Charging Time Estimates

Approximate bulk charging time can be estimated by dividing battery capacity in amp-hours by the charger's 15A output. Actual charging time may be longer because of charging-current tapering and battery management functions.

• 36V 50Ah Battery: Approximately 3.3 to 3.5 hours from empty, plus taper or balancing time.
• 36V 100Ah Battery: Approximately 6.7 to 7 hours from empty, plus taper or balancing time.
• Higher-Capacity Batteries: Charging time increases according to battery capacity and starting state of charge.

Compatibility Notice

This charger is intended for compatible 36V LiFePO4 battery systems. Do not use it with lead-acid, AGM, gel, flooded, 12V, 24V, or 48V batteries unless Epoch specifically confirms compatibility for the exact battery and application.

Installation and Safety

Connect the ring terminals to the correct battery terminals and verify polarity before energizing the charger. Keep AC connections dry and properly protected even though the charger enclosure is IP67 rated. Use suitable wiring, terminal connections, and mounting methods for the complete installation.

This 36V 15A LiFePO4 battery charger provides dedicated lithium charging with up to 95% efficiency, IP67 protection, ring-terminal connections, aluminum thermal management, shock-resistant construction, and multiple automatic electrical safety protections.
