Benton BX-1 Charger for us who dont ride everyday! R330.00 incl. Vat. PM me and I will send it to you.

The Charger is described as:

FEATURES
Five-step fully automatic switchmode-mode battery charger and maintainer, designed for charging a variety of SLA (Sealed Lead Acid) batteries, widely used in motorbikes, cars and other vehicles. The batteries may be of various types, i.e.:

* WET/Flooded (Liquid Electrolyte),
* GEL (Gelatin type Electrolyte, absorbed into the plates),
* AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries.

Their capacity ranges from 12V/1.2Ah to 12/120Ah. The Benton BX-1 battery charger also charges batteries in cold conditions. Using state-of-the-art technology, the charger enables the recharging of the batteries to almost 100% of their original capacity. It recovers slightly sulphated batteries. It diagnoses and rescues drained batteries. It provides a trickle charge and maintenance charging which increases battery life and gives superb performance. It also features low back-current drain and low ripple.

PRODUCT SAFETY FEATURES

* Electronically safe against User-errors. The Charger will not damage vehicle electronics. It is totally safe for months-long connections and maintenance of irregularly or seasonally used batteries, even while the charger is still connected to the vehicle. It provides optimal conditioning without damage. There is no risk of over-charging!

* Full protection against wrong connections and against short-circuits ensures safe charging operation.

* Provided with spark-protection mechanism. The charger will not commence charging upon connecting to the battery unless a charging mode has been selected. This embedded feature eliminates the possibility of a spark that often appears during connections.

* Fully controlled by internal Micro-Computer Unit which makes it faster, powerful, reliable and smarter. It detects the state of charge of the battery plugged into it and initiates charging.

* Dust and Splash-proof (IP65).

* Double insulated.
