Charge voltages in this listing
- 14.6 V: the usual full-charge voltage of 4-cell LiFePO4 batteries (12.8 V nominal).
- 18.2 V: check that it matches the charge voltage your battery’s manufacturer specifies.
- 29.2 V: the usual full-charge voltage of 8-cell LiFePO4 batteries (25.6 V nominal).
Always use the charge voltage your battery’s manufacturer specifies.

Choosing the right model
- Choose the charge voltage that matches your battery’s chemistry and number of cells.
- Check that the charging current does not exceed your battery’s maximum charge current: for example, a 100 Ah battery limited to 0.5C accepts up to 50 A.
- The input range must cover your source voltage, including the higher voltage while a vehicle’s engine is running.
- Each model has its own PVShop datasheet. It appears with the full specifications when you select the model above.
