Introduction
Compact electronic battery chargers with pressed steel casing and carrying handle. Intelligent charge control makes them perfect for long term
maintenance of batteries on irregularly or seasonally used vehicles. AUTOCHARGE12 and AUTOCHARGE18 additionally feature an
analogue ammeter for accurate indication of charge rate. Suitable for lead-acid or low maintenance batteries, these chargers react continuously
to battery condition and deliver whatever charge rate is required. An LED display confirms the status of charger. These electronic chargers can
be connected to a battery for an indefinite period – the intelligent circuitry constantly monitoring the voltage and maintaining the battery's level of
charge at its optimum.
