Optimate 12V 2A DC - DC Motorcycle Battery Charger

Description

Optimate DC-DC – the Unique battery to battery charger!
Charge without AC power
Maintain Remote Battery
Save your ‘dead’ battery
.....from another 12V battery or DC supply!

OptiMate DC to DC, recovers, charges & maintains a 12V lead-acid or lithium battery from another 12V battery or DC supply.
OptiMate DC to DC brings you the advanced OptiMate features to places where there is no access to an AC Mains Power supply. Recover, charge and maintain your battery using a larger source battery (ideally greater than 1.5 times the target battery’s capacity) without fear of discharging the source thanks to OptiMate's Source Battery Protection. 

How it works

Safety check: Optimate DC->DC must be connected to a battery (retaining minimum 1V) to activate its output.

Recovery: If the battery is in a deep discharged state the OptiMate will offer a 0.2A until the voltage increases to 8.8V. Followed by a pulse recovery stage at 2A. 

Bulk Charge: A constant current of 2 A (max) efficiently brings the battery close to full charge.

Charge verification: The circuit verifies battery charge level (2 hours maximum). If the battery requires further charging, BULK CHARGE recommences for brief periods. These revisions may occur as many times as is necessary to reduce the battery's current demand below 200mA at 13,6.

Charge retention test: Delivery of current ot the battery is interrupted for 30 minutes, determining the battery's ability to retain charge. For batteries with a GOOD state of health, LED #5 (green) should continue to flash for the full 30 minute period.

Charge maintenance: LED #5 or 6 indicates depending on the outcome of the voltage retention test.The maintenance charge mode is designed to preserve the DC source battery whilst maintaining the battery connected for maintenance at full charge. A charge period intermittently alternates with a monitor period. Length of charge and/or monitor period depends on the drain of connected circuitry from the MAINTAINED battery. A charge period is activated when voltage of a the maintained battery reduces below 12.9V and continues until the voltage reaches 13.6V. LED #5 or 6 indicates continuously during the charge period. During a monitoring period no charge is delivered. Current draw from the SOURCE battery is limited to what the charger reuqires to monitor the MAINTAINED battery. During battery monitoring mode LED #5 or 6 will flash every 10 seconds to indicate battery status (as determined during the previous voltage retention test). The charge and monitor cycles will repeat until either the SOURCE battery (or DC supply) or MAINTAINED battery is disconnected or the SOURCE battery is completely discharged.

Source battery protection: warning light and automatic shut-down. Once the source battery voltage reduces below 10V, the OptiMate DC-DC will shut off avoiding deep discharge of the source battery.

About Us

Company Information

The history of BikespeedUK.com stems back over 30 years and originates from C&J Wilson (Uphall) Ltd, a Scottish family owned independent motorcycle retail company.  The business grew quickly in the early years and before long had cultivated franchises with brands such as Kawasaki, Vespa and Piaggio.  Despite the highly competitive industry the business continued to flourish and developed a wide reaching reputation in the parts and tyres trade supplying products to customers throughout the length and breadth of the country. The BikespeedUK.com brand was launched in 2008 as the online division of C&J Wilson with a view to expanding the consumer base and allowing customers from further regions to benefit from the products and service being offered.  Within the online retail environment BikespeedUK.com rapidly identified the importance customers place on delivery speed and quality of service.  The company adapted its operations to focus on delivering these key aspects, often exceeding all expectations.

Now specialising solely in hard parts and tyres the brand is continuing to develop within the marketplace and is now meeting the needs of motorcycle consumers all over Europe.  One of the precursors to the success of BikespeedUK.com has been the high volume of stock carried within company owned warehousing facilities often allowing deliveries to be made within 24 hours of purchasing. 

In 2010 the growth and expansion of BikespeedUK.com allowed it to stand alone separated completely from the high street retail division of C&J Wilson Ltd.  In the last 2 years the business has thrived further still and is looking ahead to a fruitful future within the online marketplace.

"We aim to supply the fastest and best value of service in the online sale of motorcycle parts and accessories available"
