Overview
Built for anglers who rely on multiple battery types, this onboard charger is designed to manage 12V lithium LiFePO4, AGM, and flooded lead acid batteries with selectable settings for each charging bank. Its microprocessor-based control, automatic multi-stage charging, and temperature and low-line voltage compensation are aimed at delivering a consistent charge in changing conditions. LED indicators provide clear status updates, including charge stage, maintenance mode, error notifications, and full charge. With waterproof, shock-resistant, and vibration-resistant construction, it suits boats and rigs where the charger may face frequent movement and exposure.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Battery type selection is bank-specific, so setup needs to match each battery type you’re charging rather than treating all banks the same.
- Battery equalization is limited to flooded lead acid batteries only; it does not apply to AGM or lithium batteries.
- The charger is designed for 12V AGM, flooded lead acid, and lithium LiFePO4 batteries, so it is not a universal solution for other battery voltages or chemistries.
- Power cord length is 8.5 ft. and battery leads are 6 ft., which may require attention to charger placement and battery layout during installation.
