TecMate: The OptiMate Ampmatic range of powerful battery saving
chargers are the ideal rescue - hook it up and the charger does the rest,
even for a battery as low as 1/2 a volt. Ampmatic chargers will determine
battery condition, then how many amps it can accept to get it back up as
fast as possible. The OptiMate 6 Ampmatic delivers up to 5 amps, which is
perfect for any size of 12V lead-acid power sport battery, but for a 12V
battery sized from 20 to 30Ah, the kind typically found in bagger/touring
V-twin motorcycles, the super-powerful new OptiMate 7 Ampmatic delivers
up to 10 amps. For 12.8V/13.2V lithium (LiFePO4) batteries, the OptiMate
Lithium 4s 5A has a lithium-specific Ampmatic charge program that will
safely nurse the battery back to life and then get it back up to 'start' level
fast; www.optimate1.com
