PROJECTA EXPANDS INTELLI-START JUMP STARTER RANGE

The innovative range has grown with two new products launched light, EVA storage case, USB charging port and the ability to be used as a powerbank. The IS2000 also features a ‘set and forget’ docking station for hassle-free benchtop charging.

Projecta has grown its market-leading IntelliStart (IS) range with the introduction of two new jump starters, the IS1400 and IS2000, both with patented Rapid Recharge Technology (RRT).

RRT adds efficiency and convenience for users and owners. Once the vehicle has been started, the Intelli-Start Jump Starter can fully replenish the energy that was discharged during the starting process in just 40 seconds. Simply keep the clamps connected to the running vehicle’s battery and the Intelli-Start jump starter is ready for the next emergency.

This technology means Intelli-Start Jump Starters can be used time and time again before needing to be recharged, which makes the product ideal for applications such as roadside assistance or for vehicle holding depots and car yards.

When recharging is finally needed, this can be done back at the workshop, garage or home using the supplied 5V USB charger.

A further benefit of the latest models is their ability to jump start vehicles and machines that use a variety of battery types including Lithium, Wet, AGM, Gel and Calcium.

The IS1400 is suitable for 12V electrical systems and offers 500A clamp power and 1400 peak amps, more than enough to start petrol-powered vehicles up to 7.0L displacement and diesel engines as large as 5.0L.

These capabilities along with a compact design makes the IS1400 an ideal choice to carry in the glovebox, for stowage with 4x4 recovery gear, or to keep on hand at workshops or car yards.

The Intell-Start range is equipped with premium LiFePO4 batteries, the safest lithium technology available.

Projecta says its jump starters also provide more starts with up to 2000 battery cycles – which is states is around four times more than competitor Lithium Cobalt based jump starters. Further, it states this range delivers a substantially longer operating life and provides a smooth and reliable start, time after time.

It reports that added durability comes from the range’s rubber moulded impact and drop resistant housing and IP-rated dust and water ingress protection.

Along with revolutionary battery technology, Projecta says the IS1400 and IS2000 utilise an advanced all-in-one protection system that prevents surges, short circuits and overheating. For novice users a further benefit is that the premium clamps won’t spark if attached incorrectly, won’t damage the vehicle or injure loved ones or employees.

Alemlube says the advanced and userfriendly software, managed through remote control, contributes to deliver an outstandingly convenient user-friendly approach, thanks to the automatic start of the measuring process when a vehicle enters the working area, to the automatic detection of all procedures and to the automatic pre-selection of the vehicle’s specs according to the wheel basis and the automatic locking and unlocking turntables. Alemlube says this means minimum effort for maximum performance.

Further, by minimising efforts and time for wheel alignment measurements, Alemlube says ARGOS can check efficiently all of your customers’ vehicles by generating a clear report of the status of their vehicle, enhancing your business and customer satisfaction.

In summary, Alemlube says ARGOS’ outstanding practicality improves workshop efficiencies. For more information, visit www.alemlube.com.au

The larger – but still compact – IS2000 model provides even further versatility, with its auto sensing clamp connections making it convenient for use on both 12V and 24V electrical systems.

The IS2000 will jump start 12V petrol vehicles with engines up to 8.0L and up to 6.0L for diesels. It can also jump start 24V vehicles – both petrol and diesel – with engines up to 7.0L.

This level of performance makes it suitable for passenger vehicles, small trucks, agricultural equipment and mid-sized earthmoving machines. Additionally, the IS2000’s integrated, ergonomic handle allows for easy portability, making it an ideal alternative to cumbersome lead-acid jump starters that are normally moved around on a trolley, says Projecta.

Common to both units are premium spark-free clamps, ‘no solder’, high current connections for added longevity and performance, intuitive LCD display with real time updates, in-built LED work

The display will also alert the user of an incorrect connection and advise when they’re ready to use, which Projecta says makes these jump starters not only the safest on the market, but one of the easiest to use.

Other Projecta Intell-Start models in the existing line-up include the IS920, IS1220 and IS1500.

Projecta will further expand its Intelli-Start Jump Starter range in the months ahead with the launch of several industrial grade models that are engineered to suit heavy commercial vehicles and large mining, construction and agricultural equipment.

All Intelli-Start models are Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliant and Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) certified.

The latest additions to the Intelli-Start range are available from leading automotive, camping, trade caravanning and four-wheel driving outlets nationwide.
