🔋 OptiMATE 4 CAN-bus 8/9-step 12V 1A Battery Charger-Tester-Maintainer - Ultimate Solution for Battery Saving Review

It works but I have to trust it to do what it's supposed to because with all the lights and flashing I don't understand what it's doing or how to do it "reasonable" changes settings if necessary. I'm an IT professional with over 35 years in the technology industry and this is the ONLY device I've come across that doesn't make any intuitive sense. Put an ugly screen on it and use English for god's sake. we don't speak the language of flickering, flickering, light. Close it to change settings…

I bought this dual mode because I wanted to charge the battery using the jack connector next to the key instead of removing the fairing and connecting directly to the battery. . Unfortunately, the CanBus mode doesn't work on my bike, even though the connector fits. I wrote to Optimate but received no reply. The instructions could have been better, I was able to switch modes so I'm pretty sure I was in CanBus mode. Eventually I switched back to direct mode, removed the fairing, attached the…

I ordered two OptiMATE 4 CAN-Bus Edition models for our two GS because they come with a BMW DIN plug. Switching between the two charging options CAN bus and direct charging is easy and makes the device versatile. I always lock bikes between rides. OptiMATE does the rest to keep your batteries in top condition and ready for your next ride. The save function is another useful feature. I had to use it and it saved me a battery that no other charger could bring back to life. The only thing I would…

I bought this to charge from the stock socket on my bike. When first turned on, the Optimate turns on the power port and is ready to begin testing and charging cycles. However, after a few minutes, the bike's ECU seems to turn the socket off again, and unfortunately the Optimate can't turn it back on. If I turn the Optimate off and on again or turn the bike ignition on, the Optimate reconnects, but after about 2 minutes the port goes offline again and the Optimate can't turn it back on. I don't

This charger could be better. It's almost fully automatic, there's nothing to press or toggle on/off, and it has no buttons. However, it allows the user to switch between CAN bus or direct charging methods. The instructions are the worst I've ever seen on a product. I had to read multiple sources and "work with the math" to figure it all out. Seems to work as intended, but the design is the main downside - difficult to learn and work with. Once you figure it out, it's easy. This charger is not…

I bought this for my 2017 BMW R1200RT to charge my bike via Cambus. I haven't ridden in a while due to COVID and the battery stopped turning the bike. The bike turned on and everything was fine, just not enough power to flip it. As many have said, the lights on this thing are incredibly mysterious. Even after reading the manual I wasn't 100% sure what this charger was doing at any given point. I went ahead and just plugged it into the port and let it do its thing. After about 8 hours I was…

Update 11/01/2021: Found on FB that this charger does NOT work properly with K1600. The information is in Madarin, but I translated it for the people here using Google Translate. The translation is not perfect, but should be understandable. For this reason I am reducing my rating to one star. "The OptiMate 4 Dual Charger for BMW Can-Bus from L2 Heavy Machinery/carTecMate understands the state of charge of the K1600 battery. We know that the unloading speed of this machine is pretty fast…
