“Intelligent” Design Takes Guesswork Out Of Battery Charging
NewerTech Intelligent Battery Charging/Conditioning Stations are ideal for users who have one or more batteries and want to keep their batteries in optimal charged condition. The two bay design can accommodate two batteries and when the first battery is done charging, the unit “intelligently” begins charging the second battery. In addition to charging batteries quickly and correctly, the deep conditioning feature can bring back additional life to a battery that’s started to show its age.

NewerTech Intelligent Battery Charging/Conditioning Station Features:

• 2 Bays: 1 bay charges, 1 bay charges & conditions
• 2 Year Warranty
• Power Input/Output: 120~240V 50/60Hz 1.5A / 24V 2.3A, regulated

“With the ability to both charge and deep condition batteries at the same time, the NewerTech Intelligent Battery Charging/Conditioning Station saves time as well as restoring new life to older batteries,” said Larry O’Connor, CEO, Other World Computing. “Now Mac notebook users can use their batteries longer and get better performance from them for a double win.”

Compliments Complete Line Of High Capacity Batteries
In addition to its line of battery chargers/conditioners, NewerTech also offers a complete line of NuPower high capacity replacement batteries for MacBook Pro, MacBook, Powerbook G4/G3, and iBook G4/G3 notebooks with up to 68% more capacity than original Apple batteries.
