That would be great if it works out. I seem to run into a lot of barely dead batteries just from stuff sitting.
Battery additive?

I have a friend that swears by mineral oil, just a few drops, and keep it on a desulfating maintenance charger
I figured it wasn't a terribly expensive experiment. If it gets me one more season out of a single battery it's paid for the entire bottle. I'll be curious to see how the other 2 respond. Then, how they all do next spring.
I got to try that, one of the batteries in my APC UPS is weak and setting off the change batteries warning.
but we are all surrounding him maintaining 6' distance.......
in Florida they don't think people know what 6' is cause they have this notice.....
dunno what worked really. I tried the epson salt trick with a trickle charger on no less than a dozen batteries in the last year. Recovery rate was 2, with a 3rd marginal. For the time and effort I spent on charging, adding this , trickle that, I ended up with 2 batteries that came up to 800cca + of their rated 1200 cca. Keep in mind 2x diesel trucks at 2 batteries per. 2 invertors ( 2 trucks ) and 2 batteries per. 2 crane trailer lifts at 2 batteries per. It all adds up. In short I bought 6 trojan brand batteries this year, reclaimed a couple and the kid scrapped the dozen or so we could not reclaim. If its going to bounce back I think you can tell. If its fooked then its fooked and I would not waste the time to try and bring it back
