RAM Mounts GDS Hardwire Charger, 20–60 V In / 12 V Out, Male 5.5 mm DC Plug (RAM-GDS-CHARGE-V9U) is a modular GDS hardwire charger that converts the 20–60 V DC on-board supply into a regulated 12 V DC for RAM and GDS docks with a female 5.5 mm DC power input. With a 20–60 V DC input range it is designed for forklifts and material-handling vehicles with higher system voltages. The charger is wired to the vehicle once: a 2-pole flat marine quick-disconnect on the 1.2 m input cable lets you unplug it and fit different charger components when you change devices – without rewiring. The short 0.2 m output lead ends in a male 5.5 × 2.5 mm barrel plug that goes straight into the dock.
