Ring Smartcharge 6 Battery Charger & Maintainer
The Ring Smartcharge 6 is an advanced 6A intelligent battery charger and maintainer designed to charge, protect and maintain 6V and 12V vehicle batteries.
Part of Ring Automotive's latest 900 Series, it features an efficient 9-stage charging process, lithium-ion battery compatibility and automatic long-term maintenance.
Ideal for classic and modern Porsche vehicles, particularly those used occasionally or stored over winter, the Smartcharge 6 helps keep batteries charged and ready for use.
Compatible battery types:
- Lithium-ion
- Lead-acid AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat)
- EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery)
- Gel Calcium
Also suitable for compatible Stop-Start vehicle batteries.
Check the vehicle manufacturer's charging instructions and battery specifications before connecting, especially for lithium batteries.
What Does It Do?
The Smartcharge 6 automatically monitors battery condition and adjusts the charging process to deliver the appropriate charge.
Its intelligent 9-stage charging system helps charge the battery efficiently before switching to maintenance mode once fully charged.
This allows the charger to remain connected for long-term battery maintenance, helping prevent discharge without overcharging.
Why Should You Consider One?
Porsche vehicles that are driven infrequently can gradually lose battery charge, particularly during colder months.
The Smartcharge 6 provides several benefits:
- Helps prevent flat batteries during vehicle storage
- Maintains battery charge between journeys
- Supports battery care throughout the year
- Reduces the inconvenience of a discharged battery
- Suitable for classic 6V and modern 12V systems
- Automatically maintains the battery once fully charged
- Allows charging without removing the battery from the vehicle
It is particularly useful for classic Porsche collections, seasonal vehicles and cars that remain parked for extended periods.
Intelligent 9-Stage Charging
The automatic 9-stage charging process monitors and manages battery charging to help maintain battery condition.
Once charging is complete, the unit automatically changes to long-term maintenance mode, preventing unnecessary overcharging.
Cold Weather & Stop-Start Compatibility
The Smartcharge 6 includes a dedicated Cold Weather Mode to help protect batteries during charging in lower temperatures.
It is also compatible with suitable Stop-Start batteries, including AGM and EFB types commonly found in modern vehicles.
Safety & Protection Features
The charger incorporates several protective functions:
- Reverse polarity protection
- Short-circuit protection
- Automatic overcharge protection
- Intelligent battery monitoring
- IP65-rated protection against dust and water jets
The IP65 weather-resistant housing makes it suitable for use in damp conditions, including rain and snow, when operated according to the manufacturer's instructions.
LCD Display & Easy Operation
A large backlit LCD display provides clear information about battery condition and charging progress, even in low-light environments.
Simple one-touch operation makes the charger convenient for everyday use without complicated settings.
Connection Options
The Smartcharge 6 is supplied with:
- Crocodile battery clamps for temporary connection
- O-ring terminals for a more permanent battery connection
- Quick-release connection cable
The O-ring terminals are particularly convenient for Porsche owners who regularly connect a battery maintainer during storage.
A built-in hanging hook allows the charger to be positioned conveniently while in use.
