Big Power for Prestige Car Batteries
With an enhanced 6 Amp output, the OptiMate 6 packs the punch to charge and maintain 12V lead-acid batteries up to 144Ah, covering the AGM and GEL types fitted to many prestige cars, SUVs, and vehicles with stop-start systems. It’s also ideal for larger size leisure batteries found in camper vans, motorhomes, pickup trucks, etc.
Many high-end vehicles place demands on their batteries, even when parked, with on-board electronics, diagnostic systems and alarm units all drawing power. The OptiMate 6 - 6A’s advanced microprocessor technology automatically assesses the battery’s condition and applies the ideal charge programme, restoring charge safely and efficiently, from as low as 0.5 Volts.
Once charged, the eco mode keeps the battery topped up and ready to go, using less than 0.5W standby power; ideal for vehicles stored indoors or out. And because it adjusts the current to suit the battery size and condition, there’s no risk of overcharging or damage to sensitive electronics.
Should you find your vehicle has a flat battery, it’s also capable of recovering deep-discharged and neglected batteries, potentially saving the substantial cost of a replacement.
Thanks to its AmpMatic software the OptiMate 6 can also charge and maintain the smaller 12V batteries found on ride-on mowers, motorcycles and scooters. In other words, just about any vehicle you are likely to find in a domestic garage.
The OptiMate 6 - 6A retails at £119.90 including VAT, and comes with a comprehensive three-year warranty. It’s rated for use down to -40°C, with a weatherproof case, wall mounts, and long leads for convenient use in garages and outbuildings.
Ready to use straight out of the box, it’s supplied with two interchangeable SAE leads – one with clamps for bench charging and one with a fuse-protected ring terminal for permanent connection.
