"The Auto Charge LPC 40 is a redesigned enhanced model. This new 40 amp charger is especially designed for Emergency Vehicles and the challenges they face relating to charging properly. This charger has many new features but one in particular is a patented technology, PLC (Parasitic Load Compensation). Almost every emergency vehicle has many parasitic loads on their systems (flashlights, gas detectors, computers, thermal imaging cameras and other items) which can trick a standard 3-Step charger into over charging the batteries. Parasitic Load Compensation (PLC) allows you to input the total number of parasitic load amps on the vehicle.The charger will then shift the absorption stage set point so the battery voltage will drop to the float voltage when the desired current is reached. In short, the parasitic loads are effectively invisible to the charger. This will lead to longer battery life and no overcharging or overheating."
