Australia-based REDARC unveiled three new products at Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, Arizona.
“As with all REDARC products, they are designed, engineered and rigorously tested in Australia’s toughest conditions, underscoring the company’s commitment to quality, durability and reliability,” REDARC said. “With these launches, REDARC broadens its reach to vanlifers and outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds, appealing to a wider array of consumers than ever before.”
The new products include:
- Manager Alpha: an advanced battery management system tailored for vans, trailer campers and RVs. Available in 50A, 75A, and 100A capacities, it’s powered by vehicle (DC), shore power (AC) and solar inputs. Capable of charging three times faster than the Manager30, it can charge a 600Ah (lithium) battery bank from flat to full in less than 8 hours. It’s up to 55% smaller and 28% lighter than similar systems.
- Tow-Pro Link: the latest in REDARC’s lineup of brake controllers, redefining a safe towing experience with Bluetooth connectivity. The Tow-Pro Link features dual control modes — “Everyday” proportional mode for routine driving and “Manual Off-road” mode — ensuring adaptable trailer control. Engineered for plug-and-play installation, it requires no modifications to the vehicle’s dash or tools to drill. The system includes SwayStop Plus technology, which provides instant trailer stabilization with a push of a button via the dedicated wireless remote head or through the app. Additionally, the Tow-Pro Link incorporates a six-axis sensor that enhances towing sensitivity and control.
- GoBlock: a portable power source and a in-vehicle dual-battery system. When charged via the PowerDock or capable Anderson input, the GoBlock’s 100Ah (1200W) capacity can be fully recharged in just two hours with its rapid 50A recharge rate. With Bluetooth technology, the GoBlock connects to the RedVision smartphone app for battery status, diagnostics and updates. In the event of a start battery failure, the GoBlock’s Start Battery Recovery feature ensures a rapid recharge in just 15 minutes. With an IP52 protection rating, its inputs and outputs are recessed with shields to protect them from hard knocks and inclement weather.
“For the last 45 years, REDARC has been a pioneer in power management and trailer brake technology, always leading, never following, and designing innovative solutions that empower every adventurer to explore with confidence,” said Peter Favilla, REDARC’s global president. “Our new products demonstrate REDARC’s leadership; the Manager Alpha will redefine charging systems in vans, RVs and other power-hungry vehicles. The GoBlock stands out as the most innovative portable dual-battery system available. Meanwhile, we continue to assert our dominance in the trailer brake sector with the announcement of the Tow-Pro Link, which introduces incredible new wireless functionality, easy installation and impeccable safety.”
