Hold a 12 V battery at a steady voltage while you flash, code and calibrate, so a long session never drops a module. They plug into a standard 120 V outlet.
Programming and coding run with the ignition on, often for half an hour or more. If the battery sags mid-flash, the update can stop halfway and leave a control unit dead. A battery support unit holds the voltage you set, whatever the car draws.
Runs on the outlet you already have
Flexible Voltage accepts anything from 85 to 265 V. Plug into a standard 120 V shop outlet for up to 100 A, or into 240 V for the full 120 A. No transformer, no rewiring.
Connected by USB
Load the charging profiles your brand calls for, export every session's history to a spreadsheet, add a receipt printer, and install firmware updates from a USB stick.
Pick by how you work
Three units, three kinds of bay
Programming cartOur pick
GYSFLASH 125.12 CNT FV
The strongest unit on a 120 V outlet. At 13 cm (5.1 in) tall it slides under the car, so it follows the technician from bay to bay on a trolley.
The same 120 A power in an upright case that mounts on the wall or on the lift, with a cable reel on the front. One per bay, always plugged in, never on the floor.
Output from the GYS datasheets, which rate the 120 V figures at 110 V; on a 120 V outlet you get at least as much. The GYSFLASH 100.12 HF runs on 220–240 V only and is left out of this page.
On 120 V, give it its own 20 A circuit
At full output the 125.12 and 123.12 draw up to 1,500 W from a 120 V outlet, about 12.5 A. That is comfortable on a dedicated 20 A circuit and tight on a 15 A outlet shared with a lift or a compressor. On 240 V they draw up to 2,000 W and deliver the full 120 A.

Will it run on a standard 120 V outlet?
Yes. Every unit on this page is Flexible Voltage and accepts 85 to 265 V. On 120 V the 125.12 and 123.12 hold 100 A continuously and the 51.12 holds 40 A. Plug into 240 V when you want the full rated output.
What is the difference between a battery support unit and a charger?
A charger follows a charge curve and tapers off as the battery fills. A battery support unit holds a fixed voltage and supplies whatever current the vehicle draws, up to its rating, so the electronics see a healthy battery for the whole session. GYSFLASH units do both: Charge, Diagnostic (support), Showroom and Tester modes.
How much current do I need?
A modern vehicle with the ignition on, fans running and modules awake can draw well over 50 A during programming. A 100 A-class unit (125.12 or 123.12) keeps headroom for long sessions on large vehicles. The 51.12 covers lighter loads, motorcycles, showroom cars and second bays.
Does it handle lithium batteries?
Yes. They charge and support 12 V lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries with a dedicated 9-step curve, and lead batteries (AGM, EFB, calcium, gel and flooded) with an 8-step curve. They recover deeply discharged batteries from 2 V.
Can the unit be updated?
Yes. GYS publishes firmware for the connected GYSFLASH range; you download it for your serial number and install it from a USB stick. See Firmware & software updates.
Does my carmaker require a specific unit?
Some carmakers publish approved equipment for programming; others publish a minimum specification. Tell us your brand and we'll confirm which GYSFLASH matches its requirement before you order.
Equipping several bays?
We quote multi-unit orders with trolleys and wall mounts, and confirm lead times before you order. Purchase orders and tax-exempt accounts are welcome.
