To the automotive professional – the fleet manager, shop owner, or master technician – a battery charger is a core piece of maintenance equipment. Its performance directly affects service quality. Therefore, it is important to select the right brand and model.
Professionals choose Clore Automotive battery chargers, particularly those under the PRO-LOGIX brand. Their reasons for doing so are solid. Any automotive professional who demands precision and reliability in his shop equipment would do well to take a look at Clore products. Their professional battery charges are designed from the ground up to meet the complex demands of modern automotive maintenance.
An Intelligent Approach to Charging
Today’s automotive professionals work in a high-tech environment. They deal with things like battery-dependent onboard electronics and a host of microprocessors and digital controllers scattered throughout a vehicle’s electrical system. As such, a one-size-fits-all approach to battery maintenance is a recipe for disaster.
An intelligent approach to battery charging is non-negotiable. Thanks to its focus on Intelligent Charging Logic, Clore Automotive is the obvious choice for professional-grade battery chargers. Intelligent Charging Logic translates to:
1. Multi-Phase Charging
Multi-phase charging is the next step in the evolution of charging batteries in the best way possible. Rather than blast charging, a multi-phase charger goes through a pre-programmed routine to optimize charging and minimize the risk of damage.
Deeply discharged or sulfated batteries get less initial current in Soft Start Mode. As the voltage is brought up slowly and safely, more current is delivered. All charging episodes are made safer with Enhanced Maintenance Mode, a mode that cycles between periodic rest and active phases.
2. Temperature Compensation
Clore Automotive’s approach to smart battery charging also compensates for temperature. Temperature compensation is a standard design feature based on the premise that battery charge acceptance changes pretty significantly with ambient temperatures. A cold battery requires a higher voltage, while a warm battery needs lower voltage.
A Rock Steady Power Supply
Another thing that sets Clore Automotive professional battery chargers apart is the built-in Power Supply Mode. This particular feature often convinces fleet managers to go with the Clore brand.
In Power Supply Mode a professional-grade battery charger becomes a critical piece of equipment that prevents voltage drops during module programming. Maintaining a consistent voltage prevents bricking an ECU or PCM module during flashing.
Another helpful use of this mode is to maintain consistent power while running advanced scanning tools or performing electronic calibrations. Any such operations can quickly drain a battery and lead to false fault codes. Professionals have no interest in dealing with such nonsense. They do not have to when using a battery charger in Power Supply Mode.
Versatile Chargers That Do Not Compromise
Professionals prefer Clore Automotive battery chargers because they know the Clore brand offers versatility without compromise. With Clore and PRO-LOGIX, professionals can invest in a single charger that handles flooded, AGM, gel cell, and spiral wound batteries. They don’t need a separate charger for every battery type.
They also get access to advanced features like Forced Start Mode that overrides the low voltage cutoff when charging deeply discharged batteries. It is all wrapped in a heavy-duty case with robust construction capable of withstanding the rigors of a busy service center.
Battery chargers are a dime a dozen. Anyone can pick one up at the local auto part store or big box department store. But for professionals, not just any battery charger will do. They need a charger capable of filling multiple roles in their busy shops. They need charges built to last. They get everything they need with professional battery chargers from Clore Automotive.
