Constant working on a vehicle and the need to have the Ignition off or on a number of times can cause data loss of the vehicle's electronics and possible damage of the ECU.  Also, some vehicles have current draw even when in the off position and this can mean a flat battery or even worse whilst in for repair.

It's also essential to maintain constant voltages during diagnostic work, software updates, and module reprogramming. Especially when reprogramming work is in progress, the need for battery support is essential otherwise the battery alone is supplying the vehicle’s electronic systems alone.

Testing High Power Circuits

On a stationary vehicle, the GYSFLASH supplies up to 50A to test high-energy consumers: engine fan, window regulator, electronic suspension, etc... By supplying a steady voltage:- 12V to 14.8V

 

A range of accessories is available for the GYSFLASH PRO range, including a trolley, wall support unit, and heavy-duty case.

 

The  GYSFLASH 121.12 CNT FV has a really good instruction book with it which you will need as it's easy to forget what it does and what each function does. I've used it on my Alpina roadster to try and bring my battery back from the dead after my car had been in storage for the winter. It cost me £140 plus vat for a new battery last time it did this.  I simply connected the unit to the battery, pressed start and went to bed. I was pleasantly surprised in the morning as the battery was in fact rescued and now showing a full charge.  I can thoroughly recommend for professional and home use.
