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.
  • Universal power input system accepts AC power between 100 - 240VAC Hook up the battery and the OptiMate 5 immediately checks if the battery is sulfated or not. If necessary it applies ‘first aid’ in the form of a voltage of up to 22V at low current for up to 2 hours, to recover the battery so it can again accept a charge.
  • Sealed weatherproof enclosure that includes wallmounts and the new bullet SAE connectors with 24/7 maintenance.
  • Recommended for all 12V lead-acid batteries from 7.5Ah to 120Ah.

    Happy Anniversary: delivery-mileage Lamborghini Countach for sale

    Tue, 21 Jan 2014

    Just when you think you've seen it all, along comes a delivery mileage Lamborghini Countach that has been sat 'resting' in a storage facility since April 1990. And although it would be rather amusing to report the supercar had been discovered during an episode of Storage Wars, the reality is a little different. The Countach is the car that graced the bedroom walls of countless young boys in the 1980s, condemning the Ferrari poster to the waste paper bin.
