Invicta SNLC12V40 12V 40A Lithium Battery Charger RCM Certified

Invicta SNLC12V40 12V 40A Lithium Battery Charger RCM Certified

The SNLC12V40 is a 12V 40A lithium battery charger with a multi-stage charging algorithm, automatic wake-up mode, backlit LCD display, and Anderson and alligator clip connectors. 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 SNLC12V40 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 SNLC12V40 is built specifically to prevent this.

The automatic wake-up mode 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 backlit LCD display provides clear, easy-to-read status information during the charging process. The fan-driven cooling system manages internal operating temperatures during sustained high-current charging cycles.

Invicta recommends using Invicta lithium chargers with Invicta batteries to ensure the charge profile matches the battery specification and to maintain warranty coverage. The SNLC12V40 is RCM certified, confirming it has undergone rigorous safety testing for use with AC power supplies in Australia.

Frequently asked questions

Is the SNLC12V40 compatible with all Invicta 12V lithium batteries?
The SNLC12V40 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.

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 SNLC12V40 is built specifically to match the Invicta lithium charge profile, ensuring accurate voltage delivery at each stage of the charge cycle. Invicta only warrants the battery when used with a charger that includes a dedicated lithium charge profile.

What does the automatic wake-up mode do on the SNLC12V40?
The automatic wake-up mode 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.

What is the difference between the SNLC12V40 and the IP67 HD charger models?
The SNLC12V40 is the standard 12V 40A lithium charger with a backlit LCD display and fan-driven cooling. The IP67 HD models feature a heavy duty enclosure with IP67 ingress protection, mounting points, and an LED status indicator instead of an LCD display, designed for use in wet or dusty environments. IP67 HD models are currently available in 24V and 48V variants.

Can the SNLC12V40 be used to charge non-Invicta lithium batteries?
The SNLC12V40 may be compatible with other 12V lithium batteries provided the charger's output voltage and charge profile match the battery's requirements. Confirm the charge profile match with the battery manufacturer before use. Contact us for further guidance.
