Keep your trailer’s auxiliary battery charged while you drive with the REDARC BCDC1212T 12A DC-to-DC trailer battery charger. Designed for dump trailers, tipper trailers, liftgates, boat trailers, winches, and hydraulic pump systems, this charger connects through the trailer plug and delivers controlled three-stage charging. It helps protect the tow vehicle’s starting battery from discharge while charging the secondary battery to full state of charge, reducing the need for frequent mains charging.
The REDARC BCDC1212T is compatible with 12- or 24-volt vehicles and supports a wide range of battery chemistries, including standard lead-acid, calcium, gel, AGM, and lithium LiFePO4 batteries. Its 12-amp input-limited design provides reliable charging for auxiliary battery banks while the vehicle is in motion. The charger is supplied with a pre-wired harness to simplify installation in a typical trailer battery system where charging power is supplied through a suitably rated 12-volt auxiliary circuit in the trailer plug and towing harness.
Installation is straightforward, with the charger designed to fit in a trailer nose cone without requiring heavy wiring. For safe and efficient operation, REDARC offers dedicated fuse kits, including a 23-amp input fuse kit and a 30-amp output fuse kit for the BCDC1212T. The sealed construction helps protect against dust and water ingress, while the unit is engineered for dependable operation in extreme heat up to 176°F. Australian-made and built by REDARC, the BCDC1212T is a practical charging solution for demanding trailer and powersports applications.
