Zeus High-Energy Alternator Regulator

ARCO’s Zeus is the only high-energy external alternator regulator to feature Bluetooth and a native app (on IOS and Android) allowing for easy installation and configuration. With its intuitive interface, you can access information on your system that you never had before. This information will enable you to regulate your system and optimize your battery charge and alternator output, resulting in a safer experience while protecting your energy system investment.

Zeus is the only alternator regulator that can read 2 shunts at a time (the battery shunt and alternator shunt). This feature enables Zeus to react to inputs from the battery current/temperature and alternator current/temperature.

Through the ARCO Zeus application, you are in good hands. Your data is automatically logged and can be shared with your technician to troubleshoot your system remotely. You can even import your remote technician’s configurations. 

Zeus optimizes battery charges for 12-48 volt systems. Whether you are using Lithium (LiFePo4) batteries or lead-acid Deep Cycle batteries, Zeus has you covered with its pre-set battery libraries and configurable menus to optimize your charging profiles. Zeus manages a complex set of inputs by giving you easy-to-understand options.

Zeus also takes into consideration the power of your engine and allows you to configure the alternator’s power take-off from the engine by managing the field, or duty. An advanced feature of Zeus is that it can turn your engine into a dedicated generator with the press of a button, whereby it focuses the alternator’s performance on the creation of energy to replenish your battery bank quickly.

Consistent with Zeus’ ease of use, Zeus is the only alternator regulator on the market that comes with alternator/battery harnesses and 2 thermistor harnesses, without an additional charge, saving users money and time from sourcing harnesses.

Features:

  • Secure Bluetooth connection
  • Harnesses, Thermistors, and NMEA 2000 kit included
  • Monitors the state of charge
  • Can turn your engine into a dedicated generator with generator mode
  • Pre-set battery libraries
  • Data logging and sharing
  • CAN bus and NMEA 2000-integrated networks
  • Compatible with all voltage systems (12- 48V)
  • IP66 & IP67 rated
  • 2-Year warranty

A great line of sight phone holder with a few flaws.
Overall this does the job and is priced affordably the pros and cons are as follows: Pros: Strong magnet Solid construction Great for line of sight Charges well Cons: Charging cable is not long enough to route inside my car holder tends to droop down slightly with my phone on it (Pixel 7), not so much that it's failing but just not holding it's set position

Does not swivel and slow charger
As mentioned in another review, you cannot change the angle of the phone so it faces the other way since it does not swivel. Wish I wish I would have known that before placing it. Also, the charger is REALLY slow. It’s slower than the MagSafe chargers I have in my house. I’m not sure if this is defective. I only used it on my way home from work, and I will be returning it.

Almost perfect
Style: Screen+Charger
Solid mount. I’ve tried other ones but they don’t sit as nicely as this one. It also has a lot of adjustments to allow for using it any way you need it to so it is very versatile. The magnet strength is really good and holds my phone really well. Sometimes it feels too strong which I guess is a good thing. The charging works well but I wish the cable was a little longer

Almost Perfect But With Workaround it Rocks
Style: Dash+Screen+Qi2 Charger, Style: Dash+Screen+Qi2 Charger
This works almost perfectly in my Tesla, with one small tweak for hot summer conditions. It holds my phone very well overall—I position it slightly off-center at about the 10 o’clock position. However, with a larger phone like the Galaxy S25 Ultra, the combination of weight and summer heat can cause the mount to slowly rotate as the suction cup loses some grip. I found a simple fix that works extremely well: applying a small amount of rosin (the same kind used for violin bows) to the friction point where the rotating arm meets the suction base. That added grip completely solved the issue. Now the mount stays exactly where I position it, even in the heat. Solid product, and with that minor adjustment, it performs exactly how I need it to.
