Battery Additive

Just thought I'd pass on a positive experience I've had with a product called Battery Equalizer. My deep cycle was showing signs of deterioration (sulfation), as my digital volt-meter was indicating I was no longer getting it charged to the levels achived when it was new. As the battery was only 2.5 years old, I decided to try Battery Equalizer. Once you pour the liquid into each cell, it takes about 5 or 6 charging cycles before the results are truly noticeable. When the battery was new, the fully charged reading was between 12.8 and 12.95 volts. Now with the product, I consistently get a fully charged reading of 13 or more. Apparently Battery Equalizer inhibits the sulfation of the plates, and makes the battery more efficient. All I know is that it has saved me from buying another battery, and I see no reason to beleive overall life will be longer than previous batteries. It also works on the cranking battery. I highly recommend this product, available throughout Ottawa, including at Canadian Tire.

How much is this stuff . I have a couple of batteries that are 2 years old that aren't giving me any trouble yet but if this stuff is that good I may try it anyways.

Marty - stop in at Total Battery by the bus station in Pembroke. I bought that stuff on my javelin batteries and it was awesome. I also put it in the new triton for peace of mind.

My two main cranking batteries are both sealed batteries, is the a way to get this stuff into a sealed battery?

Thanks stephen, thats the same stuff I bought last winter and was asking about in the recent battery thread. Im thinking about getting another bottle for my truck and car.
The bottle costs about $29.00 and does 3 deep cycle batteries. You only put it in every 5 years .

I too am using this stuff. I have only charged the battery 3 times since adding it. We will see if the battery performs better after a couple more charges.
