Renogy 60A DC-to-DC Battery Charger
Overview
A compact, fully featured 12V DC-to-DC charger designed to keep your house batteries topped up from a vehicle or generator. It supports multiple battery chemistries, uses a three-stage charging algorithm to bring batteries to full capacity, and includes isolated input/output and built-in protections for safer, more reliable charging.
Benefits
- Keep your house battery ready when you need it, so appliances and systems work reliably on the road or at camp.
- Reduce battery wear and extend service life by charging with the correct multi-stage profile for your battery type.
- Lower the risk of starter failure by preventing starter-battery over-discharge during charging and generator starts.
- Spend less time troubleshooting battery problems thanks to automatic voltage compensation and safety features that reduce misuse and damage.
- Install in tight spaces with a compact, rugged housing and CE/ROHS certifications for peace of mind.
Features
- Compatible with AGM, Flooded (lead-acid), Gel, and Lithium batteries.
- Three-stage charging: Bulk, Boost, and Float to charge batteries to 100% automatically.
- Isolated input/output design for safer electrical separation between starter and house systems.
- Comprehensive electronic protections including reverse polarity, over-current, and over-temperature safeguards.
- Works with both traditional and smart alternators; supports D+ ignition detection for controlled operation when the generator or engine starts.
- LC wire functionality to adjust charging current and help prevent overcharging of the house battery.
- DIP-switch selectable charging voltages with six settings; SW5 selects lead-acid vs. lithium modes.
- Temperature compensation available (-3 mV/°C per 2V) when using an external temperature sensor (sensor not included; not compatible with Lithium mode).
- Compact, robust design with CE and ROHS certification.
- Recommended wiring: 18–16 AWG copper cable for signal/communication leads; D+ and LC cables not included.
