Safely charging batteries from a 230V socket
Do you work with batteries for e-bikes or cordless power tools and want to be sure everything is fully charged again for the next working day? Then this battery safe is a smart choice. The Batteryguard XL-20 ensures that the batteries are charged level by level, without overloading your electrical supply, even if you don’t have three-phase power.
By default fitted with European outlets, but we can also equip your battery safe with UK, French or Swiss sockets.

This is how the ElectrIQ smart charging system works with sequential charging
This battery safe charges in smart steps thanks to the ElectrIQ charging system. It starts with one level and only switches to the next when the first group of batteries is fully charged. This doesn’t happen at fixed times but based on the actual charge level. How this works is explained in the section How many chargers fit on one level?
At the Dutch bicycle retailer BikeTotaal, all e-bike and power tool batteries are placed in the safe at the end of the day. The next morning, everything is fully charged and ready to go.
How many chargers fit on one level? Here’s how to calculate it
On the label of each charger, the amperage is indicated, for example, 2A or 3.5A. By adding these values, you can quickly determine how many chargers you can connect to one level with 5 sockets.
Suppose you have chargers of 2A + 3A + 2.5A + 3.5A + 4A = exactly 16A. That fits perfectly on one level.
Note
In practice, you often stay well below this limit. E-bike battery chargers typically draw a maximum of 2A, and those for tools often range between 2 and 5A.

“Batteryguard XL meets the requirements of all insurers.”
