BatteryMINDer® Model 2012: 12V 2 AMP Charger–Maintainer–Desulfator

General Description

BatteryMINDer® 2012 is a SmarTECHnology™ microprocessor controlled charger/maintainer/desulfator. It is designed with 7–stages and is fully automatic. Plug ‘n Run feature means “no buttons to push.” Features easily understood diagnostic LED indicators that display the battery's condition and actual state–of–charge profile. This charger actively monitors your battery's voltage, amperage acceptance and temperature at all times. Working through a series of charging and diagnostics stages, the internal program adjusts its output several times a second based on sensor reading to quickly and correctly charge your battery. When used as a maintainer, the BatteryMINDer® is guaranteed to maximize your battery's life and storage capacity. The temperature compensated long–term maintenance stage will add years of service. Patented full–time high frequency pulse desulfation (NOT high voltage) prevents battery sulfation on new batteries or eliminates in older batteries, the #1 cause of early battery failure. Unit can maintain up to six 12 Volt batteries at one time when connected in parallel by using SmarTechnology™ Y–Connectors 210AY or customer supplied 18–Gauge insulated wire.

Features and Benefits

• Installed ambient temperature sensor for 0°F–130°F operating range ensures the battery will never be overcharged or undercharged regardless of temperature extremes. Optional “at the battery” sensor is also available for greater accuracy when battery and charger are not in same ambient temperature environment.
• Diagnostic LED indicators for power, polarity reversal, battery weak, load, bad cell, testing, desulfating, temperature compensation, charging stage and charge level.
• Maximizes battery life and capacity, reconditions weak batteries.
• Automatic high frequency (not high voltage) pulse desulfation (U.S. patented.)
• Plug ‘n Run operation–no buttons to push.
• FCC certified.
• Microprocessor controlled ensures accurate–precise charging and maintenance during entire lifetime of unit.
• Diagnoses battery’s condition – can predict failing batteries before they die.
• Maintains up to 6 (12V) batteries at a time. Requires use of Y–Connectors 210AY (sold separately) or customer supplied 18–Gauge insulated wire2.
• Extremely efficient, low operating costs.
• Automatic disconnect and resume if AC power is interrupted.
• Short circuit, spark, polarity and thermal runaway protection.
• Built–in Battery Condition Indicator.
• Worldwide 100–240 VAC 50/60 Hz input.
• Never connect two or more batteries together before fully charging each and checking their condition. Failure to fully charge each battery and check their condition can result in a serious safety hazard.
• For AGM 12 volt types such as Odyssey, see Model 2012–AGM.
