Altion key features

Unprecedented charging efficiency

  • 20-35% faster charging than internal and traditional external regulators: Altion's advanced algorithms ensure optimal charging for lead-acid and Lithium-ion batteries, charging them faster and extending their lifespan.

  • Works with any externally regulated alternator: Altion seamlessly integrates with virtually any alternator size or voltage system, handling up to 16 amp fields in systems from 12-48 volts.

  • Intelligent control: Altion utilizes cutting-edge PID control algorithms to maximize charging speed and meticulously fine-tune alternator output, efficiency, and reliability. It dynamically adjusts power based on a multitude of factors, including alternator and battery temperatures, voltage, and amperage.

  • Advanced protection: Altion safeguards your alternator from overheating, even under the heavy loads associated with large batteries and lithium charging.

  • Flexible alternator compatibility: Altion works effortlessly with both P-type or N-type alternators with its supplied wiring harness.

  • Efficient power management: Altion charges only when excess engine power is available, intelligently monitoring engine RPM to prevent unnecessary strain in idle and high output situations.

  • Dual alternator control (Altion Max): For two engine setups, Altion Max coordinates regulation of two alternators in a single device.

Unparalleled battery management

  • Universal battery support: Altion adapts to any battery chemistry, including lead-acid (flooded, AGM) and lithium (LiFePo4), meticulously optimizing charging parameters for each type.

  • Precise measurement: Altion supports current shunts ranging from 25-160 mv and accommodates all amperages, delivering accurate battery current measurement for any battery bank size.

  • Optimized charging: Altion's advanced PID algorithms ensure optimal battery voltage and current, quickly reaching and maintaining a full state of charge while preventing the alternator from overheating.

  • Configurable charge cutoff: Establish a charging cutoff based on user-defined signals, such as relays, voltage spikes, or battery temperature.

  • Dual battery bank control (Altion Max): Altion Max tackles even the most demanding setups, enabling independent charging of two battery banks with potentially different voltages and chemistries.

Effortless setup and configuration

  • Seamless installation: Altion prioritizes ease of use. Utilize our pre-made harnesses for a rapid installation, or leverage the configurable connectors for a customized setup.

  • Simplified wiring: Altion installations require only 5-7 wires in most configurations, with up to 26 connections for elaborate multi-alternator/multi-battery systems.

  • Compact design: The Altion's small footprint (5.1 x 3.1 x 1.2 inches) ensures it fits discreetly into tight spaces.

  • Intuitive configuration: Get up and running in minutes. Select from pre-programmed settings for a wide range of batteries, or customize your parameters for a truly personalized experience.

  • Wireless connectivity: Connect wirelessly using any smartphone, tablet, or PC (Windows or Mac) – no app or cables required.

  • Reliable connectivity options: Altion prioritizes Wi-Fi or ethernet connectivity for superior reliability, extended range, and ease of use compared to traditional Bluetooth options.
