Samlex
Iota
Powerstream
Progressive Dynamics
Victron

Just to name a few and you can look in the Marine and RV markets and find them. Even some golf carts, e-bikes, and wheel chairs use them. But you have to find those yourself.

I just bought a 40amp, 24v IOTA. I'm a rookie just starting up the learning curve but that charger is the one I came up with after snooping around and getting some advice. I have 4 golf cart batteries in series. Heres where I got the charger, very nice folks to deal with http://www.boatandrvaccessories.com/...y-charger.html. Mine should arrive in a few days.

Did you get the IQ4 option which gets you 3 levels of charging voltages?
