REDARC BCDC1225D DC-DC battery charger, 12 V, 25 A, MPPT solar regulator

The REDARC BCDC1225D is an in-vehicle DC-DC battery charger with a 12 V output and 25 A charging current. Its built-in MPPT solar regulator lets it charge the auxiliary battery from the alternator and solar panels at the same time. Green Power Priority selects solar charging first, putting less load on the alternator. For most applications it suits battery banks of 75–200 Ah; for capacities over 200 Ah the manufacturer recommends the BCDC1240D.
