Mac Tools introduces the Memory Saver

Mac Tools has introduced the Memory Saver – MS4000. When the starter battery has to be disconnected and the power is shut down, the drivability codes and settings are lost. By plugging the direct-wired OBDII Connector into the vehicles OBDII port under the dash, all drivability codes and settings are protected. Codes and settings include anti-theft radios, clocks, keyless entry systems, alarms, cellular phone settings, and other memory related functions. This tool saves time and promotes customer service excellence, its maker said.

Features and benefits of the Mac Tools Memory Saver include the following:

12 volt, 4.5 amp hour sealed lead acid battery included inside unit
LED indicates connection to circuit
Protected by a 4 amp circuit breaker
Vehicles manufactured from the year 2000 and later require a minimum of 10.5 volts DC to back up important memory and programming
Includes 120V AC “Smart” Charger that allows the unit to function while charging, extending the on-time indefinitely
When the Amber LED light comes on, the internal battery is at 11.5 volts and will need to be charged soon.
