The Hawkins Pro 524 is a powerful 12 & 24V battery charger designed to also Jump Start heavy motor vehicles up to 500A cranking capacity. This charger is ideally suited for the large motor workshop, service station or fleet operation, motor dealership and farms. The output is protected by a re-settable circuit breaker to guard against reverse polarity or too high a charging current. It has an overload re-settable breaker if the charge current exceeds the rated output of the charger.

In engine starter mode the Hawkins Pro 524 uses mains electricity to power start a vehicle immobilised by a flat battery.
