Workshop Battery Chargers

Durst workshop battery chargers are made for workshops, transport fleets and mining sites. The range covers 12/24V chargers from 25A to 100A, a 12V 80A two channel charger that handles two batteries at once, and a 16A 96V industrial gang charger. Start with your system voltage, then choose the charge current that suits your battery size and turnaround time.

How to Choose a Workshop Battery Charger


Check the voltage of the battery system first, because the charger must match it. Then look at charge current. A higher amp rating charges faster, but always stay within the battery manufacturer's recommended charge rate. If you charge more than one battery at a time, the two channel BCD-1280B or the BC-1696 gang charger may suit better than a single output unit.

What is a workshop battery charger?

A workshop battery charger is a charger built for regular use on vehicle and equipment batteries in commercial settings. Durst workshop chargers cover 12/24V, 12V and 96V systems, with charge currents from 16A to 100A.

What amp battery charger do I need for a workshop?

It depends on battery size and how quickly you need it charged. Higher amp chargers, such as the 80A BC-460T-V2 and 100A BC-6100T, suit larger batteries and faster turnaround. The 25A BC-325-24 suits lighter duty. Always follow the battery manufacturer's recommended charge rate.

Can one charger charge both 12V and 24V batteries?

Yes. The BC-325-24, BC-460T-V2 and BC-6100T are all 12/24V chargers. Confirm the battery voltage before connecting.

What is a two channel battery charger?

A two channel battery charger has two charging outputs, so it can charge two batteries from one unit. The Durst BCD-1280B is a 12V 80A two channel charger.

What is an industrial gang charger?

A gang charger is an industrial unit for higher-voltage battery systems. The Durst BC-1696 is a 16A 96V industrial gang charger.

What is the difference between a battery charger and a jump starter?

A battery charger restores a battery's charge over time. A jump starter delivers a short burst of power to start an engine. If you need to start a flat vehicle, see our jump starters.
