REDARC BCDC Alpha50 R – 50A DC-DC Battery Charger with Smart Monitoring
The REDARC BCDC Alpha50 R is a high-performance, multi-stage 12V 50A DC-DC battery charger that combines next-generation charging technology with intelligent power management. Engineered specifically for dual battery systems in 4WDs, RVs, caravans, and camper trailers, it ensures your auxiliary battery is always fully charged, whether you're on the move or parked off-grid.
Key Functional Highlights
Dual Source Charging: Charges from both vehicle alternator and solar (MPPT solar regulator built-in).
Green Power Priority™: Automatically prioritizes solar energy to maximize eco-efficiency and reduce fuel consumption.
Start Battery Recovery: Revive a flat starter battery in minutes with pushbutton or RedVision app control.
Battery Monitoring: Onboard real-time smart monitoring of
- State of Charge (% SoC)
- Charging and discharging current
- Time to full or depletion
- Historical energy consumption
Input Current Limiting: Configurable current limit protects modern vehicles with limited alternator output or EVs with DC-DC converters.
Lithium Ready: Fully compatible with both standard and heated LiFePO4 batteries.
Thermal Protection: Integrated fanless passive cooling with temperature-based current derating to prevent overheating.
Fully Sealed: Dustproof, splashproof, and vibration-resistant for reliable performance in rugged environments.
