Odyssey OBC-15-A Portable Battery Charger | 15 Amp | Designed for AGM & Pure Lead Batteries

The Odyssey OBC-15-A is a portable 15-amp battery charger engineered specifically for use with Odyssey AGM and pure lead batteries — providing the correct multi-stage charging profile required to correctly charge and maintain Odyssey's TPPL (Thin Plate Pure Lead) AGM batteries without overcharging or undercharging. Odyssey batteries use a pure lead AGM construction that requires a specific charging profile to achieve full charge capacity and maximum battery service life — the OBC-15-A is designed to deliver exactly that. Odyssey Battery is one of the most respected performance and motorsport battery brands in the world — known for their TPPL AGM batteries that deliver exceptional cranking power, deep cycle capability, and service life for automotive, motorsport, marine, and commercial applications.

Key Features:

• 15-amp charge rate — 15-amp charging current — correct for charging Odyssey batteries of a wide range of capacities in a reasonable timeframe
• Designed for Odyssey AGM and pure lead batteries — the OBC-15-A's charging profile is engineered for Odyssey's TPPL (Thin Plate Pure Lead) AGM batteries — delivering the correct charge voltage and current profile to achieve full charge capacity without overcharging
• Multi-stage charging — multi-stage charging algorithm — bulk charge, absorption, and float/maintenance stages ensure the battery is correctly charged and maintained without overcharging or gassing
• Portable design — portable charger — correct for shop, garage, and field use where a portable charging solution is required
• AGM compatible — correct for AGM battery chemistry — the OBC-15-A's charging profile is compatible with Odyssey's AGM construction and will not damage the battery through overcharging
• Odyssey quality — manufactured by Odyssey Battery, one of the most respected performance and motorsport battery brands in the world

Why Use an Odyssey Charger with an Odyssey Battery?

Odyssey's TPPL (Thin Plate Pure Lead) AGM batteries have specific charging requirements that differ from conventional flooded lead-acid batteries and some other AGM batteries. Odyssey batteries can accept a higher charge voltage and charge current than conventional batteries — and they require a specific absorption voltage to achieve full charge capacity. Using a conventional battery charger with an Odyssey battery may result in undercharging (reducing available capacity and service life) or, with some chargers, overcharging (damaging the battery). The Odyssey OBC-15-A is engineered with the correct charging profile for Odyssey's TPPL AGM batteries — ensuring correct charge voltage, correct absorption time, and correct float voltage for maximum battery capacity and service life. For Odyssey battery owners who want to ensure their battery is correctly charged and maintained, the OBC-15-A is the correct charger.

Odyssey TPPL AGM — Why the Charging Profile Matters:

Odyssey's Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) AGM technology uses 99.99% pure lead plates — a construction that provides higher energy density, faster recharge capability, and longer service life than conventional lead-acid or standard AGM batteries. The pure lead construction allows Odyssey batteries to accept a higher charge rate and achieve full charge faster than conventional batteries — but it also requires a charger that delivers the correct absorption voltage and float voltage for the pure lead chemistry. The OBC-15-A's charging algorithm is calibrated for Odyssey's TPPL chemistry — delivering the correct charge profile to maximize battery capacity and service life.
