EP10 charging solutions

This question is answered

Hi guys,

I have a dilema in pointing out some accesories for EP10: could someone tell me what do I need in order to charge the EP10 in my vehicle? I understand that for my AC outlet I need a snap-on module (USB or RS232) and a PS1050-G1,but for my vehicle what do I need?

Also,i dont`t see anywhere on PSION sites  a vehicle cradle for EP10,doesn`t exist?  If exists,what are the models?

And another thing,what is the difference between AC Adapter 110V-220V (P/N: PS1050-G1) and the AC Adapter-Brick (P/N:RV3055)?  When do I use one and when do I use another?

Mani thanks for support,

    You need the RV3050 - Vehicle Power Outlet Adaptor


    • Insert the DC power plug into the DC IN port at the base of a snap module – Model No. RV4001 or RV4002.
    • Insert the vehicle power outlet adaptor plug into the power outlet in your vehicle.

  •  WA4304-G2  is a quad docker for WAPG2/3 not for EP10. On quad dockers you can only change the terminals and there is no separate slots for battery charging.

    Will keep you posted

  • Hi Luke,

    What's the main difference b/w using PS1050-G1 and RV3050 in terms of charging time. Does both gives the same charging time? There is a perception that CLA charger RV3050 doesn’t charge the Battery as quick as Main wall charger PS1050-G1. From charging specification point of view are both same?

    Regards,

    Mazhar

  • Hi Mazhar,

    My personal take, the average charging time between the PS1050-G1 and RV3050 should almost be the same. In other words the charging time difference between these two chargers should be negligible.

    I am wondering if the EP10 is being subjected to elevated temperature environment while charging with the CLA power adapter.

  • Hi!

    Can WA4304-G2 (Quad Docking Station for EP10) charge spare baterries simultaneously with 4 EP10s?  

    Rodion

  • Hi Rodion,

    The WA4304-G2 is a WAP Quad Dock and not for the EP10.  For the EP10 there are two options:

    EP10 Quad Dock: RV4004

    EP10 Quad Battery Charger: RV3004

    Both can found here

    The road to the impossible has only to be traveled

  • Hi, Dave !

    Sorry, I asked about RV4004. It has no place for spare batteries, right?

    Rodion

  •  WA4304-G2  is a quad docker for WAPG2/3 not for EP10. On quad dockers you can only change the terminals and there is no separate slots for battery charging.

  • Thank you, MAZHAR!
