Suggestions for a good 24v charger

Post by Peter Silcock »

The old mainstay of 24v lead acid/agm battery chargers, the Accumate Pro seems to be long gone and probably outdated now. Can anyone suggest a modern multi stage 24v charger as an alternative for a new Armortek owner?

I use two CTEK 5A chargers for my SLA batteries.

If you want to stick to a 24V charger, they do one, which I believe is what Mark used to use to charge the factory models.

Check the current output though, as some SLA batteries don't like too high a charging current.
The Yuasa REC22 batteries I have bought recently have a maximum charging current of 5.5 amps.

Adrian.

Thanks Adrian and Vince for the replies. Forgot about CTEK and I use them on my cars as battery maintainers as well! An age thing...
