Scientific basis for desulphation process/circuitry
Every element known to man has a magnetic moment at a resonant frequency ie. a point at which the chemical bonds that hold the molecules together to form a crystal can be broken. Sulphation, the number one cause of early battery failure, is simply crystals of lead sulphate (PbS04) which have formed on the lead storage plates in a lead-acid type battery.

When a battery is improperly charged (over/under) or allowed to self discharge as occurs during storage/non-use, these crystals build up on the battery's storage plates preventing the battery from ever being fully charged and therefore able to deliver their full power/capacity.

VDC Electronics, Inc. has created a simple method of generating the required resonant frequency (3.26 megahertz pulse) to breakdown the lead sulphate crystals, allowing the molecules to return to the battery's electrolyte.  By creating a wave form with the required 3.26 Mhz frequency, coupled with a very fast rise time and a high amplitude pulse, more energy in developed to breakdown sulphation than by any other method believed to exist.  This unique approach is now U.S. Patent #6,184.650 B1 dated Feb. 6, 2001.

Note:  Not every battery is a candidate for re-conditioning due to mechanical damage caused by vibration or contamination, which has created is "shorted" cells.  If a 12 volt battery has a resting voltage of at least 11.0 and none of the 6 cells are shorted, desulphation of its plates can be accomplished.
