If you park your car for any extended period, this is the charger you need to keep your battery charged at optimum levels.

CTEK battery chargers are simply the best that money can buy. Making the investment in a CTEK battery charger saves time, money and aggravation by maximizing battery life and performance - avoiding the inconvenience and expense of a dead battery.

[ ] Includes two interchangeable connection leads, one with clamps, and one with eyelet terminals; 5 year limited warranty

[ ] Four step, automatic switch charging and three separate charge modes that together allow for easy, convenient, no-watch battery charging

[ ] Charges 12-volt lead-acid batteries (Wet, MF, Gel, AGM and Ca) from 12Ah to 75Ah (charging), 12-120Ah (maintenance)

[ ] Maintenance pulse charging increases battery life and gives superb performance, and patented desulphation functionality allows for the recovery of slightly sulphated batteries

[ ] Compact design with mounting holes allows for permanent assembly, and the charger to be connected for months, makes this charger ideal for motorcycles, cars, lawn mowers, jet skis and any other vehicle with batteries up to 120Ah

CTEK Power's Multi US 3300 is a primary switch mode battery charger, with pulse maintenance and is a part of a series of professional battery chargers from CTEK Sweden AB. These chargers represent the latest technology within battery charging. A recent addition to the CTEK family of "the smartest battery chargers in the world," the Multi US 3300 contains three charging modes, and automatically and easily charges all 12V lead-acid batteries, making it perfect for motorcycles, cars, lawn mowers, jet skis and any other vehicle with batteries up to 120Ah.

Four-step Automatic Battery Charging Cycle
There is no need for any specific knowledge of batteries or their charging methods; the Multi US 3300 will take care of it. The Multi US 3300 utilizes a four-step automatic charging cycle. First, patented desulphation functionality allows for possible reconditioning of batteries that have lost significant power due nonuse. This is followed by Bulk Charging, when 80% of charging takes place; then Absorption Charging which completes charging up to virtually 100%; and finally Pulse/Maintenance Charging, in which the battery receives a pulse of electricity when the voltage drops below 95%, keeping the battery in perfect condition indefinitely when it is not used. If the battery is loaded and the battery’s terminal voltage drops to 12.9V the charger automatically switches back to the beginning of the four-step cycle. Also, the Multi US 3300 can be connected for months and it is specifically developed for seasonal vehicles.

3 Modes for Flexible Use
The Multi US 3300 is specifically developed for different needs, vehicles and batteries. With this in mind user have a choice between three different modes. The low-current mode (the motorcycle icon) is perfect for smaller 12V batteries such as motorbikes, lawnmowers, jet skies, snowmobiles, etc. The higher current mode (the car icon) is for automotive or marine applications with larger batteries. Finally, an additional winter mode (the snowflake) is specifically aimed at charging and maintenance in cold weather. It is also perfectly suited for Optima Red Top batteries.

Charging for All-weather Conditions
A very light and compact charger, but still extremely robust and water and dust resistant (IP65 classification), the Multi US 3300 is designed to charge and maintain batteries, no matter the weather, temperature or situation. The Multi US 3300 is certified for use between –4°F and +122°F. In order to make things easier and more convenient, the Comfort Connect (eyelet terminals) can be permanently connected to the vehicle’s battery.

Designed for Safety and Compatibility
All CTEK models are designed to consider the safety of the user. They are spark free, making the connection much easier and safer considering the gases batteries normally produce. The Multi US 3300 is also protected from reverse-polarity connections and is short-circuit proof. A red light on the charger will simply indicate that the charging cannot begin until the user has connected the charger correctly.

Product Description
The CTEK MULTI US 3300 is the battery charger that all households should own. It is ideal for all your vehicles in the garage with 12 Volt batteries from 1.2-120Ah. It has a special cold mode which is perfect for charging on cold winter days, and can also handle the demanding Optima battery range. The MULTI US 3300 has a 5 year warranty, delivers 0.8/3.6-Ampere and is IP65 classified (Splash and dust proof). All CTEK battery chargers are electronic proof, non-sparking and reverse polarity and short circuit proof. IP 65. 110V. Capacity 1.2-120 Ah. Charging current 3.6-Ampere. Dimensions 6 1/2-inch x 2 1/2-inch x 1 1/2-inch Weight 1.1 pounds.

Input voltage AC: 100–120VAC, 50–60Hz
Output voltage: Nominal:12V
Efficiency: High 85%
Charging voltage: 14.4V/14.7V
Charging current: 0.8/3.3A max
Back current drain*: <1Ah per month
Ripple**: ~2%
Ambient temperature: -4°F to +122°F
Type of charger: 4 step, fully automatic switch mode with pulse maintenance
Type of batteries: 12V lead-acid batteries (Wet, MF, AGM, GEL and Ca)
Battery capacity: 1.2–75Ah (charging) 1.2–120Ah (maintenance)
Dimensions (L x W x H): 6½ x 23/8 x 1½ inches
Insulation class: IP65 (splash and dust proof)
Weight: 1.1lbs

* Back current drain is what drains the battery if the charger is connected without the power cord connected.

** Ripple describes the quality of the current and voltage. A high current ripple heats the battery and shortens its life. A linear charger has a current ripple of 70–400% which is much larger than the maximum 5% for a modern sealed battery. High voltage ripple could harm other equipment that is connected to the battery. The US 3300 delivers voltage and current with very low ripple. The battery has a long service life and there is no risk of damage to other electronic devices connected to the battery.
