TRUEcharge3 Battery Charger, 12V - 20A

Ultra-Compact, High Performance Charger for Worldwide Charging
TRUEcharge3 battery chargers are at the forefront of the industry, characterized by their compact size and ultra-compact design. These chargers not only comply with international safety and regulatory standards but also exhibit low electrical interference and efficient, power factor corrected multistage charging. Their built-in drip-proof design allows for versatile mounting options. In contrast to earlier models, the TRUEcharge3 is compatible with Lithium-ion batteries.

TRUEcharge3 is engineered for both recreational and commercial use globally, accommodating input voltages of 90–265 Vac and frequencies of 47–63 Hz, thereby facilitating international travel and the management of substandard power sources. The 12 V models feature a user-friendly display that can be enhanced with an optional remote panel. Each model is equipped with integrated safeguards against surges and spikes in the AC power line.

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 the remaining 20–30% of charge, bringing the battery to a full charge at a slow, safe rate

Power Factor Corrected (PFC) Charging
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
