If I'm charging two 36v lead acid batteries & one 40v lithium ion battery, is there a certain type of surge protector power strip I need to use?

I commonly charge two 36v lead batteries at the same time using separate electrical outlets. I don't know anything about charging lithium batteries.

For 36V, the charger will only supply 12.5A. I believe it's the same for 48V.

Actually you do not need a battery backup for these items. A high quality Surge strip will cover them. The Battery Backups are really meant for computers, phone systems and medical devices that need to stay on during a brief power outage. I use one in my office for the Cable Modem (voice and internet), the Router, my main office PC, and the cordless phone base. I have a couple of these 350's in another office on the phone CPE (basically a modem), the phone switch and internet router. If you do get one think about what gets plugged into the battery side and what is on the surge protected side.

About any of the led strip supplies will work for this / these. I use the ones that look like PC lap top supplies. Lighting EVER® Power Adaptor, Transformers, Power Supply For LED Strip, 12V, 3A Max, 36 Watt Max . These are about $10.00 each. You will need about 30watts (<3 Amps) per strip. I have found the supplied controller will drive at least 2 strips pretty well. It is recommended not to use more than 2 strips in series (one plugged into the next.

Thank you for the question!It is not recommended to plug an extension cord or another power strip into a surge protector. It will still work, however the surge protection function will no longer work and your equipment will be at risk of surges.Globe Customer Appreciation Team

No surge protection, not really a power strip either, I DJ and use it to plug 4 lights into one plugged switch, so when I turn the switch It controls 4 lights at once. Hope this helps

Almost any charger meant for lead acid batteries. Altronics makes chargers for the alarm industry for these and give an output for use when the power is out. The basic 3 amp model would be OK for overnight charging. Less expensive plug in chargers are available. These are the least on a battery this large. You also could use a car battery charger as long as the output is switchable 2/6 amp model. All are available at Amazon.

Never plug a power backup unit such as this into a protector strip. It can cause power surges and other issues.

The product description on the Aeotec website mentions surge /over current protection to the following levels: Max. Joules: 650Max. Surge Current: 6000V/3000A. I dont see a problem with plugging in an additional surge protected strip.

You should have at least a basic charge controller to avoid over-charging your battery and possibly damaging it. The panel has built-in diodes to prevent discharging your battery when there's no light on the panel.

I would recommend against doing so. Any type of power strip - with or without a surge protector - is usually used for smaller electronic loads. Larger high-powered loads such as heaters draw a lot more current on a continuous basis. They can overheat or overload many power strips or surge protectors unless the surge protector, strip and cord are all rated for heavy duty use. This unit also would not benefit from surge protection the way that sensitive electronics would.

These power strips are rated for 125 volts. That is also the plug configuration.

This is just a power strip or power "extender" if you will. They are super heavy-duty and work well. I plan on getting a bunch more later on.

Use the USB plugin on a computer only. It requires 5volts and a 1amp supply. Yes there are power AC plug-in adapters that will work at this Volt-Amp supply. Your battery will still charge up , it will not be damaged. Read my comment below at Loftek direct below.

Just a power strip. I needed it for the kitchen but didn't need 6 outlets or surge protector either. This is good quality and fit the bill for small areas.

I personally would use the Save A Battery 2365-36 36-Volt Battery Charger and Maintainer.

Yes, You should put a charge controller in line to batteries, rated at the proper amps/watts so you don't overcharge batt.
