Features
Onboard Battery Charger (2 Banks/10 Amps): The Noco Genius2X2 is a 4-amp battery charger for charging, desulfating, trickle-charging, and maintaining up to two 6-volt or 12-volt Marine, Automotive, or Deep-Cycle batteries, providing up to 2-amps for each bank with a 40Ah capacity range. The Genius2X2 can provide safe, fast and efficient charging without the worry of overcharging.
Compatible Battery Types: The Genius2X2 battery charger and maintainer is suitable for charging all types of 12V lead-acid batteries - including Wet Cell (Flooded), Gel Cell, AGM, and 12V lithium-ion batteries. The Genius2X2 charger can be used on battery sizes up to 40Ah, and can maintain all battery sizes.
Ultra-Rugged Construction: The Genius2X2 is designed to operate in extreme conditions and features a shock- and vibration-resistant rugged design. The Genius2X2 carries an IP60 weatherproof rating and is backed by a 3 Year Warranty.
Efficient, Compact Design: A mix of electrical engineering & industrial design create a powerful, yet space-efficient charger that can be mounted near your craft or equipment. It uses high-frequency switch-mode technology to efficiency convert AC power into safe DC power for battery charging. And it's onboard microcomputer precisely controls the charging to minimize power loss to create an incredibly compact form factor.
Protection Circuitry: The Genius2X2 is a non-igniting and temperature-controlled battery charger for safe and worry-free operation. Its built-in redundant levels of safety protection protect against adverse and abnormal conditions - like reverse polarity, overcharging, bad batteries, and overheating. Four front-panel Error LEDs will provide a visual indication for each error.
Intelligent Maintenance Technology: Most manual, automatic or semi-automatic battery chargers continuously trickle charge batteries, making them susceptible to overcharge, which limits battery life. Noco's intelligent battery maintenance technology monitors battery activity and only begins charging when needed. An integrated thermal sensor detects the ambient temperature and alters the charge to eliminate over-charging in hot climates (up to 104°F) and under-charging in cold climates (down to -4°F). The charger can be left connected to the battery indefinitely.
Force Mode: Noco's new start-voltage sensor allows the Genius Genius2X2 charger to detect and charge dead batteries as low as 1 volt. For batteries lower than 1 volt, the charger's Force Mode can be activated and will charge batteries down to 0 volts.
Charging Modes: With the Noco Genius2X2, you can simply push of a button to switch between various charging modes within one, complete multi-purpose battery charger.
- 12V (14.5V/2A): For charging 12-volt Wet Cell, Gel Cell, Enhanced Flooded, Maintenance-Free and Calcium batteries. When selected, the white 12V LED will illuminate.
- 12V AGM (14.8V/2A): For charging 12-volt advanced AGM batteries. When selected, the white 12V AGM LED will illuminate.
- 12V Lithium (14.6V/2A): For charging 12-volt Lithium-ion batteries, including Lithium iron phosphate. When selected, the blue 12V Lithium LED will illuminate. For use on batteries with Battery Management Systems (BMS) only.
- 6V (7.2V/2A/Up to 40Ah): For charging 6-volt wet cell, gel cell, enhanced flooded, maintenance-free, and calcium batteries. When selected, the white 6V LED will illuminate.
- Standby (No Power): In standby mode, the charger is not charging or providing any power to the battery. Energy Save is activated during this mode, drawing microscopic power from the electrical outlet. When selected, the orange Standby LED will illuminate.
Charging Times: The time required for the Genius2X2 to charge a normally discharged battery is shown below. Deeply discharged batteries may take longer to charge depending on the depth of discharge (DOD). The charge time is based on an average depth of discharge to a fully charged battery.
Battery Size (Ah)- | Approximate Time to Charge in Hours | |
---|---|---|
6V | 12V | |
8 | 3 | 3 |
12 | 4.5 | 4.5 |
18 | 6.75 | 6.75 |
24 | 9 | 9 |
40 | 15 | 15 |
Note: The above table is for reference purposes only. Actual data may differ due to battery conditions. The time required to charge a normally discharged battery is based on an average DOD of 50%.
Charge LEDs: The charger has four Charge LEDs (25, 50, 75, &100%). This Charge LED indicates the connected battery's state-of-charge (SOC).
- The 25% Charge LED will slowly pulse when the battery is less than 25% fully charged. When the battery is 25% charged, the red Charge LED will be solid.
- The 50% Charge LED will slowly pulse when the battery is less than 50% fully charged. When the battery is 50% charged, the red Charge LED will be solid
- The 75% Charge LED will slowly pulse when the battery is less than 75% fully charged. When the battery is 75% charged, the orange Charge LED will be solid.
- The 100% Charge LED will slowly pulse when the battery is less than 100% fully charged. When the battery is fully charged, the green LED will be solid, and the 25%, 50% and 75% Charge LEDs will turn off.
- During maintenance charging, the 100% Charge LED will pulse slowly. When the battery is topped off and fully charged again, the 100% Charge LED will turn solid green.
Mounting & Installation: The Genius2X2 has two external holes for surface-mounting (screws included). It is important to keep in mind the distance to the battery(s). The Genius2X2 is outfitted with two attached 12" charging output cables terminated with 2-pin connectors with dust caps. Two 2' power & ground cables plug into the charging output cables on one end, and attach to your battery terminals on the other end using the attached battery clamps. Two 10' power/ground extension cables can be plugged inbetween the clamp cables and the charger output cables for up to 13' of charging cable. A 6' AC power cable is provided for plugging into a standard AC outlet. The AC power cord is terminated by an IEC 3-prong AC plug.

Perfect for my needs! I use it to charge either or both cars when not driving for more than a week or so. Also, keep both cars charged when on vacation.
