6V and 12V Charging
Designed to charge and maintain 6V and 12V conventional lead acid batteries, the OC-61201 incorporates a battery voltage selection switch, which allows the user to select between two voltage outputs. Be sure you select the 12V setting when charging a 12 volt battery, and the 6V setting when charging a 6 volt battery.
Crocodile Clips + Ring Terminal Connectors
The charger comes standard with a fly lead and 2 different kinds of connectors, crocodile clips and a ring terminal type. The ring type is perfect for permanent connection to your battery. You can connect the lead to the battery and tuck the lead away while you are using your vehicle and when you return to the garage simply plug the lead into the charger.Battery Charging vs. Battery Maintenance
What's the difference between the two and which battery charger suit your requirements best? Firstly you need to determine whether you need to recharge a flat battery entirely or just keep a battery at full charge.
Battery charging is when you are requiring to recharge a flat or dead battery to full. Battery maintenance on the other hand is when you just want to keep a battery topped up. For instance, if you're storing a classic car that you only drive a few times a month but want to ensure it's ready to go on a sunny afternoon you would require battery maintenance as opposed to battery charging. This is often referred to as trickle charging a battery. All OzCharge battery chargers perform both functions, and understanding each charger's limits is important. The OC-61201 is designed for charging smaller applications such as motorcycles and other small batteries. However, the OC-61201 is also a perfect battery maintainer (or trickle charger) for a car, boat, or buggy.
