The CTEK Power Inc 56-380 Comfort Indicator with panel connection offers a robust solution for professional automotive and industrial battery maintenance. This integrated panel not only provides instant, clear battery status feedback via a "traffic light" LED system but also features a direct connection point for compatible CTEK chargers.

Key Features

  • Real-time Battery Status: A three-color LED indicator (green, yellow, red) provides immediate visual cues on battery voltage levels, allowing technicians to quickly assess charge status and identify when charging is required. Green indicates over 12.65V (no charging needed), yellow signals 12.4V-12.65V (consider charging), and red warns of below 12.4V (charge immediately to avoid sulfation).
  • Integrated Charging Port: Features a convenient panel-mounted connector, eliminating the need to access hard-to-reach battery terminals for routine charging. Simply plug in a compatible CTEK charger directly to the dash.
  • Battery Longevity: By enabling proactive charging and indicating the onset of harmful sulfation, the Comfort Indicator helps maintain optimal battery performance and significantly prolongs its service life.
  • Professional Compatibility: Engineered to integrate with a wide range of CTEK chargers, including MULTI US 3300, MULTI US 7002, US 0.8, MUS 4.3, MXS 5.0, LITHIUM US, CT5 POWERSPORT, CT5 TIME TO GO, UC 800, and MXS 3.8 models.
  • Durable Construction: Built with high-quality materials to withstand the demands of professional garage and industrial environments, ensuring reliable performance.
  • Easy Installation: Designed for flush panel mounting, routing cables to the battery with permanent M8 eyelet terminals for secure, long-term connection.
