I just wanted to get everyone's opinion on battery desulfators.
I recently purchased a Battery Life saver . I bought it from someone else who used it on a solar battery. It is a 12 volt model.
I have a deka intimidater agm that was pretty much dead . It would not take a charge beyond 11.5 volts and drained rapidly.
I put the bls on it and charged it up. After a few tries at varying amperage , it has held a charge. I have continued to keep the bls on it for about a month with some removal time to use in on my weak truck battery. The battery will now hold at 12-13 volts unless I leave the desulfator on and the voltage will drop over a 2 week period to 10. I have not load tested it.
My truck battery would not hold a charge beyond a couple weeks because it sits here a lot. It is 4 years old. After desulfating , It seems much stronger and the resting charge is back up to 12.6. Before it was 12.2.
Am I nuts to think that these devices actually work or is it the placebo effect? I see lots of companies selling these devices or chargers with them built in.
Fraud or find?
