Sterling Pro-Budget Battery Chargers are switch-mode chargers which are designed to be used where only a single battery bank is to be charged.
After the battery has been charged, the unit drops to a safe float voltage and the unit will act as a power pack, delivering up to the ampage in the maximum power output shown in the table below.
The chargers are preset for use with all lead-acid batteries:
- Open lead acid
- Sealed lead acid
- Gel
- A.G.M.
