Chapter 1 contains information on the features available and
the location of important parts on the front panel of the
Duracell® 15 AMP Battery Charger.
Duracell® Charger Features
The Duracell® Charger is an advanced battery charger
designed specifically for high performance, deep-cycle lead-
acid engine batteries. It is smaller and lighter than many other
chargers.
Duracell® Charger changes the alternating current (AC)
supply from the utility to the controlled low-voltage, direct
current (DC) required to charge a 12 V battery by using high-
frequency, switching-mode power conversion circuits. The
high-frequency power conversion method is similar to that
used in power supplies for computers and other electronic
equipment. It results in a significantly smaller and lighter
charger than other power conversion methods allow.
The Duracell® Charger has AC to DC isolation, a surge
protector, and many other safety features which reduce
potential shock and fire hazards.
