CTEK named Automechanika Awards finalists
Two CTEK products, the CS ONE and the NJORD GO, have been selected as finalists in the highly coveted Automechanika Innovation Awards, held as part of international automotive trade show Automechanika.
The annual Automechanika Innovation Awards celebrate pioneering innovations in the industry, and the two CTEK products are amongst 35 finalists that have been rated as outstanding by the Automechanika jury, chosen from a record 133 award applications.
“In times of digitalization, energy transition and climate change, innovations are more important than ever,” says Automechanika. “The record number of applications for this year's Innovation Awards shows the innovative strength with which the automotive industry is meeting these challenges.”
Gary Brown, Aftermarket Division and Consumer Product Manager for CTEK said: ”We are so proud to have been listed as finalists in the Automechanika Innovation Awards. It is pleasing recognition of CTEK’s pioneering approach to product development - an approach that is keeping us right at the forefront of vehicle charging technology - and also recognises the significant innovation and dedication that has gone into the development of these two revolutionary chargers, the CS ONE and the NJORD GO.”
CS ONE
The CTEK CS ONE fully automatic battery charger and maintainer has been listed as one of two finalists in the ‘Accessories and Customising’ category of the Automechanika Innovation Awards.
Automechanika describes the CS ONE as an automatic battery charging device for 12 V lead and lithium batteries that utilises patented APTO™ adaptive charging technology, saying: “Not only is this smart charger able to automatically recognise the polarity (plus or minus) of the clamps connected to the device, but also the battery’s chemical system (lead or lithium).”
The CS ONE is without doubt the smartest charger we’ve ever made! It’s the only charger in the world with fully adaptive APTOTM charging technology and it’s the smart choice for drivers looking to keep their battery in optimum health.
Suitable for use on cars, motorcycles, leisure vehicles, vans, and boats, the CS ONE is easy to use; there are no modes to select – just connect and the CS ONE will do the rest. It’s the ultimate battery charger, conditioner and maintainer, that can be left attached to the battery indefinitely to ensure your vehicle is always ready to go when you are.
NJORD GO
CTEK’s NJORD GO all-in-one portable electric vehicle (EV) charger has been selected as one of four finalists in the ‘Electromobility’ category of the Automechanika Innovation Awards.
“The all-in-one NJORD GO EV charger is cost effective, lightweight and suitable for charging e-vehicles at home, at work or on holiday,” says Automechanika. “It has a Type 2 plug with a charging capacity of 11 kW and is fully compatible with 3 phase CEE sockets.”
NJORD GO has a wide range of charging functions that can be simply operated from an iOS or Android smartphone, using the free to download CTEK APP, through which users can, for example, control output current, start, pause, stop and schedule charging. The app will also record, store and display the entire EV charging history.
The award winners will be announced at Automechanika in Frankfurt on 13 September.
