Zivan K2 Charger For Sale



     Since my NG5 charger has been working for a couple of 
months now with no problems, it's time to put my old K2 charger 
up for grabs. There's no problem with it, the output is just a little 
too low for a double stack of 8V batteries.
     It's a 144V 15 amp model, 220VAC input. Charge profile is 
constant current/constant voltage/constant current for 3 hrs/shutoff. 
Max initial current is 15 amps, max current final phase 5 amps. It 
is temperature compensated with a remote probe. Initial constant 
current, final constant current, and gassing voltage are adjustable 
via pots inside the charger, accessible via a slot in the side of the 
charger with a small screwdriver. The charger is currently adjusted 
for a 120V pack. The settings can easily be adjusted with a small 
ammeter installed on the output and a digital thermometer to read 
battery temp, or with an E-Meter that has the optional temp 
sensor. Weight is around 5 lbs, physical size approximately 6" X 
6" X 12" long.  I still have all the paperwork and instructions that 
came with the charger.There is some light rust on the fan intake 
grille.
     Brand new 4 years ago it was $800, asking $400. Only fair way 
way I can think of to decide who gets it is first definite "yes" by 
time stamp on e-mail.
