Xtreme Charge® Introduces Dual-Station 12-Volt Maintenance Charger
When One Charger Just Won't Do SOUTHLAKE, TX< June 16, 2008<To better service
those needing to charge and
maintain more than one battery at a time, PulseTech® Products Corporation has
introduced the Xtreme Charge X2, a ruggedly designed dual-station 12-volt
maintenance charger.
Most
households today employ multiple 12-volt batteries used in automobiles, light
trucks, motorcycles, boats, lawn and garden tractors and off-roaders. In
situations like these use of a single-station maintenance charger although
possible, requires more user intervention to support the ongoing needs of
today's power hungry and seasonally used vehicle batteries. The new X2 makes
routine multiple battery care a reality and provides consumers with the highest
battery performance and extended useful life.
PulseTech Products Corporation, which last year introduced the highly
successful Xtreme Charge®, the world's first true Next Generation 12-volt
battery charger, has responded to customer requests for a dual station charger
that will charge, maintain and desulfate all 12-volt lead-acid batteries <two at
a time.
"The simple reality is, today's electronically feature packed and seasonally
used vehicles require the Xtreme Charge maintenance system," said Smokey White,
VP Sales and Marketing for PulseTech Products Corporation's Consumer Products.
The simple plug and play operation of the Xtreme Charge facilitates safe and
ongoing maintenance charging allowing consumers to enjoy battery performance and
service over a lifetime extended by up to five times through application of a
patented PULSE Technology. With the X2, the service and is doubled!²
In addition to family vehicles, White said the commercial application for the
Xtreme Charge X2 would equally apply to many dual battery 24-volt systems, which
are composed of two 12-volt batteries connected in series. Potential uses would
include generators, transit, tour and/or charter buses, private coaches, heavy
trucks, off-highway/construction equipment, fork and scissor lifts and
alternative energy applications. Simply connect each battery, separately via the
two available charging stations.
The CUL approved Xtreme Charge X2 is designed to be a maintenance charger for
any type of 12-volt lead-acid battery. Like its single station sibling the
XC100, during the initial connection, Xtreme Charge X2 automatically determines
the appropriate rate of charge based on the battery's specific size and
condition. It tests the battery continually for as long as it's is connected to
the charger to determine the optimal bulk or float charge rate. The test step
also incorporates a Bad Battery indication if it determines the battery is
either faulty and cannot be re-charged or is below 7 volts. As part of the
five-stage charging process, Xtreme Charge X2 continually
PULSE Charges to minimize the size of lead sulfate crystals allowing the
battery to accept as much charge as possible. This patented PulseTech process
ensures that new batteries will stay in like-new condition while dramatically
improving the performance and life expectancy of older batteries.
The Xtreme Charge X2 works with all types and sizes of 12-volt lead-acid
batteries including standard flooded, AGM, Gel and maintenance-free (from less
than 10ah to over 150 ah).
The unit has a MSRP of $189.95. The Xtreme Charge X2 features four built in
wall mount tabs and includes 2 fuse-protected quick-disconnect battery clamps
and lugs, important safety instructions, and a quick-start guide. It comes with
a five-year warranty.
