The Battery Life Saver electronic device will extend the life of any lead-acid battery and can rejuvenate “dead” batteries to a like new condition. But how does it work? To understand the technology behind the BLS, we must first understand how a battery works.
In a normal battery we have three basic elements: one plate made of lead, an electrolyte of sulfuric acid and another plate made of lead oxide. When the battery is discharged, the sulfuric acid in the electrolyte reacts with the lead and lead oxide releasing electricity, forming lead sulfate. This leaves a watery electrolyte solution. When a battery is completely discharged, what is left is lead sulfate and water. When you recharge the battery, the electrical current causes the lead sulfate to break apart. This returns the system to the original elements of lead and lead oxide on the plates and sulfuric acid in the electrolyte, for the most part.
When the battery is recharged, a small amount of lead sulfate maintains its sulfate configuration (sulfate crystal).
These sulfates crystals
cannot be reconverted using a regular electric current. Every time
the battery is discharged, more of these crystals are produced and
the electrolyte solution becomes more watery. Like layers of snow on
a garden they continue to accumulate until you can no longer see the
garden. These crystals interfere with the flow of electricity in and
out of the battery. The battery will take longer
to charge and a charge will last less time. A perfectly good battery
will seem dead because lead sulfate has built up on the plates.
The Battery Life Saver electronic device solves this problem by dissolving the buildup of lead sulfate crystals. The BLS sends a radio signal through the battery, targeting the lead sulfate crystals (even those that could not be dissolved by recharging), converting them back into lead and sulfuric acid. Each crystal is like a tiny radio receiver. In fact, when the radio was invented, a lead sulfate crystal was used for the receiver. The BLS action gradually restores the battery back to its original condition and allows the electrical charge to be drawn from the battery.
Electronic and chemical
desulfators have been on the market for years.
How is the BLS different? The biggest difference
is the BLS’s ability to target the whole range of sulfates that
accumulate on the lead plates. As discussed above, regular electric
current does not have the ability to do this. Electronic desulfators
(commonly known as pulsers) send a high amount of voltage for a
short period of time throughout the battery to knock down the
crystals (similar to overcharging). They are unable to dissolve all
the different types of sulfates. You can get some initial apparent
improvement but the continued use of the other desulfators that
knock down crystals cause two negative effects on the battery:
1.) If you continue to use the pulser, the
crystals will continue to
accumulate at the bottom of the battery which can eventually
cause a short cell.
2.) The plates will become thinner and the sulfuric acid will
become weaker because any lead sulfate that falls to the bottom of
the battery cannot be recovered.
The Battery Life Saver electronic device dissolves the lead sulfate
crystals that are covering the plates, converting them back into the
original elements. It rejuvenates the sulfuric acid solution as well
as the lead plates.
