I bought this Samlex Battery Charger over six months ago. It is large, very well built, and can also double up as a dc load power source. I really love this charger, it is easy to use and it is a much more professional level then any average battery charger.

It is also extremely reasonable all things considered. It comes with 4 connects, one ground terminal and three separate positive individually fused positive terminals. You don't have to use more then one if you are charging only one battery bank for example, but you do have the option to split its 15 amps of power amoung the 3 positive connections. Let's say you want to run one lead to a battery bank and the second lead to a dc load. All you gotta do is connect the different positive cables to two of the terminals, use the single ground terminal as a common ground and the unit will split the total of 15 amps accordingly.

This is one of the first really serious items I purchased setting up my solar battery bank and I use it when there are a run of rainy days. It is not small. The one con I can think of is after an hour or so of usage it starts to heat up a bit so I just bought a small 13 watt 6 inch AC fan which I plug into my prowatt true sine AC inverter that I have right next to it. Cools it right down and keeps it cool for hours.

I highly recommend this charger and am going to purchase a second 15 amp one or just go for the 30 amp model. Anyway, ya can't go wrong with this. And did I say how easy it is to set up for whatever batteries you may have or any dc load you may want to power?

Well it can't be simpler. It comes with four dip switches that are really simple to set, and a very precise and informative user guide to tell you how to set em!!
