Merlin M-Power Battery Equaliser — 24V to 12V, 60A / 80A / 100A
Tap 12 V loads from a 24 V bank without unbalancing it. The equaliser holds both 12 V halves of the bank at exactly the same state of charge, handles surge loads that would need an oversized DC-DC converter, and extends battery life. 60 A, 80 A and 100 A continuous.

Fair price check
Our price is the manufacturer's home-market RRP — what this gear sells for where it's made. Branded marine equipment in Thailand typically retails 15–90% above that, when prices are published at all. Ours doesn't.
About this product
Trucks, buses, fire appliances, military vehicles and larger boats run 24 V systems but still need plenty of 12 V power for radios, lighting and electronics. Taking that power from one battery of the pair slowly destroys the bank. The M-Power Equaliser draws the 12 V load across both batteries so they stay at precisely the same state of charge — and because it is an equaliser rather than a converter it can pass high surge currents without being oversized.
Size the unit at 10–20% above your continuous 12 V load. Three ratings cover everything from a comms fit-out to a full 12 V sub-system on a 24 V vessel.
