130 dollars for the power supplies

Six dollars for the Tyco Relay
Eight Dollars for the Buck Module
Eight Dollars for the boost module
Eight dollars for the float module
Nine dollars for two constant current TO3 devices
Nine dollars for heat sinks for above
17 dollars on eBay for the 300 amp Shottky Rectifier
16 dollars for the on/on switches
Two dollars for Smaller Rectifiers
Twenty five dollars for the 12-hour timer
Thirteen dollars for the surplus new generator control panel
AC power wire (12 gauge) and plug
8 gauge charge leads and clamps.
Eleven dollars for 2 digital volt gauges
Fourteen Dollars for a 100 amp digital ammeter
Six dollars for 2 fans
Fourteen dollars for misc wire, terminals, shrink, etc.

Now go run and see how much a 60 amp Sears charger costs.

Some assembly required.

I get $304 before wire and plugs. For 66 Amp 15v custom master blaster battery charger for your big banks.

Chump change for an EE with an R&D budget, or someone with 100G's or more in their Class A, B or C unit. $59 for the guy with the 20k travel trailer, a free T-1275, and some 8 gauge wire and ring terminal ends laying around. It does come with a plug and an inline electrical switch BTW.

But it does the job, no questions asked. I do not know what the back current is that it draws off the battery when not plugged in, something to run the little green LED light. Makes a good pop when I first hook it up to the battery, with a spark at the terminal, before I warm up my generator and plug it in and turn it on.

Did you build one yet, or is this hypothetical? Pictures appreciated, once yours is completed.
