Instock and ready to ship from our inventory in Long Beach, California.
We have the largest in-stock selection of IOTA Engineering battery chargers and
power products.
Why buy IOTA's?
IOTA Engineering's power products are the benchmark by which others are compared to.
IOTA products are built under the supervision of IOTA employees.
IOTA specifies, purchases and controls all of the electronic components to insure the highest quality.
IOTA power products are "burned in" (run at full amp rating) for twenty-four hours before
receiving their quality control labels.
If you have a technical question that we can not answer, you can call IOTA in Tucson, Arizona
and speak to a technical representative in Tucson - not a call center overseas.
This means that you buy it once and you will be happy in the long run.
The links to the left will easily take you to any of the items on this page.
We stock the following IOTA battery chargers:
12 volt:
DLS-30m , DLS-30m/IQ4 , DLS-45m , DLS-45m/IQ4 , DLS-55m,

The IOTA's are an excellent replacement for Todd Engineering converter / charger products.
IOTA power products carry a TWO year factory warranty.
Everything priced on this page is in stock, we ship Monday through Saturday from our inventory.
IOTA uses advanced switch mode technology to bring to market highly
sophisticated electronic battery chargers at an affordable price.
Durably built, these IOTA chargers have low line voltage, short circuit
and thermal protection.
These have a cooling fan comes on automatically when needed and
is proportional - the fan speed is determined by the load.
They quickly bring batteries up to full charge and maintain them with only
the needed amount of power.
The DLS chargers can output two voltages - a standard float voltage
and a quick charge voltage for rapid charging with a generator to reduce
the generator running time.
Quick charge plug included,
please click onto this link to see connection Control Plug
For owners of the earlier style of charger please click onto:
These chargers are designed to accept input voltages ranging
from 108 to 132 volts a.c. and from 47 to 63 cycles.
The DLS series is protected against low line voltage as well as
spikes coming from the a.c. source.
Radio and television interference is minimized.
The DLS is protected against improper wiring.
External fuses (standard ATC automotive type) can be easily changed.
The d.c. output block (lug ports) accepts up to 4 ga. heavy wire or cable.
To see how heavy the output block is and the simplicity of wiring please
click onto this link: Power Output Block
The DLS-75 has power cord plug which has a heavy duty 25 amp rating.
The output on IOTA chargers is designed to be hard wired (very simple)
to the battery(s).
These IOTA battery chargers can also be used as a stable d.c. power supply.
DLS chargers can be wired in series to increase voltage, or in parallel to increase amperage.
When wiring in series or parallel all chargers should be the same model.
THE BOTTOM LINE: if you want a top quality, heavy duty charger, from a company who cares about the customer, IOTA is the only choice.
My experience with IOTA has given us the confidence to stock most of their entire products line.

48 Volt
IOTA makes three different battery chargers for 48 volt battery
banks.
The first is the model DLS-54v-13m which has a 13 amp output and
comes with the high-voltage plug.
It also accepts the 54 volt IQ4 smart charge controller.
The second is the model DLS-54v-13m/IQ4 which has a 13 amp output
and has the IQ4 Smart Charge Controller built-in.
The third is the model DLS-54v-15m which has a 15 amp output.
This model does not accept the external IQ4 unit nor does it come
with the high voltage plug.
It is limited to 54 volts output and the modular jack on the housing is
not connected.
IOTA found that a 15 amp / 54 volt charger in the m series housing
could not handle the output wattage if the charger was outputting a
high equalizing charging voltage.
We do not stock these chargers but can special order one for you.
It takes two to three days from IOTA to us. We do not drop-ship from
IOTA to our customers.
We can also special order the IQ/4-54V smart controller.
Please call us for pricing and availability, if they have them on hand they
ship to us the same or next business day. If they are out, it can be one
week to four weeks for the next build to be completed.

