FASTER
Up to 2-3 times faster than traditional models,
quickly starts engine! The Smart Charger delivers more amps,
faster and much more efficiently, to start your vehicle in minutes,
charge a dead battery, or restore an old, tired battery to near-new
condition. Saves time and money!
|
STAGE 1 - BULK/RAPID
START CHARGE
Faster than conventional type chargers, even in
freezing or high temperatures, the charger delivers maximum charging
amperage to "wake up" any 12 Volt battery and allows
for quick engine starting after 3 minutes (based on a serviceable,
discharged, mid-size vehicle battery*). When it reaches a maximum
safe predetermined voltage, the digital sensors automatically
move into stage 2 of the charging process. (*starting time is
based on model VEC090 2/10/20 amp.)

SAFER
Reverse hook-up, short circuit and over-charging protection!
Cannot overcharge any type of vehicle 12 Volt battery. Internal
microprocessor digital controls protect vehicle's electrical
system and sophisticated onboard electronics by regulating charge
levels at a maximum safe predetermined level.
|
STAGE 2- ABSORPTION CHARGE
Maintains the maximum possible charge at a constant safe predetermined
voltage. During this (stage 2) voltage absorption regulation
charge, the charging voltage remains constant, while the actual
charging current is reduced to allow for the maximum proper internal
chemical energy transfer.
|
SMARTER
Three stage charging ensures full 100% charge! Delivers 100%
of its rated output, automatically sensing and distributing the
appropriate, maximum amount of power throughout every step of
the charging process. Vector's proven new technology ensures
that this charger is always charging to it's full rated output
anywhere, regardless of AC power quality or extension cord length.
(See owner's manual for limitations and specifications.)
|
STAGE 3 - TOP-OFF CHARGE
Voltage is automatically maintained and reduced to a predetermined
level while current is adjusted for a safe, effective 100% charge
(step-down regulation mode). Ideal for topping off batteries
that have been in storage. Automatic shut-off at 100% charge
- you can trust this charger to never overcharge any battery,
or cause pressure leaking of acid, even if it is left unattended
while charging in hot summer temperatures.

DIGITAL DIAGNOSTIC DISPLAY
Exclusive Digital LED Display shows Amps and various Diagnostic
Battery Fault Codes to determine actual condition.

ALTERNATOR VOLTAGE CHECK
Can determine if the alternator is outputting within typical
voltage range. NOTE: Alternators and electrical systems vary
widely, so some indications may not be completely accurate. The
test conditions, procedures and possible problems are fully described
in the User's Guide. After an electrical system warm-up period
of ten minutes, the test takes five seconds. An Alternator Good
LED lights if the alternator is within typical range.
|
RECONDITION
New electronic pulse technology reverses the natural insulating
sulfate buildup on plates in as little as 12 to 24 hours. Reduces
the buildup, significantly improving the charge carrying capability
to near- new levels. Hook up the charger, push the RECONDITION
button and the rest is automatic. Of course, shorted or open
cells will not be fixed.

Vector's Pure DC Output Current
Compared To Conventional Charger Output - Pure DC Output - output
current provides a faster, more complete and stable charge. Charger
output can not damage sensitive electronics that may be operating
while charging. The output is 100% true to specifications. Many
conventional chargers Pulsating DC Output is significantly below
rated amperage specifications. Compare the wave forms taken from
calibrated laboratory instrumentation and see the difference.
Actual measurements are based on use of a Vector 10 Amp Smart
Battery Charger and a conventional 10 Amp charger.
