Sterling 3 stage, bought mine from here:

A proper charger, unlike most fitted to caravans.

When I bought mine, about a year ago, I got a 12v, 20 amp, 4 stage which was quite pricey.

I have just checked on JG tech site and they have brought the prices down and would suggest that you go for the 12v, 10 amp, 4 stage Pro Budget at

Hi,

Swift have now started to install proper chargers in new vans. They use a full power supply system (see thier website for tech spec) but the basic charger element is a cahrger specified as NE143. Call it up under Google for information.

I've looked at their tech. spec. but can find no mention of how many charge stages the unit has or the voltages associated with each stage. All extremely important factors.

Hi,try:

http://www.caravantechnology.com/productslist.aspx?CategoryID=1&selection=0.The chargers on that website are basically the same ones that Swift install in their power supply system. There is also some useful info.

Yes, it looks like a reasonable charger/psu.
