Battery pulse desulfater tested [RE-wrenches]

[Jeffery Wolfe, Global Resource Options]

Well, actually Steve, we just took a pair of a different "brand X"
desolaters off a set of batteries that were starting to show serious signs
of sulfation, and put on a "Brand Y". Brand Y is making a very significant
difference in the SG of the electrolyte at all charge conditions.

I was also in the camp of maybe they all are the same, but now I'm in the
camp of I know our Brand Y works, and I cannot say if any others do or not.

We put a Brand Y desulfater on every battery system we sell, except for real
small cabin type systems where the cost of two golf cart batteries or so
doesn't justify the desulfater expense.

Well, I didn't want to disparage one brand, as the theory should apply to
all of them.  This one was a Solar Converters and they indicated it was
experimental, they were still open minded about the results.  Now that said,
all other brands will jump in and say it doesn't apply, theirs is different.
Then here we go again...
