Fully sealed in an IP54 rated weatherproof case, it is 50% lighter than the previous model. 33% more powerful and can recover severely neglected batteries from as low as 2 Volts, thanks to cutting-edge electronics.

The Optimate3 Global’s microprocessor automatically performs hourly tests, maintaining the battery with an interactive float charge, (800mA maximum), providing advance warning of any problems. It also diagnoses sulphation (when crystals form around the lead plates inside the battery, reducing performance), and automatically applies pulses of electric current to break them down and recover the battery.

Safety features include spark suppression, automatic shut-down if short-circuited/battery disconnected and zero risk of overcharging.

The OptiMate3 Global has a wide range input (100-240V, 50-60Hz) that works with mains electricity around the world and also absorbs current irregularities better. It sells for £49.99 including VAT and there are also two and four bank options (£99.99 and £195.00) for multi-bike owners and small workshops.
