6-in-1 Device - Combines a powerful jump starter, battery charger, battery maintainer, battery desulfator, battery tester, and alternator tester into one device
High-Powered Performance - The Schumacher SC1308 delivers a 100 cranking amps engine start, which is strong enough to jump start cars, trucks, boats, and other large batteries, along with 30 amp boost, 6 amp charge, and 2 amp maintain modes
Wide Compatibility - The SC1308 is compatible with 6 volt and 12 volt standard, AGM, and deep-cycle batteries
Advanced Diagnostics - The Schumacher Electric SC1308 features a built-in battery and alternator tester that determines charge level and helps diagnose electrical problems
Fully Automatic - The charger automatically detects connected 6 volt and 12 volt batteries and when the battery is fully charged, the unit stops charging and shifts to maintain mode
Boost Battery Health - Includes multi-stage charging and float mode monitoring for optimum battery health and extended battery life
Reverse Hook-Up Protection - With built-in advanced reverse hook-up protection, the charger protects against damage if the clamps are not properly connected
The unit will automatically detect a connected battery’s voltage and once the battery is fully charged will halt charging and shift to maintain mode.
VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS
The SC1308’s battery and alternator tests allows users to determine their battery’s charge level and diagnose vehicle electrical problems.
BUILT-IN SAFETY
Protect your battery and the SC1308 with reverse hook-up protection, which prevents damage if the clamps are reversed.
MULTI-STAGE CHARGING
The SC1308 uses an advanced charging algorithm designed to keep your battery in top condition and extend its lifespan.
Will this charge a completely dead battery?
Yes, the SC1308 will charge a completely dead battery, unless the battery is bad. If you are using the engine start feature, we recommend first using the boost mode to quickly add energy to the battery.
Does this unit have internal batteries or is it powered by AC?
The SC1308 does not have an internal battery. It must be plugged into any AC outlet before charging will start.
Will the SC1308 desulfate a battery?
Yes, the SC1308 has an automatic desulfation mode. If the battery requires desulfation, the unit will automatically switch to desulfation during charging. Desulfation can take up to 10 hours.
Does the SC1308 use multi-stage charging?
Yes, the SC1308 is controlled by a microprocessor that employs an advanced charging algorithm to optimize battery health. This passes through several stages including bulk mode, absorption, float mode, and maintain mode.
What does 6A<>2A mean?
When the 6A<>2A charge rate is selected the SC1308's microprocessor will automatically adjust the amperage between 6A and 2A as needed to fully charge the battery and then maintain the charge.
