Review on πŸ”Œ BatteryMINDer 128CEC1: High Performance 12V Battery Charger, Maintainer & Desulfator by Yung Kitamura

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great battery recovery tool

This tool has paid for itself several times over for me. Saved me 3 car batteries. I saved a recycling center where I volunteered 5 batteries and allowed us to keep some batteries for families in need. I recommend it to everyone I speak to if there is a problem with the 12v battery, there have been 2 sales to such lucky users, the recycling center would already be the 3rd if we weren't so chronically underfunded. However, he also had some flops. No luck removing dead AGM batteries from portable power supplies, trailers, UPS etc, have tried dozens of these but diagnostics always says bad battery. Couldn't salvage a parallel set of three deep cycle truck batteries, they failed, then two cells failed, one could have been useful on its own but the whole set was swapped out for a spare set. These are niche applications that are likely to require a more specialized charger (e.g. one could imagine a multi-channel smart desulfator to match the kit, or a smaller dedicated 6V/12V AGM desulfator).

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Big and bulky
