"I've
impressed a friend with the results I've been getting
from my RC-2A12..." - Peter K. Campbell

"Garage
sale special for only $10 because throttle was broken
and two 12V gel batteries were useless, which would not
take a conventional charge. This bike costs $239 new.
Maximum weight is 140 lbs. We test drove it with a 170lbs
person up hills. It now works great after charging with
two RC-2A12-2 chargers (one for each battery with fuse
removed)."

"I
have purchased two battery chargers... The first was 12V
charger model # RC-2A12-2. After the success I had with
the first charger, I purchased the universal rechargeable
battery charger model #RC-1AU-120. I want to thank you
for your fine products.
After purchasing the first charger this winter, I saw
what it could do. I had an approximately 3 year old battery
on my ATV. The battery would not stay charged after multiple
attempts with an ordinary motorcycle battery charger.
I could get the battery to start the ATV immediately after
the charge, but by the next day, it was inoperable. After
the Universal charger was used, the battery is as good
as it was new. I have used it for months and it works
impeccably.
When I heard that the company was coming out with a charger
that would charge nickel-metal hydride and nickel-cadmium,
I was eager to purchase one. I was very impressed after
a drill battery of mine was brought back to useable service.
The battery was over 17 years old and was all but useless.
It only gave a few minutes of service before becoming
so weak it could not be used. I had given up on it and
had laid it aside to be recycled or discarded. After using
your charger, it is as good as new. It is powerful and
useful.
Thank you for your excellent products. I am a very satisfied
customer."

"I
am very impressed with the charger! I had a 1,165 cranking
amp excavator battery that wouldn't even hold a charge
for a few hours. After charging for 24 hours, I connected
it to my Sun Danzer refrigerator. It has been running
3 days and the voltage is still 12.5!" - Timothy
Martin, Parishville, NY
|
"My
car for several days was losing power on several electric
functions like the lights and heater, etc. Finally one
cold day the car could not start. The RC-2A12-2 charger
was then used for one night restoring my battery to a
useable condition. Forty days later I have not had any
of those problems, even in extremely cold conditions."

"I
recently came across a 12volt deep cycle marine battery
that was showing .09 volts across the terminals.
Even my
Charger saw it as a dead short. I took a good battery
and piggybacked it with the dead battery (see photo
above). The Charger showed good charging, and the bad
battery did not short the circuit because it was in
parallel with the good battery. After 2 days the charger
showed a full charge.
Amazingly
the deep cycle battery that had been shorted was at
12.5 volts. The first time I used it I discharged it
at 1 amp per hour, it put out 9 amps, bringing it down
to 12.01 volts. this battery had been sitting outside
for 7 years, had never been charged since we had purchased
the device it came in, we had never needed it before.
I have been load cycling this battery for the past 2
weeks using it to power a 1 amp load, thru my watts
up meter. Yesterday after the 6th cycle it had run for
24 hours, putting out 1 amp continuous and was at 12.14
volts. As of yesterday resting voltage is 12.86, it
charges in 12 hours or so on the charger. Each cycle
has brought the battery to a higher capacity. I can
now run my 1 amp load 24hrs straight with 1 battery."

"Have 50 out of the 80 batteries recharged and
working great... All of them were at 5 to 6 volts when
they were taken out of the battery backup unit and needed
a good battery in parallel with it to turn on the charger.
. . Load tested a few of them after a few cycles and they
are right back up to their rated 9ah's; and they hold
their charge really good. The Charger is a great charger...
See attached picture, only 30 batteries to go."

Charge/Discharge Cycles Completed on the Charger.
"See my latest results with the 12 amp hr SLA 12
volt battery. To say I am happy with the charger is the
understatement of the year! I hope to do 18 cycles on
the battery and call it a wrap unless it still significantly
is improving as it still is now.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I received the charger
and have put it to work about 100% of the time I've had
it already. I had an old group 58 battery that was bone
dry and 0.00 voltage. I added distilled water to all the
cells and took it to Autozone to have them "quick charge"
it up but it kicked off on the machine after 5 minutes
due to high amps on three tries. They guaranteed me it
was a bad battery. This quick charger was enough to get
it to 11 volts so I was happy that now I could use the
charger I purchased from you. I put it on and successfully
charged up the battery to 12.5 volts in 12 hours. I let
it sit dormant today and it ran down to 12.3 volts, I
have put it back on the charger again for another 12 hours.
Its happily clicking away inside. :) I have no doubt that
this charger will save many more batteries like this and
thus far its saved me $50 on that one battery.
My group 65 battery in my pickup would only charge up
to 12.53 volts and was slow at cranking. The charger is
happily working its magic on it as well and easily charged
it to 13.2 volts and it fires off quickly now!
I'll give you guys more definitive quantitative data and
less subjective data once I have the CB2 load tester."

