The GBC 38.0265.01 charges lead-acid batteries at 0.6A across three selectable voltages — 2V, 6V, and 12V — covering small sealed lead-acid cells, motorcycle batteries, and standard 12V automotive batteries up to 18Ah. Connection is via crocodile clips fed from a standard EU mains plug.

An end-of-charge LED signals when charging is complete, and a dedicated reverse-polarity LED warns if the clips are connected incorrectly. Output voltage steps are 2.45V, 7.35V, and 14.7V DC, with end-of-charge voltages of 2.3V, 6.9V, and 13.8V (±0.10V) respectively.

Key Features
