Ducati Lithium Battery Charge Maintainer – 69929011A

Battery charger specially developed for 12.8 V lithium iron phosphate (LIFEPO4) batteries, not suitable for NICD, NIMH, other types of LI-ION or non-rechargeable batteries. The device, made by industry leader tecMATE to Ducati’s exclusive design, is designed to lengthen the life of batteries by maintaining their charge during periods of low motorcycle use. The operation of the maintainer is based on a fully automatic, microprocessor-controlled algorithm that reduces the voltage to the maintenance level once the maximum charge is reached and returns to charging mode should the electronic components applied to the motorcycle cause the battery voltage to drop below the optimum level. Developed with the approval of Ducati R&D, the maintainer comes with 3 sets of connections, which allow connection to the battery via the Ducati diagnostic connector (Euro4 / Euro5), via cable with metal eyelets and a resealable cap on the weatherproof connector for a permanent connection to the battery poles, or additional connecting cable with alligator clips, available as an option, to connect the charger to the battery if the battery is removed from the vehicle. In addition, in new models, the device can also be connected directly to the DDA (Ducati Data Acquisition) socket. A device that should not be missing from the equipment of a Ducatista, to protect the motorcycle battery while waiting for the next season on two wheels. Not suitable for non-rechargeable NICD, NIMH, LI-ION batteries.
