APlusLift WLV-828 — Wheel Balancer with LED Display
A balancer that's slow, loud, or vague turns tire work into rework — the wheel comes back, the customer waits, and the tech re-runs it. The APlusLift WLV-828 is built against that: an 8-second cycle, ±1 gram of balancing accuracy, six LED readouts, and the mode set that covers real work (Normal, Static, ALU 1–3, and ALU-S for the stick-on-weight jobs).
It handles rims from 10 to 24 inches (1.5–20 wide), wheels to 143 pounds and 39 inches in diameter, calibrates itself with intelligent self-calibration, self-diagnoses faults, and runs on 110 volts with the plug included — the plug-in partner to any of the APlusLift changers.
Who the APlusLift WLV-828 Is Built For
- Tire shops pairing a changer with a balancer — the WLV-828 is the APlusLift pairing for the TSA-24/DHM-24/THA-28 line, with the modes and accuracy to keep up with any of them.
- Shops doing stick-on weight work — ALU 1–3 and ALU-S modes cover the alloy-wheel weight placements that basic balancers fake.
- Volume-driven bays — 8-second cycles and ±1g accuracy mean the balancer isn't the line's bottleneck and the road-force complaints don't come back.
- Shops that hate calibrating — intelligent self-calibration and fault self-diagnosis keep the machine honest without a ritual.
- Plug-in buyers — 110 volts, plug included, under 70 dB: the balancer that installs where the work is.
What the APlusLift WLV-828 Is NOT Built For
This is not a truck-wheel balancer — 143 pounds of max wheel weight caps it at passenger and light-truck wheels, and 39 inches of tire diameter is the ceiling. It's not a heavy-duty or bus-class machine, and shops needing wheel-weight capacities beyond 143 lbs should call us for the bigger equipment.
Important sizing note: check your wheel weights against the 143 lb maximum, rim sizes against the 10"–24" range, and plan a 110V outlet before purchase. Questions on fit? Call (817) 865-3707 before ordering — we confirm compatibility, not guesses.
What Makes the APlusLift WLV-828 Different
8 seconds, ±1 gram
The two numbers that define a balancer: cycle speed and accuracy — the WLV-828 delivers both, with six LED readouts for unambiguous results.
- 8-second cycle
- ±1 g accuracy
- 6-LED display
The modes real work needs
Normal, Static, ALU 1–3, and ALU-S — including the alloy-wheel stick-on-weight placements that separate real balancers from toys.
Self-calibrating, self-diagnosing
Intelligent self-calibration and fault self-diagnosis — the machine keeps itself honest instead of waiting for a service call.
Best For
- Pairing with APlusLift changers
- ALU / stick-on weight work
- Volume bays (8s cycles)
- 110V plug-in
Not Ideal For
- Truck wheels over 143 lbs
- Heavy-duty / bus class
- Shops wanting bigger-wheel capacity
WLV-828 — the numbers that matter in a shop balancer
| Spec | WLV-828 | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Cycle time | 8 seconds | Queue discipline at the balancer |
| Accuracy | ±1 gram | The comeback killer |
| Rim range | 10"–24" | Passenger + light truck coverage |
| Modes | 4 mode families | ALU-S covers stick-on weights |
| Self-calibration | Intelligent | Stays honest without rituals |
Pair it with any APlusLift changer — the changer decides the tire work; the balancer decides the comebacks.
