Tait TP9000 In-Vehicle Charger, 10 to 30V DC
Keep your Tait portable charged between jobs with a rugged, low-profile cradle that hard-wires into any 12V or 24V vehicle.
Overview
The Logic LEVCA-TA2 combines a custom-fit Tait radio cradle and an intelligent charger in one compact unit. Drop a Tait TP9300, TP9500 or TP8100 series radio into the holder, strap it in and it charges while you drive.
It's the current LEVCA generation, replacing the older two-part LEVC, with a wider 10 to 30V input and a single locking DC cable. Built for working vehicles around the Bay of Plenty and beyond, from forestry utes to council trucks.
Key Features
- Integrated charger and radio cradle means one compact unit to mount, not a holder plus a separate controller, for installers short on dash space in utes and trucks.
- Intelligent pulse charging means each charge cycle equalises and conditions the battery, for fleets that need batteries to last a full shift, year after year.
- Alpha contact battery connections means reliable charging on corrugated gravel and forestry roads, for crews who spend their day off the seal.
- 20G-rated retention strap means the radio stays put under hard braking and rough terrain, for drivers who can't afford a radio flying round the cab.
- 10 to 30V DC input with one locking cable means it suits both 12V and 24V vehicles with a tidy single-cable install, for mixed fleets of utes and heavy trucks.
- Tri-colour status LED means a quick glance shows charging, 80% or full, for workers grabbing the radio on the way out of the vehicle.
- 4 AMPS standard mounting pattern means it fits common vehicle mounts, for installers working around existing fit-outs.
Applications
- Construction and civil site vehicles
- Forestry and agricultural utes
- Utility, roading and maintenance fleets
- Transport and logistics vehicles
- Emergency services and volunteer response vehicles
Compatible With
The LEVCA-TA2 radio holder is shaped for Tait TP8000 and TP9000 series portable radios fitted with one of these Tait batteries:
- Tait T03-00011-AAAA Li-Ion battery
- Tait T03-00011-CAAA
- Tait T03-00011-EAAA
That covers Tait TP9300, TP9500 and TP8100 series radios such as the TP9310, TP9355, TP9360, TP9555 and TP9560 when they run one of the batteries above.
Not yet confirmed: the newer Tait TP9700 series and the TP9361 IS intrinsically safe radio. Logic's datasheet doesn't name them, so talk to us before ordering for these radios. The LEVCA itself is not an intrinsically safe charger and must not be used in a hazardous area.
What's in the Box
- Logic LEVCA-TA2 radio holder with integrated smart charger
- Retention strap
- DC power cable, 3.0m with 3A in-line fuse and locking connector, for hard-wired installation
Sold separately: Logic LEVCA-VPA 12V plug and play cigarette cable for a no-wiring install. Mounting brackets (multi-directional, heavy duty truck and adhesive window mounts) are listed by Logic as separate parts, so check with us which mount suits your vehicle.

FAQs
Will the LEVCA-TA2 fit my Tait radio?
The LEVCA-TA2 fits Tait TP8000 and TP9000 series portables using a Tait T03-00011-AAAA, -CAAA or -EAAA battery. The TP9700 series and TP9361 IS aren't named on Logic's datasheet yet, so check with us before ordering for those.
Which batteries does this in-vehicle charger work with?
The LEVCA-TA2 charges Tait T03-00011-AAAA, T03-00011-CAAA and T03-00011-EAAA Li-Ion batteries. It's a Li-Ion / LiPo charger only.
Does the Logic in-vehicle charger work on 24V trucks?
Yes, the Logic in-vehicle charger accepts 10V to 30V DC, so it runs on both 12V and 24V vehicle systems without a converter.
Can I plug it into the cigarette lighter instead of hard-wiring it?
Yes, plug and play is possible with the separate LEVCA-VPA cigarette cable. For permanent fleet installs we recommend hard-wiring with the included fused DC cable, which our Bay of Plenty technicians can fit for you.
Will it charge a battery without the radio attached?
Yes, the charger takes the battery on its own or fitted to the radio, so you can swap in a charged spare at the start of a shift.
