View larger.
Plenty of power
The BT-TWIN 800 charger has two separate 12 volt outputs with 800 millamps of pure, constant current charging power. These two outputs mean that the unit is able to charge two batteries at the same time. In addition, other valuable power related features include a powerful "brain" (IC chip) that allows the charger to automatically monitor, charge, and then maintain your battery without harming it or sapping energy from it, and an easy to read and understand battery charge and status lights at the top of the unit. Although it is not recommend to operate this charger in extreme environmental conditions, it will charge batteries sized for ATV's, watercraft, motorcycles, boats, or just about any type of motor-sport vehicle. This unit will work anywhere in the world with an international universal input range of 100-240 AC Volts at 50/60 Hz.

Striking V-Twin Design
As its name indicates, the BT-TWIN 800 is a very close replica of the popular V-Twin motorcycle engine configuration. In addition, the unit contains an internal sound chip that mimics the sound of a motorcycle engine starting when you connect the charger to a battery. For your convenience, there is also a button to let you activate the sound at any time. This unique outer and finish does require a little extra care to avoid the risk of cosmetic damage to the housing, but this is easily done by simply exercising a little caution when handling the BT-Twin 800. Also, do not forget that this is an electrical appliance. Always use caution when handling appliances that are connected to AC power, or any other type of electrical power source.

Lightweight, Mobile Design
The BT-Twin 800 International battery charger is not designed to be mounted permanently on any surface, instead it has four nonskid pads under its base that allow it to sit on a level surface, like a table or work bench, and not move excessively while being used. This combined with the fact that it is very light--less than two pounds without cables--makes it very easy to use in the various areas that you store unused vehicles close to AC power sources.

Key Features:

  • Classic V-Twin motorcycle outer housing which mimics the sound of a motorcycle engine starting when you connect the charger to a battery.
  • Built-in "Supersmart" technology directed by the unit's IC chip not only fully charges your vehicle's battery when not in use, but safely maintains it at the proper storage voltage.
  • Sparkproof, as well as short circuit and reverse polarity protected.

*Note: All Deltran battery chargers will charge all types of lead acid batteries: either flooded (standard STD), sealed maintenance free Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM), or sealed maintenance free gelled electrolyte (GEL) batteries. However, for optimum battery performance in deep cycle applications (for example, running a trolling motor), it is best to chose the Deltran charger that has the charging software specifically designed for the battery type. Fortunately, since the technical staff at Deltran has developed charging software that works equally well for both STD & AGM batteries, the only choice to be made is between 2 models: either STD & AGM or GEL software.

Three-year Limited Warranty
Deltran provides a limited three-year warranty on its Battery Tender BT-TWIN International Battery Charger (materials and workmanship only).
