Optimate introduces a new shop charger that initializes new sealed and filler cap batteries in one hour and also desulfates and recovers neglected batteries.

Simply decide between “new” or “used” battery selection. Select “new” and battery receives the correct initialization charge within one hour. The “used” program allows optional selection between two sizes of battery and the rest is done automatically.

The high voltage and pulsing recovery mode is able to save a neglected sulfated 12V lead-acid battery unable to accept charge from a standard charger.

Battery power is optimized during bulk, absorption, and cell balancing charge modes by the micro-processor controlled AMP-MATIC program, a unique feature that automatically ensures the battery receives optimal current every second, and then tests to verify charge retention.

Automatic safety features include quick identification of a severaly shorted battery, 12-hour maximum program for used batteries, and electronic reverse polarity protection. Wallmounts are integrated for easy and convenient wall placement and there us a 115V-230V power input selection.
