TecMate TM-221 OptiMate 5 2.8Amp Weatherproof Desulfating Charger/Maintainer Feature
- Safe long-term maintenance cycle
- Tests battery every hour
- Proven reliability and ease of use
- Optimizes battery power and life
OptiMate 5 is the all-in-one tool for 12 volt battery care at home. Diagnoses, recovers, charges, tests and optimally maintains, automatically. OptiMate 5 retains all the fully automatic, 100 per cent safe, easy-to-use characteristics, of the 1,5 million OptiMates produced since 1995, but adds a powerful 2,8 Amp output to take care of larger batteries. OptiMate 5 will recover it from deep discharge and optimally recharge it. Then it will check that the charge delivered is the best possible, before checking how well the battery can retain the charge and tell you its status, at a glance. It will then maintain your battery at full charge safely for months at a time and extend its life by up to 400 per cent. Reducing waste, for a better environment. Battery performance guaranteed. OptiMate 5 must connect to a battery (retaining minimum 2 volt) to activate its output. If due to sulfation the battery's resistance is abnormally high, a voltage of up to 20 volt is automatically applied to overcome this so as to recover very flat or neglected batteries until they are able to accept the normal charge program. A constant current of 2.8A efficiently brings the battery close to full charge. As soon as the rising resistance causes the charge voltage to reach 14.3 volt, the voltage is limited at 13.6 volt for 30 minutes, while the circuit monitors the actual voltage and the current absorbed by the battery. When the monitored parameters confirm that an optimal charge has been achieved, the first check for battery (and connected system) power leakage commences. Depending on the voltage retained during 30 minutes, an "OK" (green LED) or "not OK" (red LED) test result is displayed.
