Description
Features
- OptiMate Solar DUO, the smart 5 amp solar controller that safely charges all types of 12V batteries fully automatic connect & forget technology
- Works with 12V polycrystalline or mono-crystalline solar panels, with rated output from 10 W to 60 W
- Ideal for: STD, AGM & GEL 12 V batteries from 2 240 Ah and Lithium LFP 12.8 V / 13.2 V batteries
- The smart charge controller automatically adjusts charge according to battery type and condition connect to the battery and the OptiMate Solar DUO controller does the rest, no supervision required
- The fully automatic multi-step program brings the battery safely to full charge and continues to maintain the battery daily Charger by day
- Batterys state of charge is displayed on the LED panel 24-7 Monitor by night
- Converts low solar energy to efficient pulse charge
- Full electronic protection
- Saves your dead battery from as low as 4 V
- Efficient dual conversion
- Low power use
- Indoor/Outdoor rated for use down to -20°C / -4°F
- Weatherproof battery lead, standard battery clip set & SAE 2-pin connector
- Charging amps: A from 10-60 W panel (max. average current), 3-5 A pulse current
- Safe: No risk of overcharging, totally safe for vehicle electronics, sparks suppressed; Safe for long-term battery maintenance; Automatic shut-down if short-circuited or battery disconnected
- Fastest charge is delivered as smart charge control selects pulse or continuous charge according to sunlight strength
- Intelligent maintenance continues the next day if battery retained charge overnight, otherwise the program reverts to optimize step
- Battery condition is displayed every 3 seconds
- Ready indication for STD, hi-performance AGM and lithium LFP batteries
- Draws less than 0.5 mA during monitor mode
- Automatically switches to charge when solar power is sufficient
- The OptiMate DUO charger-monitor controller is separate to the solar panel and can be placed close to the vehicle or battery so that charge and maintenance progress can be easily followed
- The solar panel must be mounted and angled to receive direct sunlight
- The reach / distance between battery and panel is 315 cm / 124"
