Sterling Power PCU2420 – Pro Charge Ultra 24V 20A Battery Charger
Choose options
The Sterling Power PCU2420 is a 24V 20A mains battery charger from the Pro Charge Ultra range — a compact, switch-mode charger built to keep 24V banks properly topped up from shore power or a generator. It delivers a full multi-stage charge rather than a crude constant voltage, so your batteries are charged correctly and held at the right float.
