C-Tek Battery Chargers

Battery chargers are becoming a key tool in the workshop or garage. Modern day vehicles are more and more reliant on good conditioned batteries to start and power all the electronics within the vehicle. It is a common myth that a battery is recharged when the vehicle is being driven, this is not the case! All that happens is the batteries lost capacity is replaced; a classic example is a stereo.

Using a stereo while parked will use battery power that will not be replaced, the batteries will discharge and the vehicle will not start, which means that the batteries need to be recharged not replaced.

The development of heavy-goods transport vehicles continues apace with the introduction of more appliances and many new traveling comforts. The vehicles are started and shut down using high frequency signals and the electronics are in use even when the engine is switched off. It has become all the more common that batteries do not have enough power, and expensive emergency assistance has become a routine feature in the everyday life of haulage contractors.

If you use a CTEK battery charger, the risk of electronic equipment losing power is lost; you do not need to disconnect batteries before charging. Also working on a vehicle with diagnostic equipment is a potential battery drain, applying a charger before work commences will keep the battery in tip top condition.

With the correct battery charging, maintenance and care, batteries will enjoy an extremely long service life and their original capacity is retained during this time. If you also have SUPPLY mode on the battery chargers, you can provide a power supply even when the batteries are disconnected, which means that you do not lose important system settings that need a continuous supply of power.

All heavy-goods transport, cars, buses and light commercials need good battery chargers. While the specification of the needs vary, CTEK offer the safest and most effective solutions for the whole range of needs.