"I
was waiting for my truck's battery to finally die so I
could test the charger on it. As the cold weather came
in it was harder to start. The other day it didn't start
as it was below freezing. So I got the charger out for
an opportunity to test it in a real life situation. And
a few hours later the battery got a second life with only
one charge. No problem starting it now in weather 10 degrees
lower than that day. I expect to do this every six months
or so for many years to come." - Rick
Friedrich

"I
Successfully revived 2 car batteries... (I have run it
at 100% Duty Cycle since then, no problems). So I decided
that I would hopefully add value to the data taking process
by using the commercial professional product and restore
some batteries in the process as claimed. Well I will
say that there were times when I was starting to question
myself for buying a $200 battery charger. But I pressed
on and was most delighted, I have the print out slip from
the Sun VAT45 battery tester which tested my 575CCA battery
at a 580CCA rate and gave a state of charge report of
100%. ... I am a firm believer now." - Francis,
Seattle

"I
have been making good progress on testing the RC-2A12-1.
This little beauty has been going night and day for over
a month now. It has been able to revive some junk 55Ah
and 80Ah gel cells (after adding a little de-mineralized
water to them), as well as charging up 12 x 130Ah deep
cycle/marine lead-acid batteries."

"I
have been professionally charging batteries of all sizes
for more than thirty years. I have even been a maintenance
engineer in a battery factory and I have never seen any
charger do what this charger can do.
I
am doing a side by side comparison with a standard trickle
charger against your charger using two identical batteries
bought at the same time and applied to a common marine
application running until replaced due to batteries only
being at 40% capacity due to sulfation. I borrowed the
twin 50 Ah deep cycle batteries from my NAPA distributor's
recycle pile for testing. The capacity was confirmed by
a NAPA battery analyzer.
After
six charge discharge cycles I have found your charger
to use only half the amp draw as the standard trickle
charger and the 2A12 charged battery last longer
and longer each discharge cycle; at last count it
last 3 hours and 10 minutes longer with same load applied.
Let me break it down for you. It cost me half the money
compared to the conventional trickle charger to get 3
hours and ten minutes longer charge..."

"I
own a 2A12 charger. I have been using it for close to
2 months, using it to restore a pair of trojan t125
batteries wired in series so the charger sees 12 volts.
at the beginning of my process testing this charger
I purposly chose to test the charger on batteries I
knew were not good. All of the cells in one battery
would not go above 1.200 specific gravity and the other
battery had 1 cell that was dead, below 1.100 specific
gravity, and would not come back. The dead cell had
that dirty muddy look in the electrolyte you get from
a bad cell. Both of these batteries had been force charged
with a christie charger, and equalized with a computer
controlled electronic 30 amp charger. I have a fleet
of vehicles that use these batteries, I maintain 80
of these units on a weekly basis and have done so for
over a decade.
I began charge/discharge cycling, at first I was disapointed,
but after 2 months of charging each time until there
is no change in the specific gravity, then drawing down
with a 12 amp load (3 automotive headlights) thru a
"watts up" meter that logs watt hours and joules, these
batteries have come to life, and actually are getting
stronger, producing more work. each time I cycle them
down to the same voltage.
Resting
voltage after charging and allowing a day for sag, is
above 13.5 and specific gravity is above 1.310 in 5
of the six cells. as I continue to use this little charger,
I am confident I will be able to restore more batteries,
and when their big charger comes out, I will be buying
it too, so I can charge and desulfate more batteries
at a time. restoring these two batteries that I could
no longer use, saved me almost 200 dollars, the cost
of replacing them. My little charger is working wonders!!"
- Tom
|
"I
want to do more testing but from what I have experienced
with the 2A12 charger - it is a SUPER WINNER! On one of
my batteries, I saw a 15% increase in runtime using a
load over just the last charging. I am really impressed.
Keep up your good work!"

