Xantrex PathMaker Battery Combiners

[flyingwil]

Sierra Expeditions is please to announce that we are carrying the Xantrex PathMaker battery combiners.

PathMaker is a battery combiner that automatically connects 2 or 3 battery banks for simultaneous charging and isolates them during discharge. A toggle switch allows the user to manually parallel battery banks for emergency starting power. For use with 12 or 24-volt systems, PathMaker has user adjustable settings for connect and disconnect.

Product Features

• Automatic, high current switch for simultaneous two to three bank charging
• Connects batteries together when the voltage is sufficiently high and disconnects when voltage drops during discharge
• No voltage drop in charging voltage
• Manual connect feature for emergency starts
• Compatible with all charging sources
• Convenient front panel LED status indicators
• User-selectable connect and disconnect voltages
• One year warranty

Options

• Four models available
• Available in two or three battery bank versions with models at 100 and 250 Amps
• Optional Remote Control - indicates Off, Auto and Combine

We're expecting our shipment to arrive this week some where in the middle of the week!

Hope that helps.

Wil, if your going to mount the remote panel in the cab, can the battery combiner be mounted somewhere under the hood? I think I remember reading that BajaTaco was told that the control unit shouldn?t be exposed to the elements. Where would you recommend mounting the unit?

The only thing I saw in regards to exposing it to the elements (fire, water) is that it would void the Warranty.
