Split charger unit

[Ariadne]

Anybody know where I can lay my hands on one of these, as I blew mine up when I shorted it out (and a 250v fuse as well!)

Xantrex Pathmaker 250/2 - 12/24V Split Charging System (Combiner)

I've had google but only seem to find them in the US or there is one on Ebay for £175.00 plus P+P, but they are only $175.00 in the US so I'd like to find one for around the same price.

If you can point me in the direction of a UK supplier who'll post to Greece I'd be grateful.

I think so?
Not being to heavy into marine electronics, I was hoping for a like for like replacement. But I suppose anyone will work so long as does the job.

the cyrix is very easy to fit & as it senses both banks when you charge either bank it will "pull-in" the other.
i bought mine from Henry in Electronics @ Foxs Chandlery Ipswich, they have a web site & mail order.
they are not stockists but i got a good price

The Cyrix thing is one option

Sailorman is very keen on them ... I think he makes them in his back yard

But you would have to decide if the 200amp one was adequate or whether you would need the 400amp version.

Alternative would be a VSR of suitable rating from any of various sources.


Wont Xantrex ship to Greece?

What about Merlin Powerstore , will they?

Seems to the thing, I'm just checking around for 'cheap' suppliers.

Merlin will ship world wide, we've had stuff sent to us from them before, didn't think about contacting them.
The Pathmaker was rated at 250A so I think the Cyrix 200A-400A would do. So long as I have the split charger working I'm not fussed who supplies it.
