Balmar MaxCharge MC-618 12V Voltage Regulator

Description

Balmar’s new MaxCharge MC-618 12 volt marine voltage regulators feature custom-selectable preset programs for nine battery technologies – standard flooded; deep-cycle flooded; gel; AGM; spiral-wound; LiFePO4; and Carbon Foam AGM – plus a default factory safe program and a separate program for vessels with voltage sensitive halogen systems. Advanced programming mode adds even greater user control.

Balmar has upgraded its legendary MC-614 Voltage Regulator to communicate with the SG200 Battery Monitor!  Now you can see how the New MC-618 Regulator is directing your alternator charging activity from either the SG200 2″ Color Display and/or the optional Bluetooth^® Smartphone App.  Basic setup functions can be accomplished from the SG200 Color Display, Smartphone App or the traditional on-regulator programming tool.  Advanced Programming functions are available and easily configured from the Bluetooth^® Smartphone App.
