DPI Chargers
So I thought all DPI chargers completely bypassed the OBC, but I'm seeing a 15 amp that utilizes the OBC and a 17 amp one that doesn't.
My question is, how does the DPI utilize the OBC if it's supposedly an independent 'smart' charger? |

Re: DPI Chargers
My understanding is that they make replacement chargers for stock carts with the obc and stand alone chargers. Just pick the type you want.

Re: DPI Chargers
Yeah that makes sense. The one I am looking at is model number 1-48C017, which I believe is the one that is a standalone.

Re: DPI Chargers
I love the float mode that the PD chargers do not have. Would be great for over the winter. I hate to get rid of my perfectly good PD system though...

Re: DPI Chargers
you can always sell the PD to get back some of your money. No reason to buy a DPI that still uses the OBC IMP

I don't see a reason either, you would be SOL if the OBC ever went out, just like you would be with the PD charger. |
