Advanced Yamaha YEC-40 battery charger

A year after the introduction of its first motorcycle and scooter Battery Charger, Yamaha now brings you the new, advanced YEC-40 Battery Charger.

The original Yamaha YEC-8 battery charger launched at the end of 2009 was a runaway success, providing motorcycle and scooter owners the peace of mind knowing that whenever they thumbed the starter button, their vehicle would start.

Once again, working in partnership with renowned automotive electronics experts CTEK, Yamaha have developed the new YEC-40 which takes battery charging to a whole new level, providing complete, safe and effective battery care.

The new Yamaha YEC-40 belongs to a new generation of battery chargers and once again comes at a perfect time for Yamaha owners as the winter is now upon us, but this time the cutting-edge charging technology is available for a much wider range of battery applications including motorcycle, scooter, ATV and Marine products.
