Duetto universal charger from
BC Battery Controller
BC Battery Controller has launched what it is claiming to be the world’s first ever universal charger for lead-acid and LiFePo4 batteries.
Lithium batteries are gaining in popularity, but it’s neither efficient nor safe to charge and maintain them with traditional lead-acid chargers (traditional or smart), as they could damage the battery and endanger the user. However, BC Battery Controller’s new BC Duetto is an all-in-one smart charger with two specific algorithms for lead-acid and LiFePO4 12V batteries.
The unit features two different charging programmes, lead-acid mode and LiFePO4 mode. The programme selection is easy and intuitive with an innovative ‘Easy Plug-in System’, which just requires the user to put the clamps together and to connect the device to the power supply to switch from lead-acid mode to LiFePO4 mode or vice versa. The active charging mode is shown on a LED bar, and the last selected option will always be held in memory for later usage.
The lead-acid charging mode features an automatic eight-step charging and testing programme, which allows it to recover deeply discharged batteries (starting from 1.5V), recharge, desulfate and maintain all kinds of lead-acid 12V batteries (including sealed, VRLA, AGM and gel batteries) and even to recognize defective batteries, which are no longer able to retain the charge.
As a LiFePO4 charger, BC Duetto executes a seven-step algorithm which allows a fast and efficient charging of lithium-ironphosphate batteries, and charge balancing between the battery cells and maintenance of an optimum state of charge even for long periods.
Batteries are monitored by the internal microprocessor during the whole charging process, allowing the user to keep the device always connected, even for long periods.
