Ctek D250s battery to battery charger with built in solar MPPT charger. Takes input from solar and/or alternator to charge main and leisure battery DC/DC solution for operational charging The D250S DUAL charger obtains its energy from DC sources such as alternators, solar panels or wind power and optimises this power to meet the charging requirements of different battery banks. The D250S DUAL automatically selects the best connected DC energy source (of 2) for the purpose and switches between these energy sources to achieve high efficiency multi-stage charging. The D250S DUAL is particularly suitable for charging caravans, motor caravans, boats and second homes that do not have access to grid power supplies. Charging automatically starts as soon as DC energy is provided to the charger, such as from alternators when a vehicle is started or from solar panels when connected. The D250S DUAL has a temperature sensor which ensures optimal charging voltages at all temperatures. The D250S DUAL ensures that your batteries are always in good condition, quick charging and long battery lifetimes. The D250S DUAL is a fully automatic 5-stage charger that supplies 20A to 12V batteries of 40-300Ah. The charger is IP65 classified (water jet and dust protected and approved for outdoor use), protects vehicle electronics and is suitable for all types of lead-acid batteries (Wet, MF, Gel, AGM).

Thanks for all the info Matt. Via pm’s I now know that this isn’t what I need for my project so this great product is still up for grabs!
Does this have the ability to top up a leisure battery via the 12v dashboard socket, or does it have to be hard wired to a solar or alternator circuit?
I think he’s bought a folding suit case Solar panel so might be difficult to connect and disconnect all the time but could be done.
That might just be that Ozziedog hasn’t got a scooby, not the foggiest, what it does and if I need it in my set up. To be completely honest and fair, I spotted it but was clueless as to its purpose. Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,Although, that usually don’t stop me buying stuff
I even watched the video with me old mate in, possibly three times maybe more. I nodded off the first time, I tried a bit harder the second time, then after that I got a bit bored. Ozziedog,,,,,,,,Tooooo many big words
