Benefits of a bidirectional charger

SATURN SERIES

Distribute your power

More and more power systems are incorporating solar or even wind regulated charge on their leisure/domestic batteries, because who doesn’t like self-maintaining systems?

Always good to go

As an extension to the above- many vehicles will be sat passively for most of the year – and whether it’s for work, leisure or an emergency, you probably want your vehicle to be good to drive when you get back to it.

Self-Recovery 

In the worst case scenario- you’ve come to start your vehicle but the starter battery is drained… the BB can still be a lifeline to get you back in action. Our reverse charge feed can be engaged for 20 minutes, at will, manually. If you need to throw a bit more charge into the starter battery and get yourself back in action simply engage this feature, make a coffee, come back and hopefully you’re good to go.

Remote Product code : BBR

The Saturn remote (product code BBR) gives users or installers access to a lot of more advanced customisation features for the charger while also giving you full information about current operation.

  • Live voltage and current readings from the BB output
  • The ability to set custom charge profiles
  • The ability to adjust the current limit to 100%, 85% or 65% of current rating
  • Allows the removal of float feature in lithium profiles
  • Desulphation and equilisation settings can be customised and set.

Alternator to Battery charger

Battery to battery chargers can be used to optimise your alternator production in a similar manner to how the alternator to battery charger systems can – but in a current limiting manner, ensuring you don’t overwork your alternator even on a lithium system. Simply ensure your alternator output is connected to your starter battery directly, then install a battery to battery charger to charge the leisure system.
