Blue Sea 1045 12/24V Dual USB Charger - 1-1/8" Socket Mount

The Blue Sea 1045 12/24V Dual USB Charger is a marine-grade power solution designed for vessels that demand reliable, intelligent device charging in harsh saltwater environments. This socket-mount dual USB charger features intelligent device recognition that automatically detects and delivers the precise charging speed required by smartphones, tablets, and other USB-powered equipment—eliminating guesswork and preventing charge-time delays when you need power most.

Built for marine conditions, the 1045 incorporates conformal coating on its circuit board to resist corrosion from salt spray and moisture exposure. Internal filtering reduces electronic interference that can degrade radio or navigation system performance—a critical consideration aboard fishing boats and offshore vessels where clean power feeds critical safety systems. Over-temperature protection safeguards both the charger and connected devices, while the included protective dust cap prevents debris and spray from compromising contacts during periods of non-use. The 1-1/8" socket mount accepts any standard marine panel-mount fixture, making installation straightforward in existing console layouts.

This charger suits any boater running dual voltage systems—whether a weekend fisherman managing a single battery bank or an offshore captain with split 12V/24V electrical architecture. The dual-port design means crew members can charge GPS units, fish finders, communication devices, and personal electronics simultaneously without competing for limited power access. For serious anglers, tournament competitors, and cruising boaters, the 1045 provides the foundation for keeping vital equipment charged in an environment where AC shore power isn't always available.
