Won about 20 or so electrical boxes with two Meanwell HEP-600C-48 adjustable chargers in each one from an auction recently before quickly realizing I dont have a use for more than maybe 2 boxes, am just trying to recoup some of my costs now. These are brand new, never used, never installed but were taken out of the cardboard boxes they came in for transportation as they were very very bulky.

Ive attached the spec sheet below but some of the quick specs are:

42.5-62.5v output
0-10.5 amps
85-277vac and 120-390vdc input
93.5% efficiency

some further info:
current and voltage values are adjustable via two pots
fully potted and sealed aluminum case, IP66 (or IP67, dont remember off the top of my head) rated
passively cooled

Since you could easily mount one of the boxes to the side of your house one possible usecase would be to use it as something akin to an ev charger but for bikes/other pevs. I personally am going to stick two (or maybe four) on my bike since they are completely sealed and theres no need to worry about water ingress, I have successfully hooked two up in series to charge my 28s liion pack, would work up to ~124v. Have not tried anything more than that though.


Anyways, am asking $120 per charger, or $220 for the entire box with two inside

Updated, asking $110 per or $200 per box (negotiable), would prefer not to ship boxes as they arent the lightest nor most compact but we can work something out. Am local to the Bay Area. Think thats a fair price at least since they are $243.20 on digikey...

If anyone has any questions feel free to reach out and ask!


Also apologies for the poor image quality, my phone is not the greatest...

The Meanwell site lists these as 3-stage lead-acid battery chargers, so before you hook them up to your stuff make sure that will work with them. If you need a straight up CC/CV source, they may not behave the same as you want.

I noticed that as well but the datasheet states that they are also intended for liion/lifepo4. Also when I did my couple of charging tests I didnt notice any strange behaviour, behaved exactly like a standard cc/cv charger would. Thanks for bringing it up regardless though!

meanwell chargers can be program for 2 stage charging for lithium type batteries.
 
Bump and price drop to 110 per or a box for 200!

EDIT: Oops did not realize I already bumped it to lower than this 😅, Previous pricing still applies.
