you can check your engine coolant by opening the radiator cap, and put the negative probe in the coolant, and then put the positive probe on the pos terminal of the battery! if your coolant is old the corrosion inhibitors break down and the coolant will pass current. i forget what the cutoff is but if the voltage is above a certain level it means your coolant needs to be flushed. i think it might be like 1.7 volts idk it can be found online. also i might have gotten the polarity wrong but it will just read negative on a dmm.

I have a 12-10H battery (4 of them), I was using for a 48 Volt lawn mower. Long story short, I re-purposing them for a camping lantern and didn't realize, after an hour, one was dropping to 10.4 Volts powering 400 mA of LEDs. I saw this and a few others and added 50-mL of water to each cell. After one overnight charge 2 hours into the discharge, it still measures 12.8 Volts. Wow what a difference. I'll be adding more for this next charge cycle, but not going to over fill like in this video.

To restrict any spitting of fluids which may occur, simply position your lever, then put a rag over, so you’re sort of working blind. This method can also work in engineering, if you’re removing fasteners that may be sprung or clipped in some manner, a little awkward at times, but easier than looking for that clip that has just been projected fifty feet across the workshop. Eye protection too, don’t forget that.

Old 64 goat, I am 67 and I have recovered many batteries. but not all of them. I add distilled water from the grocery store at $0.75 per gallon and a gallon lasts me several years. (Rain water has some dissolved minerals from running down the roof and in the air it picks up CO2 and becomes mild carbolic acid so distilled water is the best! ) The sealed battery he is working on is a valve regulated not a gel cell and many are in use if the battery is not too dry the gel will absorb the water.

There are a few things for battery reconditioning never attempt to do this unless you know what you are doing - the acid can burn you check the voltage first - there may be a dead cell which would waste your time. Check the battery fluid. Try to fully charge the battery. (I learned about these and more on Jons mender guide website )

Use compressed air to clean the inside of the battery, as opening the caps of the cells would let the junk into the cells. Hold the caps down with your thumb so that the rush of the air will not unseat them. A old toothbrush could be used to brush any gunk away from the cell openings before you remove the caps. Clean each cell thoroughly.

Great video. I never knew these batteries were of the lead acid variety and could be recovered. I figured they were some type of gel cell. (OBTW) I noticed the Casio calc watch you are wearing...I have that same identical one and speaking about batteries. I think I bought that watch in the mid 80's, so it's 25 to 30 years old. The band broke years ago and I tossed it in a drawer. The battery is the original (never been replaced) and it is still working after all these years sitting in a drawer. I take it out and check it from time to time to see if it's still going. It's only lost about 4 minutes in all this time. It amazes me every time!

The only thing that worried me was when he said he was going to sell it. It's not going to have a long life, it was obviously thrown away for a good reason. I've done this trick myself and the batteries quickly lost capacity. By the way, I was told that top plate is purposely easy to prise off because if the battery has to vent it'll blow those rubber seals and also blow that plate off rather than blow the battery apart. Overusing epoxy or gorilla glue may negate that safety feature. Not that I'd like to be around if it did blow.

If you will be using the device daily, even a worn battery can last a long time, despite it discharging rapidly. When I was 18, my car sat for a month with a six year old battery and it was completely dead, or so I thought, My neighbor did some sort of procedure like this, and brought it up to full charge. I would use that same battery all through the winter, driving my car for half an hour twice or more each day, to school or work and back home. When I let it sit for several weeks over the summer, it died again. Rather than go through the procedure again and risk getting stuck, I asked for, and got, a new battery for my birthday. But it showed me that even batteries on the verge of death can sometimes be kept alive with frequent recharging cycles.

Comments included this "Iron Out" product and dumping all fluids and replacing with distilled water. Why were you not using new battery acid instead of water? I have no experience with these small batteries but lots with big batt for electric warehouse equipment. We would remove those cells gently wash off the sulfation and clean out the case. As long as the plates were okay and the sulfation was no longer present we would refill with new battery acid, ck the specific gravity of the liquid and recharge like a new battery.

JM these are batteries that are in metal cases with individual cells that are sealed in with an asphalt product. These batteries weigh anywhere from 2 to 5,000 lbs. depending on the equipment and voltage, amperage requirement. We would remove the inner cell connectors and pull the non-performing cell completely out of the case. We then cleaned the cell with baking soda and water and plain water under no pressure greater than what you got from a hose. We vacuum out and cleaned the case with the same solution. After a thorough drying we reassembled the cell in the battery case. We also had floor drains in our battery room where all effluent went into a concrete vault. We had it pumped as necessary by an environmentally approved company. I hope I have answered your question. The battery companies are building these batteries (the individual cells in plastic now) which makes this type of maintenance more difficult but not impossible.

The batteries we are talking about weighed from 1800 lbs for a pallet jack to 5000 lbs for a large counter-balance electric forklift and averaged back in the 80's about a dollar a lb. new. If you could find an old style one today you would be competing with people who would be buying for scrap/salvage. I might look for an old one as well for use as battery backup for a whole house solar project since I could repair it myself and I can't afford the newer Tesla battery backups. The only recent experience I've had was to convert a selector machine like you would see at Lowe's or Home Depot to an elevator for a friends shop. We used the mast and electric hydraulic lift mechanism and removed the wheels and travel mechanism since we mounted it permenantly. By leaving the big 24 volt battery we were able to retain all the controls and just added limit switches to stop it on the second floor and a quality charging system which I salvaged from a 24 volt handicapped scooter. The battery was okay since it only ran the lft motor. If it has problems we will either repair it or replace it with 6 volt golfcart batteries in series to get our 24 volts. You might find a battery like this at an equip auction or scrap yard. The weight would make them desirable for scrap but not much else.

Hello and thanks for the video, I have a couple of questions. My UPS battery is not maintaining the charge, it is in use, last week we had a blackout and the UPS got off immediately. 1. For how much time should I have the battery out of the UPS, disconnected, before it is safe to open the battery?. 2. can I use only seawater to improve the performance and useful lifetime? Thanks in advance.

By just adding rainwater you're not going to realize the battery's full potential. You should be using distilled water and add some battery acid before topping up. Otherwise you will be diluting the electrolytes. But I have learnt how to flick a razor blade across the work surface.. Nice watch

Yeah you want to fill to just cover the plates as charge and discharge will effect the levels and it can boil and bubble when you charge it if no room for gas and such is left to allow expansion you might cause the battery to rupture if it doesn't have any kind of overflow or pressure release valve, like all sla batterys do not have... the other problem with agm sla battery recovery is that capacity is probably going to be nothing like a new one as the crystallized acid will form between the plates and the glass matting and spread plates sometimes even cause some plates to fracture and recovering from this isn't possible without recasting the lead with the sulfation insulating parts of the left over plates held into place by the agm making pulsing and such not able to cause it to fall off. probably get some use from them in conditions where they are not moving anymore and always in the upright position. wouldn't use them for a scooter or anything...

you need to add "desulfate from the SOFT sulfation only" into your description..there are two types of sulfation...soft, which is reversible..and hard, which isn't reversible ..and the hard one is one which happens the most to charge-deprivated long-stored batteries and nothing in this world can fix it

If I understand correctly, these batteries don't have liquid water or liquid acid even when new, and they are called gel cells. They can be used in almost any orientations in UPS applications. After adding the water, can you still use it sitting side ways?

The "gel" in a gel cell is silica sand. The electrolyte fills the spaces like a sponge. The normal level of the electrolyte is entirely contained in the sand. The battery should be fine in any position. If I were to copy this method, I'd add the water, charge the cells, drain off the excess water and then replace the caps.
