During the development of the Ultimate Rectifier, the product has gone through a lot of prototype iterations. Through this process, we developed a control strategy for keeping the output voltage in control that has not been seen previously in any other voltage regulator/rectifiers. The Ultimate Rectifier has been patented to ensure that we are the first with this approach. For you, someone who takes immense pride in his motorcycle, this means that the Ultimate Rectifier is something unique. The patent has been filed, and therefore the patent status is ‘patent pending’.
