C ombining versatility with compact yet robust construction, the new BITE5 battery tester from Megger provides comprehensive facilities for testing lead acid (VLA and VRLA), NiCD and lithium-ion batteries. Featuring an easy-to-use touchscreen interface, this innovative instrument supports both impedance testing and, when used in conjunction with a load bank, discharge testing. Ohmic testing can be performed on individual cells or on entire strings, up to a maximum of 200 V. “Storage batteries are playing an increasingly important role in many sectors, from domestic solar power systems to standby power sources for critical business applications,” said Sandy Woodley, Sales Manager Power Products at Megger. “There is therefore a clear need for a convenient and versatile instrument for testing these batteries. Drawing on our many years of experience in the battery test sector, we’ve developed the BITE5 K nightsbridge – one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of wiring accessories and lighting – marks its Silver Jubilee year with a handy A5-sized, full colour anniversary catalogue. The almost 500-page publication is packed with over 3,000 items including more than 400 new products, with new range developments, impressive innovations and lots of inspiring ideas. Divided into easy-to-reference sections, the catalogue provides full product details along with high quality lifestyle and detailed product images. Latest lighting introductions include SpektroLED, the 40-in-one configurable downlighter that now comes in fixed and tilt versions; and the Torlan range of non-corrosive LED battens with variants ideal for residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural and other demanding environments.
Further recent developments include a collection of recessed and surface- mounted downlights designed for light commercial, hospitality and high-end residential applications. Compatible with Knightsbridge GU10 light sources, the IP20 downlights can all be used with Knightsbridge’s range of fire hoods, and – depending on model – integrate seamlessly with the SmartKnight app for remote scheduling and operation. Outdoors, there’s a wide range of weatherproof wiring accessories featuring robust, easy-to-operate switched sockets and fused spur units or stylish 20AX outdoor switches; and outdoor enclosures. Wall lights and bollards are a great way of transforming patios, yards, and gardens into areas that can be enjoyed in the evenings, and all year round.
Of course, the catalogue lists all the traditional favourites too, across a wide range of categories and applications.
