Blue Sea Add-A-Battery Plus Kit with Charger - 65A Europe Model

A complete small boat battery management system. Charge two batteries at or away from the dock.

This Add a battery kit is similar to the Blue Sea 7649 (see related products) however this unit comes with 10 Amp BatteryLink Charger Model 7604

The M-Series Battery Switch allows you to start with both batteries in the event of a low power situation. The Battery Link Charger comes with IP67 waterproof rating and provides AC charging from Shore power and also combines input from DC charging via the  alternator.

AC Charging (At the Dock)

The Blue Sea BatteryLink Charger works like a typical AC charger. When you plug in the AC cord, power is supplied allowing up to 10 amps of current to charge the connected batteries. Unlike a typical two bank charger, the BatteryLink Charger will charge both batteries simultaneously through the integrated ACR. When AC power is present, the ACR will combine both batteries and the AC charger will charge them as one bank. For this reason the BatteryLink Charger can only be used in 12 V applications.

DC Charging (Away from the Dock)

The Blue Sea BatteryLink Charger incorporates DC charging through an integrated 65 A Automatic Charging Relay (ACR). An ACR uses a relay combined with a voltage sensing circuit. When a DC charge is being applied to either battery, and causes the voltage to rise above 13.0 V, the relay closes and combines the two batteries to share the charge. When the charge is taken away or a load on the battery causes the voltage to drop below 12.75 V, the relay will open, isolating the two batteries. This means that even when the BatteryLink Charger is disconnected from AC power you can charge both your battery banks with an onboard DC charging source, like an engine alternator.
