Invicta SNLC12V20 12V 20A Lithium Battery Charger RCM Certified

Invicta SNLC12V20 12V 20A Lithium Battery Charger RCM Certified

The SNLC12V20 is a 12V 20A lithium battery charger with a lithium charge profile, multi-stage charging algorithm, automatic wake-up feature, and Anderson and alligator clip connectors. Australian RCM certified and backed by a 12-month warranty, it is purpose-built to match the Invicta lithium charge profile for 12V lithium battery systems.

Product overview

The Invicta SNLC12V20 is purpose-built to deliver the precise voltage and current profile required by Invicta 12V lithium batteries across each stage of the charge cycle. A multi-stage charging algorithm applies lithium-specific charging technology to maximise battery life and ensure accurate voltage delivery throughout the full charge sequence. Using an AGM or SLA charger on a lithium battery may cause harm by delivering incorrect voltage, and the SNLC12V20 is built specifically to prevent this.

The automatic wake-up feature allows the charger to recover deeply discharged lithium batteries that have fallen below the standard charge initiation threshold, restoring them to a chargeable state before standard charging resumes. A fan-driven cooling system manages internal operating temperatures during sustained charging cycles. The Anderson and alligator clip connectors provide flexible connection options across different battery terminal configurations.

Invicta recommends using Invicta lithium chargers with Invicta batteries to ensure the charge profile matches the battery specification and to maintain warranty coverage. Before using a third-party charger with an Invicta battery, confirm that the charger's specification sheet matches the battery's charge requirements and that the charger includes a dedicated lithium charge profile.

Features and benefits

12V 20A lithium charge profile: Purpose-built with a lithium charge profile matched to Invicta 12V lithium batteries, ensuring accurate and efficient charging across the full charge cycle without overcharging or undercharging the cells.

Technical specs

Frequently asked questions

Is the SNLC12V20 compatible with all Invicta 12V lithium batteries?
The SNLC12V20 is purpose-built for use with Invicta 12V lithium batteries and is matched to the Invicta lithium charge profile. Contact us to confirm compatibility with your specific Invicta 12V battery model before purchasing.

What is the difference between the SNLC12V20 and the SNLC12V40?
Both are standard 12V lithium chargers with a multi-stage charging algorithm and automatic wake-up feature. The SNLC12V40 delivers a higher charge current of 40A compared to 20A on the SNLC12V20, making the SNLC12V40 better suited to larger battery capacities or faster recharge requirements.

What is the difference between the SNLC12V20 and the SNLC12V20HD?
The SNLC12V20HD is the heavy duty IP67 rated version of the 12V 20A charger, designed for installation in wet or dusty environments with a fan-assisted heat sink and dedicated mounting points. The SNLC12V20 is the standard model suited to sheltered or indoor charging applications.

Why should I use a lithium-specific charger instead of an AGM or SLA charger?
AGM and SLA chargers may not deliver the correct voltage required for lithium batteries and can cause damage to the cells over time. The SNLC12V20 is built specifically to match the Invicta lithium charge profile. Invicta only warrants the battery when used with a charger that includes a dedicated lithium charge profile.

What does the automatic wake-up feature do on the SNLC12V20?
The automatic wake-up feature allows the charger to detect and recover deeply discharged lithium batteries that have fallen below the standard charge initiation voltage. This restores the battery to a state where normal multi-stage charging can resume.