"This
little charger, however small and undersize it may seem
is really quite a workhorse! In just 6 cycles it has restored
this battery to a remarkable level. I might add that the
battery has maintained its charge for several days, no
fluctuation. Seeing is believing. These kind of results
are unheard of! I definately believe there are huge savings
to gain using this technology." - Harold Weaver,

"I
am glad you could place such great products as the RC-1AU
on the global market place already!...
Could start using the charger from January 23, 2009 in
Tokyo Japan. It rejuvenated 4 Sealed Lead Acid batteries
by "Japan Storage Battery Co. Ltd.", type PORTALAC PXL12090
12V/9AH which were running already 5 Years in an APC Smart
UPS 1500VA. According to the APC Smart unit battery status
indicator these batteries had to be replaced this January.
Charged all 4 batteries separately in charge mode 5, 12V
2-4AH successfully - taking about 40 Minutes each. They
are back in use in the APC Smart UPS.
On the 31st of January rejuvenated two 10 year old NiMH
cells in my Philishaver 3870 which wouldn't hold charge
anymore in the normal way.Since 3 years ago this electrical
shaver could only be used attached to the grid. Now it
can be used cordless again with sufficient driving power.
On the 1st of February 2009 rejuvenated a Sanyo 2.4V/600mAh
NiCd batterypack of an old Sanyo cordless phone
set picked up from from the garbage collection depot of
our mansion dated 2000/July.
These
batteries were especially interesting to test because
both 1.2V cells were showing 0V on the Volt meter. This
might be the reason why the previous Japanese owner had
thrown his phone set away. Trying to charge them would
cause the charge indicator flash in red.
Per
advise from the RC-1AU manual kept the VDB button pressed
for 60 seconds after which the charge indicator went into
solid
red! A few hours later it went green and the Voltmeter's
reading was 2.6 V instead of zero!
I
use the pack now in our own 5 year old Sanyo cordless
phone set for endurance testing. This more than 8 year
old pack was almost doomed to be recycled in a more destructive
way. Don't regret took it out from the garbage collection
depot.
On February 2, charged a 7.2V @160mAh battery pack from
an electric model helicopter, picked up from the garbage
collection depot (based on 6 GP Batteries NiMH 16AAAM
cells) successfully in charge position 1. With this powerpack
charged this way this model helicopter can fly again."

"I
purchased an RC-1AU , and have used it on everything in
the house that is rechargeable. Cordless telephones, Ski-Doo
Electric divers propeller, and especially the newer longer
lasting Nickel-metal-hydride batteries, all kinds of cordless
power tools. The claims hold up for the increased run
times too! 2 - 2.5 times the normal run time is typical.
Finally, electronics have made the transfer from being
limited to electrical engineering that has been held in
a lobotomized state for the past 120 years !!! If I was
not a disabled veteran, I would be sending you my resume."

"I
wish to thank you for your great products...
First,
I found the large 30 amp system was going to pay itself
out in literally no time. My intention was to build
a solar bank and try to keep the costs down. Frankly,
common sense says that spending $1,500 for a battery charger
is a bit contrary to that effort. However, after
taking the time to put a half dozen lead-acid batteries
that were non-functional, back into service—I saw
that I could find and bring into service older discarded
batteries for a “near free” battery bank for
my solar system. I am now doing that. The
‘repair’ time on these batteries has ranged
from 12 hours on a smaller lead acid battery, to 4 days
on a ‘pair’ of T105 Trojan batteries that
are part of this solar build.
While
this was going on, I started using the 1AU on my cordless
tool batteries that were no longer functional—the
ones that I kept hoping some day to replace the batteries
in.
What
I found was that some of these batteries (the ones that
would no longer drive my tools at all) were “open”,
that is to say, they could not give or receive current.
I did a couple of ‘dissections’ and found
that the commercial chargers had driven off the electrolyte
leaving the batteries unable to take a charge—these
I discarded at a Home Depot. The other batteries
for these power tools-- I have completely ceased using
the manufacturer’s charger on and only use
the 1AU to charge them. The batteries charged with
the 1AU have come back to full (or better) power, and
they seem to run longer and produce more work while running.
I am more than satisfied with this unit.
So,
suffice it to say that I am way ahead economically with
the purchase of your two separate battery chargers.
They were well worth the expense. I have also gained
some economic freedom in their use."

"My
small company has spent a lot of money on cordless drills
over the past 10 years, just to get new batteries.
My manufacturing company has been using the 1AU charger
for our five year old 14.4V cordless drill batteries.
6 out of 8 batteries are performing like new. The $320
charger saved me over $600 in new batteries.
The 1AU charger is the only charger I allow employees
to use on any battery. All traditional chargers are boxed
up and sitting on the shelf. Everyone is simply amazed.
Friends and family started bringing in old batteries...
I've started telling them to "get their own charger".
Thank you guys for bringing such and innovative line of
products to market!"

"My
latest battery testing results are nothing short of historic
(in my opinion).
Battery
Charger used; (model no. 1AU Universal Rechargeable Battery
Charger)
Batteries
tested; Sanyo Eneloop AA (world's first pre-charged rechargeable
battery and widely considered to be the longest lasting
batteries in the world)
Results
so far; After 2 charge cycles the picture-taking capacity
has gone from 500+/- (on the original charge) to about
1000+/- and getting better.
...THIS,
and THIS alone could be the foundation for a completely
new 'green' movement and usher in an era of TRUE sustainability."

