Optimate 80W Solar Pulse Charger, Tester & Maintainer Travel Kit

The Optimate 80W Solar Pulse Charger, Tester & Maintainer Travel Kit supports you in maintaining and monitoring 12V lead-acid batteries using an 80W solar panel and a pulse-charging controller. You use the system s solar conversion, multi-stage programme and battery monitoring functions to keep batteries active during the day and assess their condition overnight.Discover the key features of this kit:80W Polycrystalline Solar Panel: The panel uses an 80-watt polycrystalline cell array rated at 12V nominal and up to 22V maximum, supported by an aluminium frame with four corner mounting brackets and a 2m output cable, which enables steady solar collection throughout the day and provides you with a consistent charging source for maintaining 12V batteries from 20Ah to 320Ah.TM-523 Solar Smart Charger-Controller: This controller delivers up to 6.67A from the panel and produces a controlled 3 5A pulse current, using efficient dual-conversion technology and a six-step charge programme displayed through a 4-LED panel, which helps you follow battery progress through SAVE, CHARGE and MAINTAIN stages and supports long-term battery care.Six-Step Charge and Maintenance Cycle: The cycle covers solar input testing, battery saving, bulk charging, optimisation, maintenance and overnight monitoring, which allows you to manage battery care in a structured way and ensures your battery receives the correct charging activity for its condition across changing sunlight levels.Day/Night Automatic Switching: The controller detects when sunlight drops below operating level and automatically switches from charging mode to a three-second interval monitoring mode, which gives you around-the-clock feedback on battery status and helps you plan when a battery may need attention.Low-Voltage Recovery Start: The system initiates charging from as low as 1V, using a managed pulse to recover deeply discharged STD, AGM and GEL batteries, which gives you the opportunity to restore batteries that would otherwise remain unusable and supports better long-term performance.Full Electronic Protection: The controller includes spark suppression, automatic shut-down if short-circuited or disconnected, and safeguards for vehicle electronics, which protects both the charging system and your battery, allowing you to connect the kit with confidence during extended use.Weatherproof IP54 Rating: The panel and controller are housed in weather-resistant casings suitable for outdoor mounting, which supports installation on walls, roofs or stands and gives you reliable operation in changing weather conditions.Adjustable Stand and Anchor Points: The stand allows you to set the panel at an angle that suits local sunlight, with four anchor points sized for standard pegs or stakes and a crossbar that accepts added weight, which helps you secure the panel in open spaces and stabilise it during windy conditions.Carry Bag for Travel Use: The kit includes a nylon travel case designed to store the panel, stand, controller and cables, which supports easy transport and helps you keep the equipment organised when you move between locations.Outdoor-Rated Connection Leads: The supplied OptiMate O-1 weatherproof battery lead and O-4 clamp set, combined with the 1m controller cable, give you several connection options, which helps you set up the system neatly on vehicles, equipment or batteries installed in fixed positions.This kit supports reliable charging in situations where your vehicle or equipment spends long hours parked in outdoor areas, giving you a practical way to maintain battery condition without relying on mains power. You can set up the panel, connect the controller and allow the system to manage charging automatically, which is useful when you want dependable battery activity through seasonal use. With its travel case, adjustable stand and weatherproof components, it becomes a smart addition to your vehicle setup when you need a steady, maintenance-light solution for battery upkeep at home or on the move.
