Sulfation and How to Prevent it
It is no secret that sulfation is the #1 killer of lead acid based batteries and that desulfators using Pulse Technology make an IMPACT. PulseTech, a company that produces desulfators, recently said, “After 20+ years, there is no doubt that our products will eliminate your battery problems and will make your batteries perform better.” However, there are still some much respected battery professionals that would argue differently.

Recover Batteries Previously Thought Dead
In July, we heralded the SC-12 Recovery Charger as an indispensable component to a successful Battery Management Program (BMP). For August’s Pulse Talk segment we are introducing its baby brother, the new SC-2 Recovery Charger.
The SC-2 Recovery Charger is the perfect complement for smaller fleets and maintenance bays and pays for itself with the recovery of approximately 9 batteries! The PulseTech line of chargers desulfates batteries so they can accept, store and release maximum power. SC-2 is completely safe with no possibility of overcharging or overheating.

PulseTech There is No Comparison
PulseTech’s SC-12 Recovery Charger is an essential component to creating a highly successful Battery Management Program (BMP). Not only does it allow users to reduce hazardous waste generation by desulfating and recovering ‘dead’ batteries, the SC-12 recovery charger will achieve immediate cost savings. Dramatically reduce your new battery budget by extending the life of existing batteries, efficiently restore & recover old batteries and decrease battery related maintenance and installation costs. There is no other charger on the planet that can compare with how the SC-12 desulfates batteries so they can accept, store and release maximum power.

[caption id="attachment_40" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="Smart Genius Chargers"][/caption]Customers frequently ask, "Why do I need a charger?" Rather than replying sarcastically, "Why do we need to eat healthy and exercise?" I choose to provide a little education that will hopefully help save our customers money and frustration in the future.
Lead acid batteries will self discharge when left sitting unused. Discharged batteries rapidly undergo a process called sulfation. You see, when batteries are discharged the active lead material bonds with the sulfate and electrolyte forming sulfate crystals. These sulfate crystals harden and block the effective area of the battery and reduce its capacity. A battery with no capacity is useless; it can't provide the power required for its designated function. A smart battery charger, such as the Noco Genius brand of chargers, will help prevent sulfation from occurring by keeping your battery in a constant state of charge. They will never
