Non-isolated chargers (like the Orion-Tr Smart 12/12-30A) connect input and output grounds directly, making them lighter, smaller, and cheaper - ideal for grounded systems like most vehicles and boats. Isolated versions have full electrical separation, useful to protect an environment free of electrical noise (e.g., some sensitive audio or video systems) but bulkier and pricier. Choose non-isolated unless isolation is required for noise reduction.
