Lazer Helmets have updated their SHARP 4- star rated‘ Bayamo All Star’ full face and gone“ Glam Rock” for a striking new look. Made in two shell sizes for men and women( the lighter version weighs approximately 1,500g) the visor is Pinlock ready, it has a flexible chin curtain and an internal sun visor. The speaker-ready lining is made from
- high frequency, fully electronic power conversion( able to receive global 100 – 240Vac power) and a dual program feature. Program 1 gave direct charging to a 12V battery via the battery clips or permanent battery leads with M6( 1 / 4”) rings; program 2 allowed charging to be activated through the CAN bus controlled 12V power port on BMW motorcycles. The OptiMate 4 dual program was the first to solve the problem of the BMW rider periodically having to turn on the key to re-activate their battery maintainer to prevent their battery running down; OptiMate 4’ s keyless program communicated seamlessly with the BMW CAN bus control and guaranteed 24-7 maintenance without the need of supervision. The keyless entry and additional features, such as the ability to save a battery from as low as 0.5V and preand post-charging testing( allowing the user to monitor charge progress), quickly made OptiMate 4 dual
removable, washable, antimicrobial material with a quadruple density inner shell and micrometric buckle.
