1. Entwodiksyon
The OSRAM BATTERYcharge SOLAR 20W is a solar-powered device designed to maintain the charge of 12V automotive batteries. Modern vehicles often have multiple on-board computer systems, such as alarm systems and immobilizers, which consume a low but constant amount of power. This can lead to battery discharge, especially when the vehicle is not in regular use. This solar battery maintenance device provides an environmentally friendly solution to prevent such discharge, ensuring your vehicle's battery remains optimally charged.
