Customer Reviews
Instalation instructions where easy to follow.
The Zeus can be adjusted with the app to adjust the charging parameters.
Enclosed picture of gx device show a lot of solar going into batteries so the Zeus is providing enough amps to max out 300 amps going into batteries. If I was using more ac devices the alternator will increase output . Temperature sensor included with Zeus allows it to reduce output until alternator cools down.
The Yacht Rigger team, mainly Andre and Bob, did an excellent installation on the two ARCO Zeuses for our Balmar Alternators on our Great Harbour N-37 Trawler. The alternators are on our mammoth twin Yanmar diesels (54 HP each)(Ha!).
The dedication of the Yacht Rigger team to make everything work perfectly was very much appreciated.
Even better was the final result. Even with our Yanmars running at only 2000 RPMs, our output to the lithium battery bank was easily 145-150 amps plus the 25-30 amps to run our ambient electrical draw. This is well over twice what we were getting with our MC 618s and centerfielder.
What an amazing increase. Wooo Hooo! Very happy customer!
This product really out performs itself, it may be small but what a big difference it makes to my over all power!
Thanks for the feedback, Gary! Enjoy making power from your existing engine!
