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. |

Happy Anniversary: delivery-mileage Lamborghini Countach for sale
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Just 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.

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.
