the marketing strategy they used before this almost killed the product.
they ae now back with a new marketing approach but i think the price is
still too low. not much margin for the dealers and that was what failed
it.

That's is what i meant. It prevents damage to the battery, but if already
damged no point in fixing it in until you have change to a new battery.

drex is trying to say it prevents sulphate from forming on the plate. This
sulphate is the reason 80% lead acid batt stop giving out current.
(premature death)

If it is physically damage(short circuit, broken etc) then this thing wont
help.

I have used the desuphator on 2 batteries over the past 2 years. Both batteries died within 1 year and a half. It may be true that it prevent desuphation, because I did not see any white powder. However, the best I can say is that it does not prolong battery life.
I will not use this device anymore and I hope my battery life returns to its normal of 2 years life.

It's 2010 already and there are various products that came out. One that I found and bought is the CTEK battery charger. This charger does not just connect onto your car battery like a voltage stabilizer, but functions as a battery desulfator and charger when your car is parked at home. The charger, of course, is connected your household plug point.

Apparently doubles the life of your battery. Have been charging my bettery every 3months to ensure it's in tip top condition wink.gif

Visit www.ctek.com

Sulfarid could drain battery power fast. my fren install Sulfarid on new battery, 4 days not starting engine the battery flat. recharge the battery at tire shop, then again leave the car without starting the engine for another 4 days, battery flat again. went to recharge the battery the second time, then again leave the car without starting the engine for 7 days WITHOUT Sulfarid, tada... car still can start after the 7 days.
