As a lot of discussions regarding battery charging,and battery cure are at this forum.
I would like to add some information.
Lead acid battery consist of negtive and positive plates.
sulphuric acid with specific gravity 1.250 is second element.
We can prepare liquid for battery with sterlized water and pure acid.
Ratio should be 1:3,for example if acid is 1 litre,water should be 3 litre.Specific gravity can be checked with hydrometer.When we discharge battery acid stuck on battery plates.
And gravity will become low 1.150.
Now charging is essential,during charge we examine with hydro meter that gravity is giong up gradually till 1.250.
In every cycle charge and discharge,some acid,s crystal stuck on battery plates.
Now battery,s internal resistance become high due to acid,s crystals.
Technically battery has been sulphated.
During charge battery will produce heat.
Back up time will become low.
Here we need a de-sulphater .
De-sulphater almost a pulse charger.
Which dissolve crystals into water,battery condition will better.
Another thing for battery cure instead of de-sulphater is EDTA.
EDTA is in form of powder.
It can dissolve acid,s crystal into water.
 

Hi,
That is nice information. Do you have any reference for the same?. If yes please quote it here.
