Follow up to this: AGM batteries require the high freq pulse method of
desulfation.



No amount of "pulsing" on the planet is going to change crystalline lead
sulfate back into sulfuric acid and lead to restore a properly sulfated
battery...no matter what the sales hype to sell the overpriced nonsense.
The pulsing chargers are only good to knock off some of the impurity
surface sulfation in the way of the acid-that's-left from touching the
lead. Crystalline lead sulfate is a very stable 'ol salt, even in diluted
acid soaked in gauze.

AGM doesn't change chemistry.....well, except in boat shops.


I am not a chemist. I use what proves to work.

I must complement the battery manufacturers in convincing consumers that
AGM and gelcells are something extra special, allowing the suppliers to
jack up the prices to amazing levels to maximize profits.

They ARE NOT SPECIAL! They are the same old lead acid batteries in a new
container.



That don't leak sulfuric acid if you tip them.

Sometimes the container makes all the difference in the world.


That was my point also. They don't spill when tipped.

Turn a golf cart battery over and see what runs out with the caps on
tight....nothing. The caps have a sink trap in them...take a look!
