Marine battery chargers are devices used for restoring the charge of marine batteries to full. Because they are used onboard boats, they are made with moisture-resistant circuitry and waterproof and corrosion-resistant bodies. They can also be used for other marine applications requiring 24-, 36-, or 48-volt charging.
Types Of Marine Battery Chargers
Kinds of Marine Battery Chargers include the following:
Trickle chargers
Trickle chargers are built with timers that shut off at a specific time.
The timers prevent the chargers from overcharging.
Single leg chargers
Single leg chargers can charge only one battery at a time.
Dual leg chargers (picture not available)
Dual leg chargers can charge two batteries at one time.
Triple leg chargers
Triple leg chargers can charge three batteries at one time.
Smart chargers
Smart chargers automatically charge batteries when they become low.
They charge in three phases.
Phase one involves charging batteries up to 75%.
Phase two and phase three involve slow charging to complete the cycle.
Choosing Marine Battery Chargers (Buying Tips)
Indicator: Choose a marine battery charger with a built-in mode indicator for displaying the charge level and duration. Maintenance: For ease of use, choose a maintenance-free marine battery charger. Look for the maintenance-free indication in the label. Solar battery: Choose a solar marine battery charger that can power the smaller gadgets in your boat such as a PDA or a camera.
