Overview
You might wonder why you can’t just opportunity charge with a conventional charger. For years, battery and charger manufacturers have discouraged opportunity charging and that was because the charger controls weren’t in place to monitor and control the charge cycle. Now with more intelligent chargers, it is possible to opportunity charge with minimal effect on battery life.
Prestolite Power’s Ultra Maxx charges batteries right in the truck, during breaks and shift changes. The result? Your truck batteries can achieve a consistent state of charge without those unproductive trips to the battery room… and without battery changing. That’s because the Ultra Maxx opportunity charger senses battery voltage and temperature from the BID module to optimize charge parameters. The Ultra Maxx can also charge batteries at conventional and valve regulated rates, maximizing your current battery and charger investment.
