Generally, during winter periods, motorcycles accumulate fewer kilometers, or spend a lot of time stopped due to bad weather.
Due to these periods of inactivity, batteries discharge and, in extreme cases, can even sulfate, significantly reducing their lifespan. It is therefore important to charge them periodically or use a battery maintainer to maintain optimal battery voltage.
If we install a quick-charge socket, we'll also enjoy the convenience of charging the battery without having to disassemble anything—just plug it in and go, just like when we charge our cell phone.
The Optimate also has a quick-release connector that allows us to monitor the battery status at all times, so we know whether it needs charging or not. A green light indicates that everything is OK, ready to ride; a yellow light tells us we can ride without problems, but if we don't do it soon, the battery will need to be charged; finally, a red light tells us to charge the battery as soon as possible to avoid permanent damage.
This system has another advantage: when starting the motorcycle, it allows us to check if the charging system (alternator and regulator) is working correctly, as indicated by the green light.
Installation takes minutes, and its universal SAE quick connector is compatible with most chargers and maintainers with this type of connector.
