DC charging systems
Direct Current (DC) That's what a battery provides - DC Power. DC chargers use battery power to recharge other batteries. Examples of this would be using a start battery to charge a house/service battery. Or more specifically the vehicle's alternator which charges the start battery, but then the DC charger amplifies the voltage to provide the correct voltage to the house battery which might also be a different type of battery to the start battery. For instance, a start battery that a wet cell can happily charge at 13.5 volts but a much larger house battery that's an AGM technology might require 14.7v for a much longer period than what an alternator will maintain a steady 13.5 volts for.
That is why we need DC charging systems or DC to DC chargers these days with modern vehicles because a vehicle's alternator doesn't operate as it used to 20 years ago and it's even more important with Euro 5 & Euro 6 vehicles.

Battery to Battery Chargers (B2BC) has grown significantly in demand as the Euro 5 and Euro 6 engines work hard to reduce emissions. This has led to smart alternators only being on for short periods of time-saving on fuel efficiency. The side effect has been underperforming charging on secondary batteries (house batteries). The battery to battery chargers forces the charge from the start battery to the house battery which forces the alternator on to correctly supply current to your equipment and assist with the charging and supply of energy process. The 4 stage charge profile ensures a safe and quick charge into your secondary battery with temperature compensated charging, regeneration brake friendly DC input ranges and 9 preset battery chemistry options on output for AGM, LiFePO4, Gel flooded and sealed lead acid.
