The TBS Electronics Automatic Charging Relay (TACR-160) is the intelligent solution for managing your onboard electrical system. Designed for marine and vehicle applications, it enables automatic charging of two 12V or 24V battery banks from a single source, such as your alternator.
At the same time, the relay ensures strict battery isolation to prevent the service bank from draining the starter battery. With a switching capacity of 160A, the relay is extremely robust and reliable.
An important safety feature is the emergency start function (Boost), which allows you to temporarily connect the battery banks for an additional starting boost. In addition, the TACR-160 can function as a remote-controlled DC switch. Upgrade your vehicle with this reliable battery combining system.
