A 50A charger for big 12V lithium house banks. The Epoch 12V 50A Marine & RV Lithium Battery Charger refills large 12V LiFePO4 banks fast: about 50Ah every hour during bulk charging. It plugs into a 120V AC outlet or a properly sized generator, connects with ring terminals, and runs at up to 95% efficiency. The IP67 aluminum housing doubles as a heatsink and is built for RV, marine and mobile use.
๐ง Will It Work With Your Battery Bank?
A high-output 12V LiFePO4 charger with ring-terminal output. Epoch lists it for:
- RV house banks
- Marine house banks
- Van life builds
- Off-grid 12V banks
- Shore-power top-offs
- Generator charging
- Your battery or bank is 12V LiFePO4. It is not for AGM, flooded, gel, SLA or car starting batteries, or for 24V, 36V, 48V or 72V systems.
- Your battery or bank can accept at least 50A of charge current. Check the battery's max charge current before you order. Smaller single batteries often need a lower-amp charger like our 12V 15A.
- You have a 120V AC outlet, or a generator that puts out stable 120V AC and is sized for the load.
- Your battery has terminals that accept the charger's ring terminals.
Why Go With 50 Amps
Fast Bulk Charging
About 50Ah per hour. A 200Ah bank takes about 4 hours from empty, before tapering.
Less Generator Runtime
Puts more charge back per hour than small converters, so you can run your generator for less time.
Built for LiFePO4
A charge profile made for 12V lithium iron phosphate batteries, not lead-acid.
IP67 Rated
Dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion up to 1 m for 30 minutes. Not rated for water jets or pressure washing.
Seven Protections
Overtemperature, ambient temperature, reverse polarity, overcharge, output overvoltage, output overcurrent and output short-circuit.
Rugged Aluminum Housing
The aluminum alloy case acts as a heatsink, rated from -40ยฐC to 60ยฐC, with a shock-resistant build for RV, marine and mobile use.
โฑ๏ธ How Long Does a Charge Take?
| Battery bank | Approx. bulk time from empty |
|---|---|
| 12V 100Ah | About 2 hours |
| 12V 200Ah | About 4 hours |
| 12V 300Ah | About 6 hours |
| 12V 460Ah | About 9.2 hours |
| Other sizes | Bank Ah รท 50 = hours |
Epoch's estimates before tapering and any BMS charge-current limits. A battery that isn't empty finishes sooner.

๐ Charging Made Simple
Ring Terminal Connection
Attach the ring terminals to your battery or bank, positive to positive and negative to negative. Reverse polarity protection is built in.
Shore Power or Generator
Plug into 120V AC at a campsite or marina, or into a generator with stable 120V output that's sized for the load.
Check Your Charge Limit
Make sure your battery or bank accepts at least 50A. Larger banks spread the current across batteries.
Leaving It Connected
It has overcharge protection, but follow your battery maker's storage and long-term guidance at the marina or campsite.
๐ก๏ธ 2-Year Limited Charger Warranty
Epoch-branded chargers are covered for 2 years from the original purchase date. You pay shipping to and from Epoch on charger claims. Full terms at epochbatteries.com.
