Techmate Tm-221 Optimate 5-2.8amp Sealed Desulfating Charger & Tester on 2040-parts.com
United States, US
Product Description |
The OptiMate Series battery charger has a unique ability to desulfate and permanently recover batteries that have been neglected or deeply discharged. However, not every ‘dead’ battery can be desulfated and neither can a desulfated battery be recovered to 100% of its previous ability. When a battery becomes sulfated it will suffer some damage / wear to the plates. The extent of the damage depends on how deeply the battery was discharged, how long it was left like that, and at what average temperature. The OptiMate’s unique automatic desulfation mode works like this : Once the OptiMate determines that the battery is sulfated it applies a voltage of up to 22V at a controlled low current for a maximum period of 2 hours, to recover the battery to the extent that it can again accept a charge using the more normal charging algorithm. As part of this, the recovery continues with the subsequent unique charge & check stage which removes remaining sulfate crystals from the plates. The charge retention test which follows this stage confirms that the battery has been adequately recovered before the long term maintenance “floating charge mode cycle” engages. |

The scramble for scarce tires
Mon, 27 Jun 2011North American automakers are struggling with a nagging shortage of tires, caused in part by tire plant closings and rising demand for low-volume specialty tires. Automakers are paying much higher prices -- double-digit percentage increases from a year ago -- as tire makers gain pricing power. "We have been bombarded from every side for additional tires, and we can't keep up," said David O'Donnell, Continental Tire's vice president of original equipment in the Americas.
Singapore Grand Prix (2014) RESULT
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Singapore Grand Prix (2014) RESULT Qualifying for today’s Singapore Grand Prix was a close fought affair, with not much more than half a second separating the top nine, and just seven thousands of a second splitting pole and second. So will Mercedes be able to pull-off another one-two win at Sepang? Actually, no, they couldn’t, but that’s because Nico Rosberg had electrical problems before the start and had to join the race from the pit lane, and ended up retiring as the electrical gremlins proved terminal.
Venchurs Vehicles takes CNG pickup to Moab
Wed, 04 Apr 2012Venchurs Vehicle Systems took its new bifuel Ford F-250 Park Ranger pickup to the rocks of Moab, Utah, for the Easter Jeep Safari. The truck won't climb the most difficult trails, but it did do everything a park ranger's truck might need to. “It's the only CNG in Moab,” said Pat Muldoon, vice president of product development engineering for Venchurs, though he couldn't possibly know that.
