FAQ’s
Can I change the clamps on the charger with quick disconnects?
Yes. We recommend soldering all electrical connections where possible.
Can I run my electric water pump and cooling fan while charging?
Yes, with a word of caution, but there are two issues. First, the charger will only provide 15A
max(PSC15), 30A max(PSC30), or 60A max(PSC60), or 90A(PSC90) charge current. Any amperage
being consumed by extra electrical loads (ie. electric water pumps, etc.) will take away from the
amperage available for battery charging and the battery charge time will be increased. In addition,
the battery charger monitors the battery voltage and time to determine when the battery is at 100%
charge. Extra electrical loads on the system will give the charger false information and therefore will
prevent the charger from properly completing stage two.
Second, some electrical items can be damaged by high voltages. Data loggers, computers, and
other items may lose data or be seriously damaged if subjected to the 19.0~20.0VDC of charging
voltage. We do not recommend retrieving this information while charging. If in doubt about a
particular component, consult with its manufacturer concerning its maximum input voltage.
CAUTION:
Data loggers, computers of all sorts, and light bulbs may be damaged by the 19.0~20.0VDC
of input voltage during charging. Do not operate these items while charging. We recommend disconnecting
the battery from the system while charging.
