Would make a good charger for a 48V battery bank - 13.8 X 4 = 55.2, so pretty spot on for maintaining a 48V SLA bank, or charging 12 series LiPo/Lico (4.2V X 12 = 50.4, can adjust these supplies +/- 10%) or 16 series LiFePo4.

I'd say its a very useful bit of gear for anyone running a 48V system.

Iv just started makin a gocart and it sounds like its going to be 48V+ maybe.
Ill stick it On the shelf untill i have something to run it on.
