lead acid battery reconditioning

[redriderno22]

Recently I started some small experiments with the batteries in my golf cart.

the batts were only good to go check the mail at the end of my driveway, about a 1200 foot round trip.

before i tried anything on the batts in the cart i found some old car batts to do my experiments.

yes ive tried the pulse charging, over charging, new acid......ect, ect..

and yes i understand the chemical process inside the batts.

and have a battery analyzer to see any improvements in capacity.

long story short, after many ,many trials, destroyed batts, and months of test after test ive come up with an additive that will bring a junk batt back to life!
NO EDTA, NO lye, NO Epsom salts. as these do work to DE sulfate a batt, it destroys them in the long run.

now my cart lasts for nearly 4 hours at top speed! and keeps getting better!

I just wanted to post this to see if anyone else has put any thought into recycling batteries?
and if i need to patent my work?

thanks to all

There is a lot on desulfating l(desulphating) lead acid batteries out there. Find out first.
Also, a lot of work on building lead acid batteries that do not deteriorate.

over the past few months Ive read just about everything i can get my hands on about batteries

now my head hurts

its intresting that most battery manufacturers do not use any additives?

some do but you pay more for the battery, way more

a method of desulfating batteries from years ago was to ad cadmium sulfate .

but i would rather not get cancer any sooner!

and yes i would like to share what Ive found but Ive put so much time into it, i hope all of you understand

once i figure out how to get the test results in a format that i can upload ill show my results

thank you all for any input
