and reducing the likelihood
of tripping shorepower breakers.