IQ4 Smart Charge Controller
( IOTA part # F68876100 )
IQ4 smart charge controller for DLS battery
chargers:
![]() Includes a 12" cord with a modular
plug on each end to connect to your
DLS battery charger.
For a dimensional drawing please click
onto the following link:
Will work on the 12, 24 and 36 volt models of DLS chargers.
We also stock the 48 volt model - see below.
Take your DLS Battery Charger to the next level...
Reduced Charge Times
The Bulk Stage allows the batteries to be charged from the full rated
output of the DLS charger.
During this stage the batteries are recharged quickly to reduce
charge times
Increased Battery Capacity
After the Bulk Stage, the batteries are held in the Absorption Stage for
a controlled period, insuring a full and complete charge.
Reduced Battery Stress
During the Float Stage, the DLS charge voltage is reduced.
This minimizes gassing while maintaining a full charge at the nominal
rate of the battery.
Weekly Equalization for Longer Battery Life
If the batteries have not received a "smart charge" during a seven-day
period, the IQ Controller will switch the DLS charger into a
pre-programmed equalization stage to top off the batteries, dissolving
any sulfate layer on the battery's internal plates and avoiding stratification.
LED Indicator
The LED Indicator on the IQ4 informs the user as to the status of the
battery and the charging stage.
When first activated, the IQ4 will set itself for the voltage of your battery
system: 12, 24 or 36 volt .
After reading the battery, the IQ4 will initiate the charge phase that
is required.
The following voltages are approximate and are used for reference in
a 12 volt battery system.
You can double them for a 24 volt and triple them for a 36 volt system.
Initial bulk charge - the LED indicator flashes rapidly and the
DLS output is 14.76 volts (2.46 volts per cell).
Absorption charge - the LED indicator flashes slowly and the
DLS output is 14.16 volts (2.36 volts per cell).
Float charge - the LED indicator is solid and the
DLS output is 13.56 volts (2.26 volts per cell).
Please note: if you have an old style DLS battery charger, made prior
to 2004 and without the modular jack on top, the current IQ4 can not
be adapted for use with the old style units.

What is the difference between a DLS power converter and a DLS battery charger?
The DLS converters have a set output at 12 volts d.c.,
this will power 12 volt loads and appliances but will NOT
charge a battery.
The DLS battery chargers have a higher voltage, they will
operate your 12 volt loads and applicances (some ham radio
operators use them for power supplies) and will
also charge your batteries.
ALL of the DLS models we stock are battery chargers which will do both jobs.
If you have any questions, just call us at (562) 423-4879.

A note on bow fishing applications.
When choosing an IOTA DLS charger for use on a bow fishing boat
you should consider the capabilities of your generator.
Many generators have high wattage ratings but you should also look
at the amp rating of your 120 volt outlets.
It has come up in the past where a customer had a huge generator
but the outlets had 10 amp circuit breakers.
Once the halogen lights were plugged in, there was not enough capacity
in the circuit breakers to handle the battery chargers.
The amp draw on a 500 watt halogen light is about 4.25 amps.
The following are the input (120 volts a.c.) amp draws of some of the
IOTA DLS chargers at full output:
DLS-45m @ 11 amps
DLS-55m @ 12 amps
DSL-27-25m @ 12 amps
DLS-27-40 @ 20 amps
In some instances it may be necessary to check the owner's
manual on the generator for instructions on how to draw
120 volts a.c. from the 220/240 v.a.c. output.
Please click the back button on your browser to return
to the DLS model you were looking at.
Prices and specifications are subject to change without notice.
Both the IQ4 and Quick Charge plug fit into this receptacle on the current production IOTA chargers.

Early Style IOTA Chargers:
To raise the charging voltage to 14.2 volts on the earlyIOTA chargers without the plug-in control jack, just place a jumper wire
on these two screw terminals. This is recommended for use with a
generator to reduce the generator running time. It should NOT
be considered a permanent modification as long term charging
of a 12 volt battery at 14.2 volts can cause over-charging.
The IQ3 Smart Charge Control also uses these two screw terminals
and one of the power output lugs. They have instructions on the control
as to which wire goes where.
The IQ3 smart controller has been out of production since late 2005 and
the factory no longer has them.
Power output block - strip wire, insert and tighten screws.For a small maintenance type battery charger we recommend the
Battery Tender series which we no longer stock.

An important note on connecting DLS battery chargers in
parallel.
Do not connect two DLS chargers in parallel if one or both of them
has the built-in IQ4 smart charge controller.
Do not connect two DLS chargers in parallel if on or both of them
has the external IQ4 smart charge controller attached.
In either case, if one charger goes into turbo mode it's high
voltage output will damage the other charger.
The PARALLEL IQ4 controller operates both chargers together
in each charging stage.
