NOCO Genius GEN5X3 Smart Marine Battery Charger

Presenting the GEN5X3: our latest advancement in onboard marine battery chargers, embodying exceptional ruggedness, compactness, and power. Building upon the success of its predecessor, the GENM3, this model stands out with a 37% reduction in size yet delivers a remarkable 43% increase in charging capability. It represents a pinnacle achievement in our ongoing commitment to innovation and performance in marine electronics.

The GEN5X3 is engineered to charge and maintain up to three 12-volt batteries simultaneously, catering to various types including lead-acid (flooded, gel, AGM) and lithium-ion variants. Each battery bank is capable of delivering up to 5 amps of dedicated charging power, equipped not only to charge efficiently but also to function as a battery maintainer and desulfator. This versatility ensures optimal performance and longevity across marine, boat, starter, and deep-cycle battery applications.

Precision charging is a hallmark feature, facilitated by independent control of each battery bank with selectable modes such as 12V, 12V AGM, 12V Lithium, and a specialized 12V Repair Mode. This flexibility accommodates the specific needs of different battery chemistries, optimizing charging efficiency and extending battery life.

Adapting intelligently to environmental conditions, the GEN5X3 integrates a thermal sensor that monitors ambient temperature. This sensor dynamically adjusts the charging process to prevent over-charging in hot climates and under-charging in colder environments, ensuring safe and efficient operation under diverse conditions.

Innovative features include the ability to charge deeply discharged batteries, starting from as low as 1 volt. The newly introduced force mode provides manual control, enabling charging initiation from zero volts—a testament to its robust design and user-centric functionality.

Installation of the GEN5X3 is simplified with a redesigned mounting system that allows for versatile positioning, including upside-down installation. An integrated anti-vibration backing mitigates shock, vibration, and noise, ensuring stability and reliability in marine environments where these factors are critical.

Built to withstand the rigors of marine use, the GEN5X3 is fully sealed and waterproof, certified with an IP68 ingress protection rating. Rigorous life cycle testing, including prolonged submersion, validates its durability and resilience against water exposure, making it suitable for the most demanding marine applications.

Included in the package are the GEN5X3 15-amp 3-bank waterproof onboard marine battery charger, equipped with 120-240VAC compatibility. The unit features 72-inch DC cables with 3/8-inch eyelets for secure connections, complemented by a 72-inch Type-B AC cable for flexible installation options. Also provided are self-tapping mounting screws for straightforward installation, a comprehensive user guide for operational guidance, and a reassuring 3-year warranty.

In conclusion, the GEN5X3 sets a new benchmark as one of the most advanced onboard marine battery chargers available today. Its compact size, enhanced power delivery, precision charging capabilities, robust design for marine environments, and user-friendly features make it an indispensable choice for marine enthusiasts and professionals alike.
