You know how it is. You’ve been cooped up all winter long and then the first breath of spring and warm weather arrives. With great anticipation, you find your gear and head to the garage to take the cover off your bike as you prepare to greet the first warm air in months. You check the bike, climb aboard, hit the start switch, and then …nothing. The battery is as dead as can be. But wait! It doesn’t have to be that way when next spring rolls around! The folks at Deltran Corporation have the product that will eliminate those “click-click blues.” Battery Tender is a charger that is designed to deliver a constant charge to the battery of your vehicle. Mike Prelec, President of Deltran Corporation, told us that the product actually came about by accident more than a decade ago while engineers were working on a similar project. Consequently, that research resulted in a device that is designed to keep the battery peaked all of the time! Now you may want to know, “How does it do that?” Glad you asked! Powered by technology similar to that found in personal computers of the 1980s, the Battery Tender possesses a microprocessor! That’s precisely the reason that Battery Tender is referred to as the “smart charger!”

According to the company website, all Battery Tender chargers have the five following characteristics: they are fully automatic, they deliver full output power at low AC line conditions, they draw minimal to zero current from batteries, they are compact with lightweight construction, and they offer visual indication of the progress of the battery’s charge. Another great feature of the Battery Tender is that it keeps the battery’s power from dissipating, and from that feature alone, the Battery Tender has the ability to double and possibly triple the life of your battery! That means the Battery Tender will pay for itself quickly, and just think of the convenience of knowing that your battery will always be charged! Now for more good news! Battery Tender is not just for motorcycles! Battery Tender is available for cars, ATVs, boats, golf carts, planes, RVs, or tractors as well! And listen to these endorsements! The Battery Tender has been awarded Rider Magazine’s “Product of the Year” and has been rated #1 by Motorcycle Consumer News. It has also been endorsed and recommended by the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute (MMI) and the American Motorcycle Institute (AMI). They have been endorsed by Interstate, Ford, AC Delco, BMW, Lexus, and many other automotive corporations as well. In addition, their warranty is the strongest in the industry.

Battery Tender is available at a wide variety of motorcycle and automotive parts dealers, and remember, just as it says on their website, “Longer battery life, less maintenance!” That’s what you get from Battery Tender!
