The OPTIMA D400+ is a digital 12V battery maintainer and charger that safely charges and preserves AGM, lithium, flooded and powersport batteries with intelligent modes and clear status feedback.
Keep vehicle and marine batteries ready without constant supervision. The D400+ combines selectable charging profiles, a bright LCD, and a four-color LED status bar so you can charge, condition, and auto-maintain batteries from cars, boats, motorcycles, and powersport machines. Built-in protections and spark-free connections simplify setup and reduce risk while the energy-saver mode preserves stored batteries over time.
The charger uses a digital battery type selector that tailors charge voltage and algorithm to the chemistry you choose. This reduces stress on cells and helps maintain capacity for longer compared with one-size-fits-all chargers. Switch easily between OPTIMA AGM, OPTIMA Li, Auto/Marine, and Power Sport lead-acid profiles.
Safety is multi-layered: the charger includes reverse polarity detection, over-temperature protection, and spark-free connection technology to prevent common hazards during hookup. These systems work automatically so you don’t need to micromanage the process. An illuminated LCD also helps you verify state-of-charge and charging current before leaving the unit unattended.
The built-in energy saver Auto Maintain mode supplies small, controlled charges to keep batteries at an optimal state without overcharging. This makes it suitable for vehicles stored seasonally or equipment that sits idle for weeks or months. The charger’s conditioning cycle also helps recover and balance batteries showing mild self-discharge or sulfation.
The D400+ delivers up to 4 amps peak charging current, which provides a balance between safe, controlled replenishment and reasonable recharge time for most 12V batteries. It’s designed to revive and maintain rather than deliver high-rate cranking recovery; for large, deeply discharged batteries, results depend on battery condition and capacity.
Who is this for? The OPTIMA D400+ is ideal for drivers, boaters, powersport riders, and fleet or workshop owners who want a single charger/maintainer capable of handling multiple 12V chemistries. If you store vehicles seasonally, maintain batteries on trailers or backup equipment, or simply prefer a smart, safer way to keep batteries topped off, the D400+ offers flexible charging profiles, clear feedback, and protective features that reduce maintenance time and extend battery usefulness.
Q: Can I use the D400+ with Lithium batteries?
A: Yes. The D400+ has a digital OPTIMA Li profile specifically for compatible 12V lithium batteries.
Q: Is it safe to leave the charger connected long-term?
A: Yes. Auto Maintain energy-saver mode safely keeps batteries topped off during long storage periods.
