Side-by-side: Mascot 2042 vs Mean Well GC120A12-AD1
Engineering specs compared head-to-head. Mascot column is pulled live from the Pulsar catalogue; Mean Well column is taken from the manufacturer's published datasheet or AI-estimated where the datasheet wasn't accessible. Always verify against the current manufacturer datasheet before design-in.
| Spec | Mascot (live) | Mean Well GC120A12-AD1(estimated) |
|---|---|---|
| Charge Current | 4A | 7.5 A |

| Battery Charger Type | Desktop | 2-Stage Charger |
| Input Voltage Multi | - | 85–264 V AC |
| Input Terminals | - | IEC320-C14 |
| Model | 2042LI | GC120A12-AD1 |
Why switch from RS / Farnell?
Direct from the UK partner. Pulsar Developments is Mascot's UK arm - you're buying from the manufacturer's local team, not a generalist distributor.
Real engineering help. Spec questions, custom labels, custom cable assemblies and special voltages - answered by a UK engineer, usually same day.
Better on volume. Distributor margins fall away on production quantities; ask us for an OEM quote.
Traceability. Every unit ships with the certifications you need for medical, rail, marine and industrial design-in.
