The Batteryminder 2012-obd2 is a cutting-edge 12-volt, 2 amp charger, maintainer, and desulfator designed for worldwide usage. This model uniquely connects via your vehicle’s OBD2 port, offering a convenient and intelligent way to maintain your battery’s health. Guaranteed to prevent overcharging, it’s engineered with temperature compensation to ensure optimal charging in any climate, from freezing cold to scorching heat.
Key Features and Benefits
This BatteryMINDer model is packed with features to maximize battery life and performance:
- OBD2 Connector Convenience: Utilizing the SAE to OBD2 connector, the BatteryMINDer 2012-OBD2 allows for battery maintenance directly through your vehicle’s onboard OBD2 port. This eliminates the need for direct battery access, simplifying the maintenance process.
- Intelligent Charging with No Overcharge Risk: Leave it connected without worry. The BatteryMINDer is guaranteed to never overcharge your battery, regardless of connection duration.
- Temperature Compensated Charging: An integrated ambient temperature sensor ensures precise charging, whether in hot summer conditions or cold winter climates. For even greater accuracy, especially when the charger and battery are in different temperature environments, an optional “at the battery” sensor is available. This ensures your battery is neither undercharged nor overcharged due to temperature fluctuations.
- Diagnostic LED Indicators: Clear LED indicators provide real-time feedback on the charger’s status, including power, reverse polarity, battery weakness, load, bad cell, testing, desulfating, temperature compensation, charging stage, and charge level. These indicators make it easy to monitor the battery’s condition and the charging process.
- Extends Battery Life and Capacity: The BatteryMINDer is designed to not only maintain but also maximize your battery’s lifespan and capacity. It actively works to recondition weak batteries, bringing them back to optimal performance.
- Patented Pulse Desulfation Technology: Utilizing automatic high-frequency pulse desulfation (U.S. patented), this unit effectively combats sulfation, a major cause of reduced battery life and performance in all lead-acid batteries, including AGM and Gel types. This process is crucial for maintaining battery health and longevity.
- Plug ‘n Run Simplicity: Operation is incredibly simple with its Plug ‘n Run design. There are no buttons to push; just connect and let the BatteryMINDer take care of your battery.
- Microprocessor Controlled Precision: A microprocessor-controlled system ensures accurate and precise charging and maintenance throughout the unit’s lifetime. This advanced control system is key to the BatteryMINDer’s reliability and effectiveness.
- Safety and Efficiency: The unit is FCC certified and features short circuit, spark, polarity, and thermal runaway protection. It also boasts automatic disconnect and resume in case of AC power interruptions. Its efficient design ensures low operating costs.
- Battery Condition Indication: A built-in battery condition indicator provides a quick assessment of your battery’s health.
- Worldwide Compatibility: With a 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz input, the BatteryMINDer 2012-OBD2 is designed for worldwide use.
- Multiple Battery Maintenance Capability: For users needing to maintain multiple batteries, the BatteryMINDer can maintain up to 6 batteries at once (6 or 12 Volt in parallel) with the use of optional BatteryMINDer Y-Connectors.
