Acumen Titanium Black Charger

Written by 
Acumen Electronics Titanium Black Charger with V&A Acumen Electronics Titanium Black Charger with V&A Acumen Electronics
News has just come in that the highly rated battery charger and conditioner produced by Acumen has now been upgraded to the V&A model to extend funtionality. We tested the standard Acumen Platinum Black charger and were very impressed - especially on batteries that were previously showing as duff units so having an LCD readout of your volt and amps would be useful to a lot of people, here is the official blurb.
British electronics specialist Acumen has introduced a striking new ‘Black’ version of the popular Titanium V&A Smart Charger. Durable, multifunctional and easy to use, Acumen’s Titianium Black V&A features a tough, splash-proof aluminium case (certified sealed to IP54), so it’s ideal for use in garages, sheds, workshops and other demanding environments. Designed for use with all types of lead-acid batteries – including Maintenance Free and GEL varieties – the Titanium Black tests, charges, maintains and can even recover badly discharged/sulphated batteries.

The Titianium Black delivers the most sophisticated floating charge on the market, using advanced microprocessor controlled charging and maintenance software, to deliver the optimum amount of charge for the battery’s condition. This advanced method prevents overcharging, which can shorten the battery’s lifespan. The Titanium Black is also designed to offer the user effective and easy to follow diagnostics. A backlit LCD voltmeter and ammeter indicates whether the battery is holding the correct charge or if it is requiring a disproportionate amount of power to stay charged.

In addition, protection against reverse polarity, over voltage and over-heating is built-in. Alongside the LCD display are six coloured LED's, indicating power, polarity, battery condition, and recovery mode, so the user can ascertain battery condition and the Titanium Black’s operating mode easily and quickly. The Acumen Titianium Black V&A Smart Charger is priced at £60 inc. VAT and comes complete with a three-metre extension chord, a waterproof lead for permanent connection to your machine’s battery, a crocodile lead for temporary connection, and is even supplied in a stylish steel presentation case.
For further details on the Titanium Black and the complete Acumen range of battery optimisers, call 01264 359922 or visit the link below
