CAN YOU FIX A DEAD CAR BATTERY OVERNIGHT? - How to rebuild a car battery at HOME DIY Dead Battery.
STUFF YOU NEED TO BUY:
Battery Restore In A Bottle: amzn.to/4aKT29G
Battery Charger: amzn.to/4bC6EoM
Battery Tester: amzn.to/3VfjW4W
Can you fix a dead car battery? Yes, you can, well sorta! In this video HOW TO REBUILD A CAR BATTERY for UNDER $5 BUCKS we see how some baking soda and Epson salts can fix a Dead Car Battery Fix and Revival of a Dead Battery.
This didn't work the first time for me when I tried to rebuild a car battery in my 1967 Porsche 912/911, it took a few tries before I found that it takes about 8 to 10 ounces of epson salts per liter of distilled water to get the right mix.
But fixing a dead car battery isn't hard to do, but the time it takes to recharge or rebuild a car battery it might be better just to buy a new battery. This process takes several days, and if you need your car sooner, then by all means just buy a new battery and maybe keep your core (old) battery as a back up and follow these steps to rebuild a car battery.

Most batteries here in Australia are sealed batteries, and always dry out, but if you can pull the eye glass out and add water,but it looks like it works, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones

Yeah, you did a battery fix video and said you would follow up with a video in a few weeks to see how it was holding up but you never made the follow-up video, at least I have searched your videos and couldn't find it. Thanks a lot for that.

you don't tap off the battery water over at the base of the plastic opening. when you look inside the battery fill hole you will see the plastic inside extend close to the battery cell plates. the water line should be at the base of the plastic to allow water expansion. Overfilling water past the base will cause water to spill on the battery top. The battery was weak due to lack of water. filling with distilled water and then charging overnight usually will revive the battery unless it is a very old battery or has a completely dead cell (each cell is 2.1VDC x 6 cell = 12.6 VDC).

Never over fill a battery, and if all you need to do it top off a fairly good battery then some distilled water can do the trick. But if you have a battery that is 4-5 years old and clearly need more than a top off, the stuff in the bottle seems be working. Thanks for watching and dropping a comment, I sure do appreciate it!

Wet area under the caps can short out the cells and thus discharge the battery. The area under the caps should be clean and dry.

Your're correct, I did clean up those caps off camera. Glad you reminded me to stat that for others to know. Thanks sir!!!

Uhhhh Guy, one must take the caps Loose in order to vent the build up of gas vapors during the charge. Failing to loosen the caps causes heat build up internally causing case swelling.

You said you were going to make a follow-up video on this battery fix but just like the first battery fix follow-up video you said you were going to do, well you didn't do a follow-up video on this one either. Probably because your battery fix didn't work. Hey thanks a pantload for the tips.

I too was looking for a follow up on that one. I just started testing a few things and the only things that seemed to work was to use a welder in the 100 amp range to get some balance to the cells. I don't like these "magic fluid" solution and no long term follow up. There's not even a simple specific gravity test before and after.

This is silly and dangerous, IMO. Don't do this. Don't buy that stuff. Just do the right thing and get a new battery.

What is so silly and dangerous? The only silly thing is trying to shake a 50+ pound battery.

Not sure I see the silly and dangerous part but so far the stuff in the bottle is working on the battery. Yes I can afford to just buy a battery, but I know there are millions of people in the world right now that don't have the money... so if I can help them save some coin going to do my best. Thanks for watching and dropping a comment, I appreciate it!
