FAQ

Q: Can the MXS 10 charge large vehicle batteries like those in trucks or RVs?
A: Yes, it’s ideal for large 12V batteries from 20Ah–200Ah and can maintain batteries up to 300Ah, making it perfect for RVs, trucks, and marine use.

Q: Is it suitable for AGM and Stop/Start batteries?
A: Absolutely. It has a dedicated AGM mode designed to maximize the life and performance of these modern battery types.

Q: What does the Recond mode do?
A: Recond mode is used to recover deeply discharged or sulphated batteries, helping to restore lost capacity.

Q: Can I use this as a power supply?
A: Yes, in Supply Mode, the MXS 10 provides a constant 12V, perfect for memory retention during battery changes or for powering 12V equipment.

Q: Is it safe to use in wet environments?
A: Yes, the unit has an IP65 rating, meaning it’s dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets.

• Fast and powerful charging: Ideal for charging and maintaining larger 12V lead-acid batteries and those found in high performance cars. The MXS 10 comes with a fitted temperature sensor for optimised charging in a wide range of weather conditions.
• Supply Mode: Can be used as a constant 12V power supply source, it will also make sure your vehicle's settings won't be lost if you need to remove the battery.
• Patented Desulphation Function and Reconditioning Mode: Unused batteries lose their power and their life is shortened through sulphation. The charger analyzes the state of the battery and, recovers the battery and its power. Reconditioning mode restores stratified and deeply discharged batteries.
• AGM Mode: Dedicated charge program for AGM batteries for a faster charge time and to maximise battery life.
• All Weather Charging: Fixed temperature sensor optimises charging regardless of the weather conditions
