Can you charge with a Cyclops demolitions vehicle and blow it up in the fight phase.?
It’s hard to find any rules on it.?

Demolition Vehicle: The bearer can be selected to shoot with if it is within Engagement Range of any enemy units and can make attacks with its Cyclops demolition charge when doing so. When this unit is selected to shoot with its Cyclops demolition charge, you must target and resolve attacks against every other visible unit within range (friendly and enemy), even if those units are within Engagement Range of models from a unit from the opposing side. After this unit shoots with Cyclops demolition charge, it is destroyed. In addition, this model cannot control objective markers or perform actions.

Yeah I’ve read that and that’s all I can find on it. So I’m assuming it saying it can use its weapon within engagement range means that the blast rule doesn’t apply to it and can use it weapon in a charge.?

The charge counts as ranges weapon so it can unfortunatly only be "fired" in the shooting phase. It would be cool to do it after a charge but that was repeatedly mentioned.

On the positive side this means it should profit from stuff for vehicle weapons like the catachan reroll for number of shots

Well I’m not sure about it but from what I’ve just read you CAN charge with it and explode it BUT you can’t detonate until the next “shooting” round. You can fire it’s weapon in the shooting round “even when in engagement range”

Yes. You can charge turn X, be in engagement range and then explore in turn X+1. You have to survive long enough though.
On special case: DKOK Cyclops can charge, hopefully die in the fightphase and then fire their weapon (So the charge) on a 4+
