Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ Iota DLS-45/IQ4 - Smart Battery Charger/Power Supply, 12V 45 Amp, 4-Stage Automatic by Nick Reddy

LOVE IT! CALM! CALM! CALM!

Many chargers, such as B. the Noco models have this depressingly loud fan that hums when the charger is running. In this unit, the fan will NOT run when not in use. The fan kicks in slowly when needed, and then only gets louder when there's too much heat. In fact, the fan is properly temperature controlled. And a fan is a real fan that moves air and doesn't use its full power to make a buzzing sound. Otherwise, it charges quickly. Used it to charge two Trojan T105 golf cart batteries in a solar array with a generator. When I charged the batteries, it initially drew around 700W and then started to drop as the charge neared completion, typically within 1-3 hours depending on the SOC. My fan never came on. I've also used it to charge small 12v batteries and it seems to work fine. quality product. Much better than those cheap chargers.