"My
father in-law is absolutely in love with his 1AU. The
battery in his electric weed eater has increased charge
density (based on running time) of about 110% after just
8 or 9 charge cyles. We have charged all manner of 12v
& 18v tool batteries, back-up power supply batteries,
1,000,000 candlelight power flashlight batteries, cordless
phone battery packs, etc. The results are just stunning
and it won't be long before every guy I know will have
one or want one.
By the way we're also charging the latest and greatest
NiMH batteries produced by Sanyo called Eneloop(google
it). The world's 1st pre-charged rechargeable battery
product. They claim that they're battery will retain at
least 80% of it's initial charge capacity after 1 year's
time. Of course that mean's they've already resigned us
to a dying product but it will die more slowly. OK. My
1st set of batteries lasted for 285 pictues in my brand
new digital camera on their original charge. So after
1 year I should still get about 228 pictures per conventional
charge.
That's
not bad I guess, except that after one charge on the 1AU
the batteries lasted for 513 pictures. I've only just
charged it a second time, so I'm snapping away again.
Who would've thought that charging batteries could be
this much fun!"

"I
have attached a graph showing the results of testing the
1AU
The testing was done on a 5 year old 18V 2.4Ah NiCd portable
drill battery.
Whilst the battery still has one shorted cell and one
weak cell (out of 15 cells), the 1AU was able to recover
this battery that would not hold a charge with the original
charger. After firstly charging on a lower (12V) setting
where only 10 cells were visible I was then able to charge
the battery on the full 18V setting where the battery's
capacity increased by over 250%! This battery was destined
for the dump, but has now been placed back in service
- saving over $200 that would have been spent to replace
it."
- John K., Australia

"I
recieved it and put it test right away! I was able to
recharge an old and tired Porter Cable 18V battery and
even after the first charge I can tell it's got more guts
than it should have normally. So far great product."
- Jean
|
"Wow!
I can't believe the power that is now in that battery.
It was a weak drill before. I had to push so much harder
than I do now. I am so impressed. So amazing."

"I
recently bought one of your 30A12 units. I wanted
you to know that it has now brought four of my eight unusable,
highly sufated batteries back to life. It took two
or three cycles to do so. Now I am going to apply
it to the other six batteries (Trojan
T105 deep dishcharge). Thank you for making
it possible for me to reclame these batteries and keep
another 16 batteries (newer) working well." -

"I
am the president of Panhandle Electric Vehicle Association
in Idaho (Electric Auto Association). I am also the service
Manager for Go Green Electric cars in Post Falls. I am
the owner Gordo'z Electric Speed Shop. We do conversion
cars there.
I have had a 24A12 charger for about 2 weeks in my shop.
We have been charging all kinds of different batteries
with it. The battery distributor guy put a $500 tester
on a battery that had been sitting for 48 hours after
being charged and it was missing 20% of its lead. But
it then read 125% of its capacity. So we loaded it three
times with the meter to make sure there was no surface
charge to give a false reading. On the third time it only
took 45 seconds to recover rather than 3 minutes it usually
takes for normal batteries. This battery was a 2001 around
850 CA from a dual battery diesel Dodge 2001 with Cummins.
We loaded it three more times and it was fine. So at that
point the local battery distributor said "when do I get
one?"
So now everyone is just dropping batteries off at the
shop and the charger is running constantly. Anything that
is mechanically sound will recover so far. Some batteries
take 12 hours and a few will take about 3 days.
It is getting to be a pain because I am spending my time
restoring everyone's batteries instead of doing other
work!"

"I
have a loader with two big batteries that wouldn't take
a charge. I charged them for 10 hours but next morning
batteries were low. Put both on the Rejuvenator, one came
back and other was twice as good. The one battery did
not come back to its full rating.
I
had two more truck batteries from Napa that were Exide
truck batteries that would not take a charge. Now they
are still holding charge just like brand new. They are
5 or 6 years old."

"...Doubled
the mileage of the wore-out batteris in my 96V Suzuki
conversion afer only 1 week!" - Frank
Reed, Hayden, Idaho
|
"26
miles was done after the (name brand, onboard conventional)
charge, 33 and 41.5 are the two drives after charging
on your charger.
The
initial range of this vehicle was 60 miles but was fallen
off dramatically in the last few months. It looks like
the trend is being reversed. I am now finding some interesting
things. Low batteries are going from what I would call
"bad" to performing in sync with the other batteries
in the pack."
