Third-generation success story: the PowerMate3! The current PowerMate generation features a multitude of innovations and optimizations. Despite a clear reduction in weight, it offers considerable gains in terms of both power amplifier output and features, as well as being more compact than ever before. The PowerMate 1600-3 is supplied with a very robust plastic lid with an integrated handle, a highly innovative solution that offers optimal protection for the device as well as greater carrying comfort.
