Charger Einhell CE-BC 5 M 12 V 5 A

The Einhell CE-BC 5 M LiFePO4 charger is a compact 12 V, 5 A battery charger designed for modern vehicle batteries. It supports gel, AGM, maintenance-free and low-maintenance lead‑acid batteries as well as lithium‑iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. The charger uses microprocessor-controlled multi‑stage charging to adapt automatically to the connected battery, provides an LCD for voltage and charge‑status feedback, and features protection against overcharging, short circuit and reverse polarity. The device is dustproof and protected against water jets (IP65) and includes fully insulated battery terminals and a suspension eyelet for wall mounting.

Advantages

The charger automatically detects battery type and condition and selects the optimal charging mode, including force, reconditioning and power‑supply modes. A maintenance charging function preserves the battery at an ideal state of charge for extended service life, and a winter charging mode optimises charging at temperatures below 5 °C. The LCD clearly shows battery voltage, charging progress and error states, while triple protection prevents damage to the charger, battery and user.

Suitable for

• Cars with 12 V batteries
• Motorcycles and scooters
• Seasonal vehicles and machinery with long storage intervals
• Gel, AGM, maintenance‑free and low‑maintenance lead‑acid batteries
• Lithium‑iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries

How to use

Connect the fully insulated clamps to the battery terminals (red to positive, black to negative) and plug the charger into the mains. The charger will automatically detect the battery type and state and select the appropriate charging program; the LCD indicates the chosen mode and charging progress. Use force or reconditioning mode only when a deeply discharged battery requires revival. For stored vehicles, activate maintenance charging to keep the battery at optimal charge. Use the suspension eyelet to mount the unit on a wall if needed.

Recommendations

Always follow the vehicle and battery manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure correct polarity before switching on; do not use the charger on damaged batteries. For outdoor use in cold conditions, rely on the winter charging mode for temperatures below 5 °C. Unplug the charger when not in use and store it dry.
