REDARC, a leader in ruggedised mobile battery management, charging, and off-grid power solutions have extended their capability into portable power.
Encompassing the 4WD, marine and outdoor recreational vehicle markets, GoBlock® can be used in a variety of applications that demand remote, vehicle and solar rechargeable portable power.
“GoBlock® is the culmination customer feedback and extensive market research relating to the constraints of existing 4WD dual battery systems. This highly engineered product features the latest in REDARCS’ proprietary DC charging technology which takes the guess work out of designing and building your own battery system” said Anthony Kittel, Managing Director.
Uniquely Australian made and born from a dedication to innovation, the REDARC GoBlock® taps into the growing demand for portable and off-grid rechargeable power. The difference, however, is this product is built tough for the outdoors and optimised to be ultrafast charged while you drive.
“I am excited for the owners of Ford Rangers and Mazda BT-50s among others who can’t fit a dual battery system under the bonnet, as this is the perfect solution” says Anthony Kittel.
With USB, accessory, Merit, fridge and Anderson outputs, GoBlock® is the ideal solution for charging smart devices, phones, cameras, drones, as well as powering lights, compressors, fridges and more.
Featuring lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery cells, GoBlock® offers 2000 cycles, some 4x greater cycle life than other brands on the market. The compact unit features an AC charger, DC charger, MPPT solar regulator, battery monitor and the lithium battery itself, all optimised to work flawlessly together and provide a portable auxiliary battery system no matter where you go.
With multiple charging options, GoBlock® can be charged via DC input from the vehicle’s alternator while driving, AC or solar while parked and can accept up to 50 Amps from any DC power source utilising REDARC’s trusted DC charging technology, making it capable of charging a 100 Amp hour lithium battery in 2 hours.
“Using Bluetooth, GoBlock® can connect to RedVision® our smartphone app that gives users access to the battery state of charge, system diagnostics, and input source information. This connection also allows GoBlock® to receive over-the-air software updates – the first product in our range to do so” Said Anthony Kittel
GoBlock® also includes a Start Battery Recovery (SBR) feature. This is unique to GoBlock® and when activated via the RedVision® app, it enables you to safely recover a flat start battery, so you can always get yourself or a friend out of trouble.
