24 Volt SLA Battery Float Charger, 1.2 Amp (1200ma), with Alligator Clip, 24V Battery Tender

24 Volt SLA Battery Float Charger, 1.2 Amp (1200ma), with Alligator Clip, 24V Battery Tender Review



24 Volt SLA Battery Float Charger, 1.2 Amp (1200ma), with Alligator Clip, 24V Battery Tender Feature

  • Charges sealed lead acid battery (VRLA) with two mode, fast charge mode and float mode
  • When fully charge automatically switch to Float Charger Mode to maintain at full charge
  • 24 volt, 1.2 amp (1200mA), with alligator clip; ideal for 24 volt SLA battery
  • LED - Red, charge, Green, float (dead battery LED will stay green since cannot enter charge mode)
  • Not a power supply; cannot charge and provide power for device at same time
24 volt SLA battery float charger, or 24v battery tender, is ideal for charging and maintaining the life of SLA battery. SLA battery is common; car battery, golf cart battery, boat battery, UPS, and model train battery are just the few types of commonly used SLA battery. SLA battery float chargers, or battery tender are great way to maintain the life of these battery and keeping them at full charge at time when seldom used. Ideal for 24 volt SLA battery, the charger provides two mode, fast charge mode at 1.2 amps. Once the battery is fully charge the SLA battery charger will switch to float mode, and maintain the battery at full power without damaging the battery, thereby acting as battery tender. The float charger mode will detect the voltage and limit the amount of power going into the battery to protect the battery. Buying tips - The preferred charging rate for sealed lead acid battery is 10% to 15%, meaning a 2000mAh battery should use a 0.2amp or 200 milliamp to 0.3 amp or 300 milliamp charger.

The microprocessor of the Schumacher SC-10030A SpeedCharge Automatic Charger and Maintainer monitors the attached battery's voltage level from the moment it is connected, using this ever-changing data to improve the charging system's multi-stage charging cycle. Multi-stage charging allows a battery charger to automatically cycle, between a variety of charging phases including desulfation, bulk charging, absorption, monitoring, float mode and a minimal drip charge maintain mode when a connected battery again falls below a certain set level. The microprocessor collected data is especially important in this cycle in that with it the SC-10030A can more accurately measure the charging needs of a connected battery, resulting in quicker charge times and a lessened chance of damage due to overcharging.

2-Amp and 12<>30-Amp Charging Rates

An additional key to the speed with which the Schumacher SC-10030A SpeedCharge Automatic Charger and Maintainer works is its 2 available charging rates: 2-amp and 12<>30-amp. By allowing users to choose the best rate for the right battery type and charging needed the SC-10030A is better able to supply exactly the right level of charge, at the right time in the charging cycle to get quick results and maintain connected batteries at theie proper levels. Details on the three available charging rates include:

  • 12<>30-amp Fast Charge– Self-adjusting, variable charge rates for everyday charging needs and maintaining your battery in peak condition. Charges and automatically desulfates and restores car, truck, RV, farm equipment, AGM, gel cell and deep-cycle batteries.
  • 2-amp Slow Charge– A gentle trickle charge for charging and maintaining small batteries; charges motorcycle, ATV, snowmobile and lawn tractor batteries.

Valuable Additional Features

In addition to serving as a battery charger the Schumacher SC-10030A also contains several automotive diagnostic tools that come in handy in any garage. These include: an AC powered battery jumpstarter, a built-in battery tester and an built-in alternator tester.

An AC Powered Jumpstarter

Your Schumacher SC-10030A battery charger can be used to jump start your vehicle using the built-in "engine start" feature if the battery is low. This feature is capable of delivering up to 100-amps of jumpstarting power via your household AC current.

Five-Step Charging Process

The NOCO G750 uses a five-step process to charge and maintain your battery. First, it checks your battery's voltage to make sure that the connections are good and that the battery is in stable condition before beginning the charge process. Second, it begins a bulk-charging process with a gentle (soft) charge. Third, it continues bulk-charging and returns 90 percent of the battery's capacity.

Fourth, it brings the charge level to 100 percent by delivering small amounts of current to provide a safe, efficient charge and limit battery gassing. And fifth, it monitors the battery voltage to determine whether a maintenance charge should be initiated. The maintenance cycle is repeated to keep the battery at full charge, without overcharging, and the charger can be left connected indefinitely.

Switch-Mode Design with Advanced Features

The NOCO G750 features a high-frequency, high-efficiency switch-mode design, resulting in a charger that's compact and lightweight.
