The 6V / 12V selectable smart charger.

AccuMate is the sister product to the well established OptiMate motorcycle battery charger/optimiser, which has a proven reputation with over 1,500,000 OptiMates sold to date. Like OptiMate, AccuMate is designed to automatically charge and monitor batteries with no danger of over-charging regardless of time. AccuMate is suitable for all 6V and 12V lead acid batteries from 4Ah to 75Ah, making it perfect for owners of vehicles which are not used on a daily basis like classic and sports cars.

Operation of AccuMate is completely automatic. It uses a 1.2A constant current charge as the main stage, while monitoring the battery voltage. When this reaches a pre-set cut off point, it then switches to an intermediate constant voltage ‘float charge’. Only when AccuMate has detected that the battery is properly charged will it switch to the final stage for correct long-term battery maintenance and indicate a green LED. If at any time AccuMate detects that the battery has discharged, it will automatically revert to the constant current stage.

  • Versatile, 4-step, automatic charger and maintainer for all modern and classic 6 & 12V lead-acid batteries up to 75Ah.
  • Perfect for all types of rechargeable lead-acid batteries: filler cap types; absorbed acid “MF” for motorcycles; valve regulated (VRLA); & GEL-electrolyte types.
  • Very easy to use – Select 6V or 12V charging output according to battery type and then connect to battery and mains power. The rest is fully automatic.
  • Comprehensive & intelligent LED indications – AC power on; battery voltage selection; wrong polarity connection; charging; and maintain (charge completed).
  • The green maintain (charge completed) LED means exactly that, charging has been completed.
  • No risk of overcharging – designed for long-term connection.  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, accidentally shorting the battery clamps or blowing fuses.  Automatic protection even suppresses sparks.
  • Compact, yet powerful – Will safely charge 12V batteries discharged to as low as 3V (1.5V for 6V batteries) when other chargers are unable to. Charging time equal to a 3 Amp conventional charger despite the compact size.
  • No risk of overheating – Automatic temperature control regulates charge current to a safe level in hot or enclosed conditions.

AccuMate PRO 12V-24V – Selectable 12V 7A / 24V 3.5A  smart battery charger

  • Suitable for all types of lead/acid batteries: filler cap types; absorbed acid “MF” (AGM); valve regulated (VRLA); & flooded (wet) & GEL-electrolyte types from 17Ah upwards (9Ah upwards for 24V).
  • Very easy to use – Select 12V or 24V charging output according to battery type, then connect to battery and mains power. The rest is fully automatic.
  • In addition to its quick charging ability, AccuMate PRO is ideal for long term maintenance of the batteries of irregularly or seasonally used vehicles & appliances, classic, veteran & collectors` vehicles.
  • Interactive standby feature – operational during MAINTAIN stage – acts as a power supply and battery protector. It will allow close to maximum current to be drawn by circuits or devices connected to the battery (vehicle alarms, trackers, ventilation fans, in-vehicle freezers) without the battery losing any charge.
  • No risk of overcharging – AccuMate PRO’s special temperature regulated monitoring circuits vary & regulate the current & voltage according to ambient temperature as long as the batteries remain connected. One month or one year, it makes no difference!
  • Easily detachable handle incorporates cable and clamp storage and can be mounted above the main housing (for carrying) or below (for wall-mounting).  2 keyhole slots in the rear of the housing engage on two screws in the wall.
  • Compact charger dimensions of 14 x 16 x 15 cm (5½” x 6 3/8″ x 6″high) including handle.
  • Integral cooling fan with sealed ball-bearings (rated for a minimum 5 years of continuous running) ensures cool operation for enhanced service life.  An internal temperature monitor (NTC thermistor) controls the output current & reduces it if necessary to avoid overheating in exceptional circumstances.
  • Intelligent electronic protections against inverse polarity, short-circuit, over-heating with built in spark suppression.
  • Additional fused protection provided by: fused eyelet connection lead (protects battery against dead-shorting across terminals in case of accident); AC input fuse; accidental disablement of the built-in cooling fan; and a thermal fuse protects the transformer.
  • Delivered with wall / carry bracket; mains lead; 2 detachable connection sets: one with battery clips, the other with eyelets for permanent attachment to the battery terminals, complete with an inline fuse.
  • 24 months warranty excluding cables, connectors, sensors & probes.

What does the Quad program mean on the OptiMate 4?
OptiMate 4 Quad Program includes four charging programs; the standard program for lead-acid batteries is supposed to be used when connecting directly to the battery, the CANbus (BMW) program for lead-acid batteries allows charging and maintaining via the DIN socket on BMW Motorcycles (models 2004 and later).

The standard program for lithium batteries is supposed to be used when connecting directly to the battery, the CANbus (BMW) program for lithium batteries allows charging and maintaining via the DIN socket on BMW Motorcycles (models 2004 and later).

Does OptiMate 4 have a battery recovery program?
Yes, the standard program has the most advanced recovery program which saves ‘dead flat’ sulphated batteries from as low as 0,5V.

Which program do I need to select to charge over the 12V socket on my BMW?
You’ll need to select Program 2 (Pb-CAN-bus) or Program 4 (LFP-CAN-bus) depending on the type of battery in your BMW motorcycle. Program 2 is for a 12V sealed lead-acid battery – your sealed battery may be marked 12V VRLA, GEL or AGM. Program 4 is for a 12.8V LFP (Li-Ion with chemistry LiFePO4) battery.

How do I select the correct program?
Disconnect the OptiMate 4 from the battery or vehicle. Push and release the pushbutton switch. The mode selection changes when the button is released. Continue to press and release until the desired program has been selected. If no futher selection is made for at least 3 seconds SAVE (#3), CHARGE (#4), OPTIMIZE(#5) and TEST (#6,7, 8) LEDs flash twice to confirm selection is in memory.

What’s the difference between the OptiMate 4 Quad Program and the OptiMate 4 Quad Program Premium edition?
The standard edition is delivered with a set of battery clips (O-04), a permanent battery lead (O-01) and a handlebar hanging hook to suspend the charger from the handlebar. The Premium edition includes all the same accessories PLUS a SAE to DIN adapter (O-19) to connect directly to 12V DIN sockets on BMW and Triumph motorcycles.

I want to use my OptiMate QUAD over the 12v socket. Which additional connector do I need?
You will need one of the OptiMate BIKE plug cables (O-02, O-09, O19 or O-29)

Can I charge my Triumph motorcycle through the 12V DIN socket?
Yes, IF the socket is ‘live’ (hot) when the motorcycle ignition is turned off. (TIP: Recent model Triumph Tiger 850/900 and 1200/1250 have a live socket near the instrument panel.). Select program 1 or 3 for direct-to-battery charging as the socket is directly connected to the battery.

What type and size batteries does OptiMate 4 Quad Program charge?
STD, AGM and GEL 12V lead-acid & 12.8V / 13.2V lithium LFP (LiFePO4) batteries used for engine start & deep cycle applications. For lead-acid batteries from 4Ah to 60Ah for 24-7 battery maintenance and for lithium batteries from 2Ah to 15Ah for 24-7 battery maintenance.

How fast does OptiMate 4 recharge batteries?
Charge time on a flat but otherwise undamaged battery: a 12Ah battery should take no more than about 12 hours to progress to the self-discharge check. Deep-discharged batteries may take significantly longer, a full charge may not be achieved within the hour charge safety limit. In this case.
