The holy grail of lowrider battery chargers! 36v 30a
« on: October 21, 2009, 11:59:06 AM »
It took me years to find the perfect 36v charger. I believe this is it!

I had it spec'd by Curtis to charge 6x 663/4 style batteries concurrently (in a 2x3 36v configuration). It fully charges all six batteries in 7-13 hours in a microprocessor controlled system. The best thing about this charger is the size. It's about the same size, but half the height of a lowrider battery and has it's own cooling system, so can be permanently mounted in the boot of a car (assuming the fan is unrestricted).

I have used it on less than 20 occasions, and it is in as-new condition.

Datasheet specs can be found here:

For reference, it is the 36v 30amp model in case 'A'.

It was not cheap however, retail is around £500, but Curtis sold me this one for a little over £300 delivered.

Looking for £200 including shipping.

Man, I need your help when I spec my charger for the Impala. Hoping to run 8 batteries. This looks perfect for someone with 6 batts. Russ? At the end of the day the annoying hassle of owning a lowrider is the charging process. Make that easy and life gets much easier.

That's top. Well done Chris. Hope it all works out and, obviously, keep in touch. Keep those eyes peeled for clean W123s!
