  AccuMate 12 volt or 6 volt battery charger for sealed or regular batteries This is the charger / maintainer we use here to make sure the batteries we send out are charged. It works great! If you connect it wrong it detects it and lights a little red light. If you accidentally short the terminals they do not spark and the output is shut down.
The charger comes with alligator clips connectors and fused eyelet (ring) connectors. The eyelet connects can be connected directly to the battery original electrical connectors. The other end of the cable is a stand automotive connector that has a cap so the terminals can not be accidentally shorted when the and kept clean when the charger is not in use or is being used for other purposes with the alligator clips. If you replace the original battery with the Optima or another battery the cable can also be connected the same way but the hole in the eyelet will have to be slightly enlarged.
It charges the batteries and then maintains them. You can tell at a glance from the green light when the battery is fully charged!
Toyota (GS) battery from Toyota Prius 2004 with eyelet terminals attached.
If you do not use your car or motorcycle often enough you can connect this charger up with with the eyelet connectors and then just plug it into a wall socket when you park your car or motorcycle for an extended period.
From the manufacture:
4 step charger & maintainer for 6V and 12V batteries
AccuMate 6-12 is a versatile, 4-step, automatic charger and maintainer for all modern and classic 6 & 12V lead-acid batteries. AccuMate will charge and maintain any size battery, although best suited to batteries of capacity up to about 75Ah. For larger batteries, one of the AccuMate PRO models would be better suited.
The constant current charge, followed by constant voltage absorption and float charging steps, is ideal for all types of rechargeable: - lead-acid batteries
- filler cap types
- all types of AGM "MF" for motorcycles
- ATVs & watercraft
- valve regulated (VRLA)
- GEL-electrolyte types.
ACCESSORIES
Ideal for long term maintenance of the batteries of irregularly or seasonally used vehicles, vintage & collectors vehicles, gliders, small aircraft & boats, & battery-powered industrial appliances.
Very easy to use - Select 6V or 12V charging output according to battery type, then connect to the battery and mains power. The rest is fully automatic.
Comprehensive & intelligent LED indications:
- AC power on
- battery voltage selection
- wrong polarity connection
- charging
- maintaining (charge completed).
If a sulphated or neglected battery is unable to draw at least 200mA immediately on being connected, the LED indication will remain in yellow (charging). The green maintenance (charge completed) LED means exactly that, charging has been completed.
No risk of overcharging - AccuMate`s special monitoring circuits vary & regulate the current & voltage exactly according to the battery manufacturer's specifications.
SAFE & foolproof - No worries about wrong connections or accidentally shorting the battery clamps. AccuMate's circuit board is automatically protected without fuses. And spark generation is suppressed.
Compact, yet powerful - Safely charges batteries from as low as 2V (1V for 6V batteries) which most other chargers give up on. Constant current achieves a charge in the same time as most 3A chargers.
No risk of overheating - Automatic temperature control regulates charge current to a safe level in hot or enclosed conditions. Advanced 4-step charging program : (6V values in brackets)
STEP 1 : Boost Constant current charging at 1.2A until the rising voltage reaches14.3V (7.15V).
STEP 2 : Absorption - Voltage held at 14.2V (7.1V) until the current drawn by the battery falls to 200mA.
STEP 3 : Maintenance - Float mode : the voltage is held at 13.6V (6.75V) for ideal long-term battery care.
STEP 4 : Interactive standby - Monitors if current exceeds 200mA during long term maintenance charging. If it does, it cycles between steps 2 and 3 to prevent the battery from losing any charge due to permanently connected devices such as an alarm or parasitic drain caused by aged or faulty vehicle wiring. With interactive standby your battery will always be ready to start your vehicle.

Supplied with long input and output leads (15 ft / 4.5m combined), a detachable battery clamp & fused weatherproof eyelet connection set for direct connection to the battery.
Optional accessories include:
- wall bracket
- replacement battery clamps set
- fused eyelet connection set
- alligator clip set
- 2.5m / 8ft output extension lead.(that connects to the two above connectors)
Certifications : 120V model to UL. 2-year warranty.
