Summary
The DLS-55 battery charger/power converter from IOTA
Engineering converts nominal 120V A.C. voltage to 13.4V D.C. As a power supply,
its tightly controlled regulation allows the user to operate any appropriate
nominal D.C. load up to the converter's rated output current. As a battery
charger, the DLS-55 will maintain the battery, delivering its full-rated
current when the battery capacity falls sufficiently low.
Description
The IOTA Engineering DLS-55 Battery Charger is set to
deliver its maximum current for the necessary period of time that minimizes
undue stress to the battery caused by heating of its cells. This helps to
ensure the longest possible life of the battery. Over time, as the battery
nears its full capacity, the converter will float-charge the battery to prevent
self-discharge of its cells.
