XS Power 1005 12V 14V 16V AGM Vehicle Battery Charger 5A 15A 25A

The 1005 IntelliCHARGER is an advanced vehicle battery charger designed specifically for high performance leadacid batteries. This charger combines the reliability of a transformer and MOSFET rectifier assembly with an advanced microprocessor control board to create a vehicle battery charger that can rapidly and safely recharge 12V, 14V and 16V flooded, maintenance free, deep cycle, gel-cell, and AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries in several sizes. The front panel switches, LED indicators, and charge meter make the 1005 IntelliCHARGER very easy to use. 1005 DESCRIPTION MSRP: $385.99 12/14/16V vehicle battery IntelliCharger, 5A, 15A, 25A You can view or download the 1005 charger manual here. Multi-Stage Charging At the heart of the technology in the XS Power IntelliCHARGER are the three distinct charging stages. During the first stage, called “Bulk” charging, the current is fixed according to the charge rate switch on the front panel, and the voltage is allowed to float. During this stage, 80% of the vehicle battery’s capacity is restored. When the vehicle battery’s cell voltage comes up to the correct level, the second stage called “Absorption” charging is engaged. During this stage, the voltage is fixed according to the vehicle battery type and voltage switches on the front panel, and the current is allowed to float. The vehicle battery is brought to 100%during this stage and the cells are equalized. The third stage is float charging. During this stage, the voltage and current are reduced to a level that will maintain the vehicle battery indefinitely. Several microprocessors are used to tightly control the entire process. This is the same technique that vehicle battery manufacturers recommend and use in the production of new batteries and it is the fastest and safest technique for vehicle battery charging. Compatible With All 12V, 14V and 16V AGM and Gel-Cell Batteries Lead-acid batteries have different charging requirements based on their specific d
