Unique 8-battery optimiser, automatically recovers deep discharged batteries – With new DUAL PROGRAM to select different charging programs for Engine Start & Deep Cycle batteries.

Time-saver for service workshops: Recovery, charging, testing, and maintaining of 8 batteries (even different sizes) simultaneously. Each circuit operates independently and delivers 1.2A constant current. For commissioning new MF batteries, we strongly recommend the use of one of our OptiMate PRO 4 models, as these feature a dedicated, higher voltage MF program. Nonetheless, the OptiMate PRO 8-S can be used for recharging & maintaining such batteries.

Perfect for all types of rechargeable 12V lead-acid batteries: filler cap types, sealed AGM "MF" motorcycle batteries, and gel start & Deep Cycle (DC) batteries. Separate charging programs for Engine Start (STD & MF) and Deep Cycle(DC) batteries. Select the right program by way of four lever switches each controlling the selection for two adjacent stations.

Diagnoses: deep discharge and light sulphation (as low as 2V) and 100% automatically starts a unique recovery treatment to recover many neglected batteries. Perfectly charges up to eight different batteries simultaneously.

Tests: for shorted cell and battery capacity defects. A self-discharge check will diagnose if the battery is able to crank the engine – checks if battery voltage at rest maintains above 12V during the test. For a more complete test including the cranking current that the battery is still able to deliver (CCA), we recommend the use of our resistive tester TestMate (2-30Ah) or our BatteryMate (integrated charger-load tester for 2-45Ah batteries).

Maintains: Provided the battery has passed the voltage retention test, it will be offered a limited amount of current, actually just what it takes so that it won’t self-discharge. Therefore, it is perfectly safe to leave a battery in maintenance mode for indefinite periods of time, even during months or years! This feature is quite interesting for battery dealers who can activate 8 of their top selling batteries and keep them ready for their – sometimes hurried – customers. Another popular application is the charge & maintenance of batteries during the winter storage of pleasure boats, motorcycles, etc…

Easy to use: The advanced, fully automatic, multi-stage charging program ensures a highly effective charge before switching over to the long term maintenance program.Simply select correct charging program – STD/MF or DC batteries. LED indication for: AC power on; inverse polarity connection; recovery program; normal charging; maintenance charging and battery suspect.

NB OptiMate Pro-8-S can use the standard range of OptiMate & AccuMate accessory leads and connection options BUT because the connectors are inverted on this charger (male - female) a special converter / extension lead is required. These 2.5 m converter leads are part number TM79 and will work with all the OptiMate connection leads. These are 2.5m long to allow the Pro-8 to be wall mounted and the vehicles / batteries can be several metres away.

Delivered with 8 detachable & replaceable 2m output leads with battery clamps, power lead, instructions.

Detachable output leads can be disconnected and stored when not in use.

Optional nickel plated steel custom wall-mounting bracket.

Protection: Reverse polarity protected; short circuiting of clamps automatically resets the charging program; Internal fuses protect individual circuits; mains input fuse

2-year limited warranty.
