Frequently Asked Questions

Can the C36 actually start my motorcycle using a power bank?

Yes — in Input Mode, the C36 accepts power from any PD-compatible power bank via its USB-C port and uses it to recharge your motorcycle battery. It's not a conventional jump starter (it doesn't deliver a high instantaneous current spike directly to the starter motor), but it charges the battery to sufficient voltage to start the engine normally. This process takes 10–30 minutes depending on how deeply discharged the battery is, making it a practical emergency solution when you have a PD power bank but no jump leads or conventional charger. The C36 displays real-time battery voltage so you can monitor progress.

What is the difference between the CB10 and CB20?

Both are smart power distribution hubs with three managed output circuits and the same six-layer protection system. The CB20 delivers up to 480W total output and is designed for bikes with a larger accessory load — multiple auxiliary lights, heated gear, GPS, and phone charging simultaneously. The CB10 delivers up to 360W and suits builds with a moderate accessory load. Both include intelligent battery voltage monitoring that cuts power to accessories before the battery drops to a level that prevents engine starting. Choose the CB20 if you run four or more significant power-drawing accessories; the CB10 handles most standard ADV builds.

Does the C20Pro work with lithium (LiFePO4) batteries?

Yes — the C20Pro is designed for both 12V lead-acid (including maintenance-free and AGM) and 12V lithium iron phosphate batteries, with automatic chemistry detection. It does not require manual mode switching between battery types. The optimised capacity range is 4–35Ah, which covers virtually all motorcycle batteries. Note that the C20Pro is not suitable for lithium cobalt or NMC lithium batteries found in some performance bikes — only LiFePO4 chemistry is supported.

Can I leave the C40T or C60 connected permanently for trickle maintenance?

Yes — both the C40T and C60 are float-and-maintain chargers, meaning they automatically switch to a low-current maintenance mode once the battery is fully charged and hold it at optimal voltage indefinitely without overcharging. This makes them suitable for permanent connection during winter storage or extended periods of non-use. The C60's desulphation stage periodically applies a conditioning pulse to prevent sulphate crystal formation in lead-acid batteries during long storage — a meaningful benefit for bikes stored over winter.

Do I need the CSAE-19 cable, or can I use any SAE connector?

LOBOO power products use the standard SAE connector format, which is compatible with most aftermarket SAE cables and charger leads. The CSAE-19 is LOBOO's own cable, recommended for system integration because it uses 18AWG pure copper core (higher current capacity than many budget cables), includes a built-in fuse for overload protection, and has IPX5 waterproof connector covers that protect the battery lead when not connected. If you already have a quality SAE cable from another brand, it will connect to LOBOO chargers without issue — the CSAE-19 is the preferred option for permanent installation on the bike.

How does the CB20/CB10 protect my battery from being drained by accessories?

The CB20/CB10 continuously monitors your battery voltage. When it detects that voltage has dropped to the low-voltage protection threshold — below the level needed for a reliable engine start — it automatically cuts power to all three accessory circuits. This prevents auxiliary lights, heated grips, or a phone charger left on overnight from draining the battery to a point where you can't start the bike. When you start the engine and the charging system restores voltage above the threshold, the outputs reactivate automatically.

Can I control my LOBOO auxiliary lights with the BMW factory scroll wheel?

Yes — the LC081 CAN-Bus controller is a separate accessory that integrates LOBOO auxiliary lights with BMW's original scroll wheel (Wonder Wheel) on GS models, allowing brightness adjustment and strobe activation through the factory switch without an additional handlebar controller. The LC081 is not a power supply product but is listed alongside the power range as it is part of the electrical integration system for BMW riders running the L11 light system.
