REDARC’s new DC-DC charger can also charge and recover your flat start battery

REDARC, a name synonymous with tough mobile power solutions for over 45 years, has just dropped their newest piece of kit: the BCDC Alpha. Available in 25A and 50A models, this next-gen charger builds on over 15 years of trusted BCDC technology and brings new features to make life easier for everyone, from seasoned adventurers to everyday drivers.

What makes the BCDC Alpha stand out? For starters, it’s got a Start Battery Recovery feature, which can get a flat start battery up and running in about 15 minutes. That’s a game-changer, making it the only DC-DC charger out there that can both charge and recover start batteries. It’s also set up with optimised solar charging, meaning any extra power can be sent to the start battery to keep it topped up. The BCDC Alpha works with all the usual automotive battery types and has customisable input current limiting to protect your vehicle’s alternator. This is especially handy for hybrid and electric vehicles, so if you’re driving something future-ready, this charger’s got you covered.

That sounds complicated. Do I need a science degree to use it?

Setting up the BCDC Alpha is a breeze thanks to Bluetooth connectivity with the RedVision app. You can monitor everything from charger status to temperature and system performance straight from your phone. Plus, over-the-air updates mean your system will keep getting better with new features. With simple pushbutton controls and screw connections, there’s no need for tricky wiring or soldering. REDARC’s even got a range of wiring kits and mounting brackets ready to suit different vehicles, making it their easiest BCDC to install yet.

Peter Favilla, REDARC’s Global President, says, “The BCDC Alpha exemplifies REDARC’s commitment to innovation and adaptability in a rapidly evolving market. With features like Start Battery Recovery and input current limiting, the BCDC Alpha delivers peace of mind through its unmatched durability and advanced technology, ensuring reliable power in the most critical moments.”

Built tough in Australia, the BCDC Alpha is made to handle the rough stuff. With an IP67/69K-rated casing, it’s dustproof, waterproof, and ready for anything you can throw at it. Combining rugged durability with modern tech and easy setup, this new charger is a solid choice for anyone looking for reliable power management on the go.
