Product Description
Endura EC12M Universal 12-Bank Rapid Radio Battery Charger
The Endura EC12M 12-Bank Multi-Unit Charger from Power Products is a compact, professional charging solution designed to charge up to 12 compatible two-way radio batteries simultaneously. Using six interchangeable dual-position charging pods, the EC12M can charge batteries while attached to compatible radios or separately as spare batteries.
Ideal for businesses, public safety organizations, industrial facilities, and mixed-radio fleets, the EC12M helps consolidate charging equipment into one space-saving station. Its replaceable charging pods allow the charger to be reconfigured as radio equipment changes.

Charge Up to 12 Radio Batteries at Once
The Endura EC12M uses six dual-position charging pods to provide a total of 12 charging positions. Each pod accommodates two compatible batteries, allowing users to charge batteries installed on radios or removed from radios.
This makes the EC12M especially useful for shift changes, fleet maintenance, spare-battery management, and organizations that need multiple radios ready for daily operation.
Interchangeable Charging Pods for Multiple Radio Brands
The EC12M uses replaceable Endura TWP dual-position charging pods. These pods are available for selected radios and batteries from manufacturers including Motorola, Kenwood, Icom, Hytera, Tait, Harris, BK Technologies, and others.
All six pods can be selected for the same radio model, or different compatible pods can be combined to support a mixed fleet. Each charging pod must be matched to the specific radio battery and chemistry requirements.
Important: Charging Pod Selection Required. The EC12M includes six dual charging pods, but the correct pod models must be selected for your radios. Please choose your compatible pods from the product options before checkout or contact HiTech Wireless for assistance. The total pod quantity must equal six.

Smart Rapid Charging Technology
The EC12M uses advanced charging technology designed to help prevent overcharging while maintaining battery readiness. Automatic recharging supports compatible batteries when a radio remains powered on in the charger.
Each dual-position pod has LED indicators for charging status. The charger provides status information for charging in progress, approximately 80% charge, and fully charged batteries. Battery temperature monitoring is available for compatible batteries equipped with temperature-sensing circuitry.
Compact Design for Radio Fleets
Despite providing 12 charging positions, the EC12M occupies a compact desktop footprint of approximately 20.0 inches by 5.8 inches. This helps reduce the number of separate charging stations and power cords needed for large radio fleets.
The EC12M is well suited for centralized radio storage, dispatch rooms, security offices, equipment rooms, and shared employee charging areas.
