Eine der Freuden des Motorradfahrens besteht einfach darin, Helm und Handschuhe anzuziehen, sich auf das Motorrad zu schwingen und loszufahren. Damit das möglich ist, muss Ihr Motorrad in einwandfreiem Zustand sein – und dazu gehört auch die 12-V-Batterie, die normalerweise unter dem Sitz verborgen ist. 

Eine einwandfrei funktionierende Batterie ist unverzichtbar, da ihre Hauptaufgabe darin besteht, den Anlasser mit Strom zu versorgen, damit dieser die Kurbelwelle dreht und den Motor zum Laufen bringt.

Sobald der Motor läuft, versorgt die Batterie auch wichtige Systeme mit Strom, darunter: die Scheinwerfer, Blinker und Bremslichter; die Zündung und alle Motorsteuergeräte; die Armaturenbrettanzeigen einschließlich der Warnleuchten; die Hupe; sowie alle elektrischen Zusatzgeräte wie beispielsweise ein GPS.

Um all das zu leisten – und insbesondere um genügend Leistung zum Durchdrehen des Motors zu haben – muss die 12-V-Batterie über eine ausreichende Spannung verfügen.

Was ist eine normale Spannung für eine Motorradbatterie?

Eine Batterie in gutem Zustand hat bei voller Ladung etwa 12,7 V. Motorradbatterien können unter dieser Idealspannung liegen, wenn das Fahrzeug nur für kurze Fahrten genutzt wird oder über längere Zeit stillgestanden hat. Im Winter kann der Spannungsabfall sogar noch deutlicher ausfallen.

Wenn die Spannung unter 12 V fällt, sind Probleme vorprogrammiert. Möglicherweise bemerken Sie Schwierigkeiten beim Starten des Motors. Die Scheinwerfer oder das Armaturenbrett erscheinen möglicherweise dunkler als gewöhnlich. Andere elektrische Systeme funktionieren möglicherweise nicht wie vorgesehen.

So halten Sie die Spannung auf einem optimalen Niveau

Der beste Weg, um eine gesunde Spannung von 12,7 V in Ihrer Motorradbatterie aufrechtzuerhalten, ist das regelmäßige Laden und Warten der Batterie. Machen Sie es sich zur Gewohnheit, so oft wie möglich ein Batterieladegerät anzuschließen.

Ein Batterieladegerät wie CTEKs NXT 5 bietet hohe Leistung, Zuverlässigkeit und Benutzerfreundlichkeit. Es unterstützt sowohl herkömmliche Blei-Säure-Batterien als auch die leichteren Lithium-Batterien, die von einigen Motorradfans bevorzugt werden.

Das NXT 5 ist ideal für Motorradbatterien. Es verfügt über patentierte Recond- und Desulfatierungsmodi. Außerdem passt es die Ladestufen je nach Umgebungstemperatur an. Es verfügt zudem über robuste gummierte Kabel, einen automatischen funkenfreien Betrieb und einen Verpolungsschutz.

Sie können das Gerät also einfach anschließen und sich darauf verlassen, dass das NXT 5 den Prozess der Wiederherstellung und Aufrechterhaltung der idealen Spannung Ihrer Motorradbatterie übernimmt. Das bedeutet, dass Ihr Motorrad bereit ist, damit Sie aufsteigen, den Zündschlüssel drehen und losfahren können.

CTEK becomes EV charging partner to the Swedish Ski Association

CTEK has entered into a new agreement with the Swedish Ski Association, providing CC3 EV charging infrastructure at Riksskidstadion in Falun, Sweden’s Alpine National Arena and the Swedish Ski Association’s Åre office. Delivered alongside installation partner Kalema e-Mobility, the charging solutions will support electric passenger cars and support vehicles used by athletes, coaches, staff and the wider organisation. Falun, Sweden – CTEK, a global leader in battery charging and electric vehicle charging, has entered into a new agreement with the Swedish Ski Association to provide EV charging infrastructure at Riksskidstadion in Falun, Sweden’s Alpine National Arena and the Swedish Ski Association’s Åre office. Under the agreement, CTEK is providing charging solutions from its CHARGESTORM CONNECTED 3 (CC3) product family. The project is being delivered alongside installation partner Kalema e-Mobility, which is carrying out the installations at Riksskidstadion, Sweden’s Alpine National Arena and the Swedish Ski Association’s Åre office. The chargers will support electric passenger cars and support vehicles used by athletes, coaches and staff, as well as other electric vehicles operated by the Swedish Ski Association. They will provide reliable and convenient charging when vehicles are at Riksskidstadion, Sweden’s Alpine National Arena or the Swedish Ski Association’s Åre office, supporting the Association’s continued transition towards more sustainable transport. For the Swedish Ski Association, the drive to constantly improve goes beyond athletic performance. The Association believes it is equally important to keep improving the smart, climate-friendly solutions that support its everyday operations. “We are delighted to work with the Swedish Ski Association as its EV charging partner. Elite sport depends not only on what happens on the track or slopes, but also on the people, vehicles and infrastructure working behind the scenes. By providing our CC3 charging technology and working alongside Kalema e-Mobility, we can help support the Association’s everyday operations and its transition towards more electrified transport,” said Johanna Mogren Sundqvist, Sales Manager EVSE at CTEK. Developed in Sweden for professional EV charging, CC3 can be adapted to different organisations, vehicle requirements and parking environments. The EV chargers can provide up to 22 kW per outlet and support connectivity and load balancing. This allows the available electrical capacity to be used efficiently while enabling the charging infrastructure to expand as the Swedish Ski Association’s requirements grow. "For us, this investment is about creating the conditions for a smarter and more sustainable operation. Our athletes, coaches and staff travel extensively throughout the year, and reliable charging infrastructure is becoming an increasingly important part of our everyday operations. CTEK combines proven technology with strong local roots in Dalarna, making them a natural supplier as we continue to develop our organisation and reduce the environmental impact of our transport solutions," said Johan Gräfnings, Swedish Ski Association. The agreement connects CTEK’s home in Falun, Dalarna, with the Swedish Ski Association’s activities at Sweden’s Alpine National Arena and its Åre office in Jämtland. For CTEK, it is an opportunity to support the Swedish Ski Association and its national teams with technology that makes a practical difference behind the scenes. The collaboration will also give CTEK agreed brand visibility across the Swedish Ski Association’s activities.

Why Every Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid Still Depends on a 12V Battery

Charging a hybrid car battery is not only about the high-voltage drive battery. Hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles also use a separate 12V battery to power essential systems and enable the vehicle to start its electronic control sequence. If that battery is flat, the vehicle may not enter its ready-to-drive mode.
