Which NOCO Battery Charger should I choose?

For maintaining a single car, motorcycle or leisure battery, the portable Genius range is the natural starting point. Choose the Genius1 for small batteries up to 30Ah such as motorcycles or classic cars, the Genius2 or Genius5 for typical car and van batteries up to 40Ah or 120Ah respectively, and the Genius10 for larger automotive or marine batteries up to 230Ah. If you want a charger that stays wired in permanently — ideal for a vehicle in storage or a boat — the Genius2D is designed to be fixed in place in the engine bay or bilge; note it is a 12V lead-acid-only model.

If you need to charge more than one battery at a time, the Genius2X2 handles two banks and the Genius2X4 handles four, each delivering 2A per bank. For professional or workshop use requiring higher outputs or 24V support, the GeniusPRO25 and GeniusPRO50 deliver up to 25A and 50A respectively and cover batteries up to 2,000Ah.
