Motorcycle / Powersport Gold Series
Designed with the expert in mind that wants to select the right program to charge their battery, the GOLD SERIES OptiMate 4 Quad Program is the ultimate power-sport battery saving charger for your 2-wheel adventure, touring, cruiser or performance motorcycle, or your 4-wheel ATV & Side by Side UTV, or your personal watercraft.
OptiMate 4 Quad Program offers four different charging programs, for all types and sizes of engine-start (SLI) battery used in power-sport, including 12V lead-acid (Pb – classic wet cell or sealed / VRLA AGM or GEL) and 12.8V / 13.2V lithium (LFP / LiFePO4).
Programs 1 (Pb) and 3 (LFP) work best when connecting directly to the battery, automatically activating from as low as 0.5 Volts for ‘no supervision’ save, charge, test and 24-7 maintenance of your battery. Program 3 (LFP) also include BMS reset and ‘wake up’ of a lithium (LFP) battery from zero Volts.
Programs 2 (Pb CAN-bus) and program 4 (LFP CAN-bus) are specific to BMW motorcycles (from 2004) that have the 12V socket controlled by the motorcycle’s ZFE CAN-bus system. OptiMate 4 Quad Program automatically initializes, then charges and maintains through the BMW motorcycle’s 12V socket, safely within the parameters of the BMW CAN-bus system. During long term maintenance OptiMate 4 Quad Program monitors the battery and will deliver charge as needed, to keep that battery in perfect condition. TIP: If your BMW motorcycle’s battery is dead-flat (no reaction or ignition lights when turned on) you will need program 1 or 3 to save the battery.
OptiMate 4 Quad Program include OptiMate’s best battery saving algorithm in program 1 for lead-acid (Pb) and program 3 for lithium (LFP) batteries. All save modes are vehicle safe, if OptiMate 4 QP senses sensitive vehicle electronics, it disables save mode functions; for best results disconnect the battery from the vehicle and then OptiMate 4 can use maximum saving power to bring your battery back to life. After saving it will test and indicate your battery’s state of health. Guaranteed, if OptiMate 4 cannot save your battery, no other power-sport / motorcycle charger will!
OptiMate 4 Quad Program – the best of all OptiMate power-sport chargers combined into a single product, making it the most advanced power-sport battery charger in the world!

Motorcycle / Powersport Lithium Series
Designed for automatic and easy use, but packed with intelligence to correctly reset, save, charge, test and maintain 12.8V / 13.2V Lithium LFP (LiFePO4) starter or auxiliary battery, an OptiMate Lithium SERIES battery charger is the expert choice for your high performance race, cruiser or adventure motorcycle with a Li-Ion LFP/LiFePO4 battery.
OptiMate has been an industry leader in Li-Ion (LFP / LiFePO4) starter battery knowledge since 2010, focusing on optimal battery care and longevity. Even though the Li-Ion (LFP / LiFePO4) battery works similar to lead-acid in the 12V to 14.4V range of a motorcycle’s electrical system, when the lithium battery is deeply discharged below that range, especially below 10V, it is vulnerable to damage and requires a different way of recovery compared to lead-acid. OptiMate Lithium delivers low power charge whilst actively testing to see how the battery reacts, so that it can determine if the battery can be safely recharged. If not it will immediately stop and indicate battery error, preventing the battery from overheating. If the discharged battery is healthy and reacts as expected, it will be delicately and precisely brought up to its normal voltage range before it receives full current charging again.
OptiMate Lithium series chargers feature AmpMatic current adjusting technology, low voltage pulse recovery from 0.5V, active BMS (battery management system) reset for batteries with built-in resettable protection systems, state of health testing and temperature compensation that reduces or prevents charging in extreme cold or heat.

Motorcycle / Powersport Off-Grid Series
Designed for use without AC power, be it DC-to-DC or Solar, the OptiMate OFF-GRID series include state of the art solar technology to optimize charging from any solar panel, and DC-to-DC charging from 12V-16V sources.
The DC-to-DC 2 Amp battery charger is ideal for saving, charging and maintaining your 12V lead-acid (Pb) or 12.8V Li-Ion (LFP / LiFePO4 technology) from another 12V battery or 12V to 16V DC source. For example, you can charge your motorcycle battery from your camper or your car. During long term maintenance the OptiMate DC-to-DC will draw just enough power from the source battery to maintain the target battery in your motorcycle or power-sport vehicle / craft, ensuring that the source battery can deliver power for longer.
The OptiMate Solar DUO 10W battery charger delivers power to your 12V battery anywhere! OptiMate’s smart solar DUO controller delivered with the panel can safely charge 12V lead-acid and 12.8V / 13.2V Lithium LFP (LiFePO4) batteries.
