Compatible Multiple Battery Types

Compatible with a multitude of alternator types, the DC-DC battery charger offers correct charging for AGM, Flooded, Gel, and Lithium batteries.

Smart 3-stage Charging

The DC-DC battery charger will charge your house batteries from the starter battery by 3-stage charging (Bulk, Boost, and Float), to make sure it optimally and automatically charge to 100%.

Various Protections For Ultra Safety

The DC-DC battery charger isolates the input and output to prevent voltage transmission errors and interfere with house battery charging. It has multifunctional safety technology including over-voltage protection, over-temperature protection, and reverse polarity protection to make it safer for use.

Protect Your Starter Battery

This Renogy DC-DC battery charger is compatible with traditional and smart alternators. The D+ Ignition cable is capable of identifying whether the generator is started, to prevent over-discharge of the starting battery and protect the generator. 18-16AWG copper cable recommended.

Please note the D+ Ignition Cable is not included.

Protect Your House Battery

The LC wire can automatically adjust the charging current to prevent excessive charging current from damaging the house battery. 18-16AWG copper cable recommended.

Please note the LC cable is not included.

Prolong Battery Lifespan

The charger needs to select the charging mode according to the battery voltage. By utilizing the DC-DC temperature sensor, this charger is able to protect your battery from high or low temperature by giving -3mV/°C/2V compensation so that the charger recognizes the voltage more accurately and assures stable and constant charging to the battery.

Please note the temperature sensor is not included and it cannot use with Lithium batteries.

1. What is a DC-DC charger? What is its purpose?

 
The DC-DC battery charger is installed between the starter battery and the house battery. For the RV system, The generator ensures stable power supply to the starter battery, and uses the extra power of the starter battery to supply power to the house battery.

2. How to choose a suitable battery charger?

 

1. Make sure that the entire system is a 12V system

2. Ensure that the maximum charging current provided by the DC-DC battery charger does not exceed the maximum charging current allowed by the house battery

3. How to set the charging voltage value of the charger?

 
The DC-DC battery charger adopts the design of the DIP switch and it provides 6 charging voltage settings through five gears. These six charging voltages meet the requirements of lithium batteries and lead-acid batteries in order to provide more charging options. SW5 switch is the selection switch for switching between lead-acid batteries and lithium batteries.

4. What is the D+ Ignition cable? Is it necessary to connect?

 

The D+ Ignition cable is a design method used to identify whether the generator is started. This design method can well prevent the starting battery from being over-discharged during the charging process. When the generator is started, a signal will be obtained on the D+ Ignition cable, which will light up the indicator light of the charger.

The DC-DC will not power on or operate until the D+ ignition cable is connected.

5. How can I get these cables?

 
The battery temperature sensor for DC-to-DC car battery chargers can be purchased at the Renogy store. The D+ ignition cable can be purchased at the local store or online, it suits both D+ and LC terminals. 18-16AWG copper cable recommended.

    Nice addition for charging on the road

    Posted by Wayne57 on Mar 4th 2023

    I mounted this in the front tub of our teardrop trailer to charge my 100aH lifepo4 battery while going down the road. Nice instructions and it works great. I like the ability to charge at either 10 or 20 amps. I have the D+ cable wired into the running lights of the trailer so I can turn the charger on/off by just turning the running lights on/off.

    Does what it should. Double check settings.

    Posted by JJ on Aug 8th 2022

    Does exactly what you expect it to. The fan runs quite a bit at full current and often even at half current. Double check what position is going on vs. off for dipswitches and triple check which numbers you have in which positions. I got it wrong the first time even though I was warned in advance.
