Made any New Year Resolutions yet?

How about spending a little more time looking after your car battery?

And we have made it even easier to simply connect and forget. We have continued to expand our range of charger accessories by launching the Comfort Connect Extension Cable, a 2.5 metre extension cable designed to provide consumers with greater convenience and flexibility. Ideal for situations where the charger has to be plugged into the mains, some distance from the vehicle, the Comfort Connect Extension Cable can be used with all CTEK chargers up to 10A. It is also compatible with all other CTEK accessories and multiple Comfort Connect Extension Cables can be joined together to provide additional length.

Go on, show you car battery you care – Happy New Year from everybody here at CTEK.

All charged to power mobility vehicles

CTEK MXT 4.0 connector plug

We are delighted to announce that we have developed a dedicated disability vehicle connector plug to work with our MXT 4.0 product, a 24V 4A smart battery charger, to help mobility vehicle owners maximise the performance and ensure that maximum range is achieved from their mobility vehicle batteries.

Mobility vehicles are becoming ever-more advanced, being used more frequently and under more demanding conditions than ever before. As a result, battery care is a fast growing issue, particularly as maximum range and life expectancy drops rapidly due to inadequate charging and maintenance.

Around 80% of all battery failures are due to sulphation caused by undercharging – a direct result of lack of proper care and maintenance, and with lack of adequate maximum battery range being the biggest issue facing mobility vehicle owners, so we have launched the new generation, MXT 4.0 to deliver a safe, simple, intelligent approach to comprehensive battery maintenance that is fast, effective and easy to use.

By not being charged to 100% capacity the mobility vehicle battery will be cycled more often than necessary which will increase stratification, drastically reducing capacity. Furthermore, sulphation will occur, reducing capacity event further and shortening battery life significantly. Our research shows that the MXT 4.0 can extend the life of the battery by as much as three times as well as maximising range.
