[RE-wrenches] 12V battery charger

[Larry Crutcher, Starlight Solar Power Systems]

If you can wait, Magnum Energy has a stand alone, power factor corrected charger coming out. I've been bugging them for a couple years about it. Otherwise we have sold hundreds of Iota's. A 3 stage charger (with IQ) and voltage range can be adjusted internally. Not bad for the price.

Wrenches,
 
I’m looking for a battery charger to augment an OutBack FX 2012 inverter/charger for a 12V off-grid system that could use shorter charging times during our cloudy late fall/winter periods in northern Vermont. Both the generator and the battery bank are amply sized as is the PV array. I have used Iota chargers in the past, but wondered if they are other options worth considering.
 
Thanks,
Dave
