🔋 12/24 V · 40 A 🚐 Charging from the alternator 🔁 12-12 · 12-24 · 24-12 · 24-24 V ⚙️ 96.4% efficiency 🏭 Made in Türkiye

The Havensis DCDC-1224 is a one-way DC-DC battery charger designed especially for caravans. This model works with a 40 A charging current; it accepts a 10–35 V input, delivers a 12–32 V output and has a conversion efficiency of 96.4%.

While the vehicle runs, the alternator charges the starter battery; the caravan's fridge, lights and water pump run from a second battery, the house battery. Linking the two batteries directly also drains the starter battery when parked; a simple relay often cannot charge the house battery fully, and long cables lose voltage.

A DC-DC battery charger sits between the two batteries: it takes the energy from the alternator and passes it to the house battery in a controlled way. Because it can charge 12-12, 12-24, 24-12 and 24-24 V, your house battery can be 12 V or 24 V whether your vehicle is 12 V or 24 V.

Engine-off detection recognises when the vehicle stops and blocks reverse current, so the starter battery is not drained for the house battery while parked. All parameters are programmed from the display; because the digital display connects with a 5 m extension cable, you can mount it inside the caravan while the unit sits next to the batteries.

The unit is made in Türkiye by Havensis. We ship it anywhere in Türkiye and offer optional on-site installation in the Antalya region.

Applications

## Where is it used?

Anywhere a second battery in a vehicle needs charging from the alternator on the road.

🚐

### Caravans and motorhomes

Fills the house battery from the alternator on the road; when you reach camp, the battery is ready for the fridge, lights and water pump.

⛵

### Boats and yachts

Charges the service battery while the engine runs; the starter battery stays ready to start the engine.

🚑

### Service and work vehicles

Charges the second battery while the engine runs in ambulances, mobile sales, camper and workshop vehicles.

🚚

### 24 V trucks and buses

Charges a 12 V (24-12) or 24 V (24-24) house battery in a 24 V vehicle, so your 12 V devices need no separate converter.

Installation

## How is it connected?

The unit is connected between the starter battery and the house battery; the digital display can be placed inside the caravan with its 5 m cable.

- ⚙️ **Alternator**While the engine runs
- 🔋 **Starter battery**12/24 V
- 🔁 **DC-DC charger**DCDC-1224
- 🔋 **House battery**12/24 V
- 🏕️ **Caravan devices**Fridge, lights, pump

📟 The digital display connects to the unit with a 5 m extension cable, so charging is monitored and programmed from inside the caravan.

- 1 ### Connect the input Connect the unit's input to the starter battery, with a suitable fuse close to the battery.
- 2 ### Connect the output Connect the output to the house battery, again with a fuse close to the battery.
- 3 ### Place the display Put the digital display where you can see it using the 5 m cable, and program the charging values for your house battery.
- 4 ### Start the engine Charging happens while the engine runs; when the engine stops, the unit detects it and protects the starter battery.

**Installation tips**

- Mount the unit close to the batteries in a ventilated, dry place and keep cable runs short.
- Choose cable size and fuses to match the model's current; because of losses, the input line carries slightly more current than the output.
- Check that your alternator can handle the extra load; for newer vehicles with smart alternators, ask us.
- We recommend having an auto electrician install it; send us your system diagram on WhatsApp and we'll check it together.

Choosing a model

## Which model should I choose?

Your choice depends on your house battery capacity and whether you need to support the starter battery.

| Model | Type | Charging current | Boost | Input | Output | Efficiency | Size |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| DCDC-1224-30 | One-way | 30 A | — | 10–35 V | 12–32 V | 96.4% | 158 × 210 × 60 mm |
| DCDC-1224-40 This product | One-way | 40 A | — | 10–35 V | 12–32 V | 96.4% | 162 × 210 × 70 mm |
| DCDC-1224B-40 | Bidirectional | 40 A | 10 A | 10–35 V | 12–32 V | 96.4% | 162 × 210 × 70 mm |

- If charging the house battery on the road is enough and your drives are long: DCDC-1224 30 A.
- For a large house battery or faster charging on short drives: DCDC-1224 40 A.
- For vehicles parked for long periods with a weakening starter battery, or to let a solar-charged house battery support the starter battery: the bidirectional DCDC-1224B.

Frequently Asked Questions

## Frequently asked

### Why do I need a DC-DC charger; can't I just link the batteries directly?

A direct link also drains the starter battery when parked; simple relays often cannot charge the house battery fully, and long cables lose voltage. A DC-DC charger separates the two batteries and charges the house battery in a controlled way.

### Which vehicles is it for?

Vehicles with 12 V and 24 V systems. The unit can charge 12-12, 12-24, 24-12 and 24-24 V: for example, it can charge a 12 V house battery in a 24 V truck.

### Does the starter battery drain when the engine stops?

No. Engine-off detection recognises that the vehicle has stopped and blocks reverse current; the starter battery is not used for the house battery.

### How long does it take to charge my house battery?

Roughly battery capacity ÷ charging current: an empty 100 Ah battery is largely charged after about 2.5–3 hours of driving at 40 A. The last part charges more slowly depending on the battery type.

### Which battery types does it work with?

Since all parameters are programmed from the display, the charging values are set for your house battery. Send us your battery type and charging values and we'll check compatibility together before you order.

### Where does the display go?

The digital display connects to the unit with a 5 m extension cable. While the unit sits next to the batteries, you place the display inside the caravan where you can see it, and monitor and program the charging from there.

### Should I choose 30 A or 40 A?

If your house battery is large or your drives are short, the 40 A model fills the battery faster. When choosing, also consider whether your alternator can handle the extra load and the cable size.

### Should I get the one-way or the bidirectional model?

If you only want to charge the house battery on the road, the one-way DCDC-1224 is enough. If your vehicle is often parked for long periods, or you want a solar-charged house battery to support the starter battery too, choose the bidirectional DCDC-1224B.

### Can I monitor it from my phone?

Havensis Bluetooth and Wi-Fi monitoring modules can be fitted to this unit, letting you follow all its values on your phone. The module is not included; ask us for the price.

### Who installs it, and do you ship outside Antalya?

We ship anywhere in Türkiye; an auto electrician can do the installation. In the Antalya region we offer optional on-site installation.

**Is your battery bank 36–72 V?**

To charge a high-voltage battery bank from a 12/24 V vehicle battery, see our BOOST DC-DC charger.
