You pick the output voltage using a slide switch on the front of the unit, so a single charger covers a range of common battery sizes. It runs on a wide input range of AC100-240V at 50\/60Hz, which makes it suitable for use in the UK and abroad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe charger comes with a fixed 1.8m flylead ending in a pair of crocodile clips, so you can clamp straight onto your battery terminals without extra leads or adaptors. Two LEDs sit on the front to keep you informed: a green LED shows charging, while a red LED flags a polarity problem. A built-in poly-switch adds over-current protection and polarity reverse protection, helping to guard the battery against damage while it charges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a maximum output of 600mA, the CHR004 is a steady charger for smaller lead acid batteries rather than a fast bulk charger. The unit measures 82 x 56 x 80mm and weighs just 125g, so it takes up little space on a bench or in a toolbox. Note that batteries are not included. This is a practical choice for keeping motorcycle, alarm, mobility and other small sealed lead acid batteries topped up and ready to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAC100-240V @ 60\/50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax. current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600mA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\/6\/12V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLead length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e82mm x 56mm x 80mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.12KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/690004UK_1b4d1e10-28ae-4a2b-af94-2964a8f67b83.pdf?v=1785042395\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich battery voltages does the CHR004 support?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt charges 2V, 6V and 12V lead acid batteries.
