New Acumen Acucom Intercom With On-Bike Charger
24 August 2007
Acumen has developed a Bluetooth intercom package using the acclaimed Interphone module complete with a specifically designed on-bike charger that enables users to top-up the unit's battery anytime, any place anywhere. "When most people go touring on a motorcycle, they are limited in carrying capacity - so everything they can leave behind is a bonus. One of the things we don't want to carry with us is a mains charger - so we engineered a bespoke on-bike charger for the Interphone that plugs directly into the bike's battery," comments Acumen's Dave Martin.

Summer Deals On Innovative Accessories From Acumen
13 June 2007
Acumen electronics has announced two very special deals to encourage motorcyclists to try some of the company’s more innovative products. The Acumen Platinum Duo looks like a regular smart charger, yet it is capable of monitoring and charging two batteries simultaneously. Housed in a splash proof case manufactured from attractive and robust extruded aluminium, this microprocessor-based unit automatically tests, charges, maintains and recovers batteries. Although it only requires a single power socket for operation, inside are dual independent charging circuits that enable the Platinum Duo to charge and maintain two batteries of different capacities, in separate machines or vehicles, at the same time. Simple to operate and compact, the Platinum Duo is supplied with all necessary leads and a wall mounting bracket. It normally sells for £74.99 but Acumen has reduced the price by 20% to £59.99 for a limited time only.

Hence the DGV is particularly useful for touring or commuting.

Acumen, the UK's leading manufacturer of motorcycle electronics, has developed its unique CAT6 immobilser for dirt bikes further, to create a secure solution for dirt bikes with electric start but no ignition key.
