ontrary to popular belief the heat of summer is a lot harder on a battery then the cold of winter. Which is why, especially during this time of the season, it’s a good idea for dealers to get a few of their top-moving/top-selling batteries off the shelf, out of the box, filled up, fully charged and ready to go. A Deltran Multi-Bank Battery Tender® makes that easy.
     There’s no other battery-charger company offering all the Multi-Bank options that Deltran has, chargers able to service a number of batteries all at once. With Deltran there’s a Multi-Bank Battery Tender to fit every need. There are 2-Bank units, 4-Bank, 5-Bank and 10-Bank Battery Tender charging stations. Even the super-powerful 5-Amp Power Tender Plus has a place in the shop this time of year; it’s the one fully automatic charger able to fully recharge just about any battery inside one hour’s time. With all those options open, Deltran Battery Tender has you covered.
     A fully charged battery is essential to a modern motorcycle. With electronic engine control now the norm and with all the accessories common to bikes these days a fully charged battery isn’t just nice, it’s mandatory. Any number of performance complaints can be traced directly to a weak battery, and by weak we don’t mean just stone cold dead. Today’s batteries must be kept at peak voltage all the time. Anything less is unacceptable. That’s where those Deltran Battery Tenders come in, and why this time of the year it makes good sense to keep a few of those most called for batteries filled up, fully charged and ready for immediate sale and installation.
     Which Multi-Bank Battery Tender you choose depends entirely on your shop’s needs. The only difference between all of the various units is the initial charging power. The smaller 2- and 4-Bank units both feature the standard Battery Tender Plus 1.25 Amp charging cycle while the hard-core 5- and 10-Bank shop chargers come with a more powerful 2 Amp charging cycle, sometimes useful to get a bunch of batteries charged up just a little faster. But when all is said and done the charging programs in all of those Multi-Bank Battery Tenders are exactly the same. Every Deltran Multi-Bank Battery Tender can be hooked up to a number of batteries and forgotten about, even left overnight. All of those batteries will be fully charged and ready to go when the doors open up in the morning, and there’s never any worry about out-gassing, overheating or bubbling over. All that’s possible, of course, because once those chargers have brought the batteries up to full charge they immediately switch into the automatic “float/maintenance” mode that every Battery Tender is so well known for.
     The heat of the season is here. Right now is the toughest time of the year for a motorcycle battery, and lots of them are going to fail. You have the replacements in stock. Now’s the time to get those batteries ready to go and ready to sell. Deltran can help you do it. In fact, Deltran is the only company that can help you to do it and all those Multi-Bank Battery Tenders are in stock at Parts Unlimited. Pick one that’s right for your shop and use it.
