OptiMate DC-DC 12V 2A, the ideal off-grid charging and maintenance device for your 12V lead-acid or 12.8V LifePO4/LFP lithium battery that draws power from another 12V battery - no AC required!

Review: Super Lösung, wenn man das Auto in einer Garage ohne 230v Stromanschluss überwintern lassen möchte. Gibt wenige fertige DC-DC Lösungen und der OptiMate ist mit seinen ca.90€ leider wirklich die günstigste. Funktioniert einwandfrei, nur könnte der Hersteller flexiblere Kabel verwenden, die verbauten werden bei Minusgraden sehr steif.
Review: I use this to trickle charge a 100ah lifepo4 battery from my lighter socket in my van. Works great for keeping the battery topped up between camping trips. No issues so far and really easy to install. Good build quality too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this charger allow the battery being charged to back feed to the charging battery? I want to use it to charge a battery mounted on a trailer .**
A: Hello,

The TM500 will use the source battery to charge a secondary battery; it will not back feed current into the main (source battery).

 

An example that people use is to use the trailer’s starter battery to charge a powersport battery while driving the trailer.

 

Hope this helps.

**Q: Can I use Led acid to charge lithium?**
A: No,

**Q: Will this charger attain a higher output voltage than it's power source?**
A: It depends what the user means upon this question. Here I explain by two viewpoints.

 

From energy converting point of view, of course that input power energy is bigger than output energy. The energy is calculated as voltage times current.
From voltage point of view, input voltage can be less than output voltage, so input voltage of source battery or power source can be less than under-charged battery. For example, input battery voltage can be 13V while output battery voltage can be 13.6V. But input current must be bigger than output current.  So, energy of input as voltage times current is larger than that of output voltage times current.

**Q: See that it is stated for use with lower AH batteries. I’m looking to charge 110ah batteries with no more than 20% discharge. May this work?**
A: It would be like a maintenance charge. It’s max about 2 amps so about 10 hours to get 20ah

マンション駐車場ではAC電源が利用できないため、ポタ電からの12Vでバッテリーの補充電に利用中。300Whのポタ電から、A/C出力だと変換効率の点で2日ほどしか持たず実用的ではないが、D/Cであれば10日間ほど補充電を続けられる。
