Use the Recondition Mode on your KickAss 12V ACDC Chargers to Revive Your AGM Batteries with Recondition

...

Ever found your AGM battery flat as a tack after months of non-use? Or perhaps it's been deeply discharged, and you're worried it's past saving? No problem! The Recondition Mode on KickAss 12V ACDC chargers is here to save the day.

What is AGM Recondition Mode?

AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries are a top pick for off-grid adventurers due to their durability and performance. However, like all batteries, they can lose their charge over time, especially if left unused for extended periods. This is where the AGM Recondition Mode comes into play.

Recondition Mode is a specialised feature designed to revive long-unused or deeply discharged AGM batteries. It works by delivering a controlled high voltage to the battery, breaking down the lead sulphate crystals that form during deep discharges. This process helps restore the battery's capacity and improve its overall performance.

How Does It Work?

Using the Recondition Mode on your KickAss ACDC charger is simple. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Connect Your Charger: Ensure your ACDC charger is properly connected to the AGM battery. Double-check all connections for safety.
  2. Select Recondition Mode: On the charger, select the Recondition Mode. This feature is specifically designed for AGM batteries that have been deeply discharged or left unused.
  3. Start the Reconditioning Process: Once selected, the charger will begin the reconditioning process. This may take several hours, depending on the state of the battery.
  4. Monitor Progress: Keep an eye on the charger’s display. It will show progress and notify you once the reconditioning is complete.
  5. Test Your Battery: After reconditioning, test the battery to ensure it has regained its capacity. You should notice a significant improvement in its performance.

Benefits of Using Recondition Mode

  • Extended Battery Life: Regular use of the Recondition Mode can significantly extend the lifespan of your AGM battery.
  • Improved Performance: Restores lost capacity, ensuring your battery performs at its best.
  • Save Money: Reviving your existing battery saves you the expense of buying a new one.
  • Peace of Mind: Reliable battery performance is crucial for off-grid adventures. Recondition Mode ensures your battery is always ready to go.

When to Use Recondition Mode

Use the Recondition Mode when your AGM battery has been deeply discharged or left unused for a long time. It's also a good idea to run the Recondition Mode periodically as part of your battery maintenance routine.
