Desulfating Coach Batteries

[Texas Clodhopper]

I've used a Battery Minder desulfator on my cars, lawn tractors, etc for several years with amazing success. I regularly replaced my lawn tractor battery annually until I started using the Battery Minder; now I get as long as 4 years. My last Jeep had a 3-year Wally World battery and it was 5 years old and still going strong when I sold the Jeep.

I would like to use it on the 8 Interstate wet cell house batteries on my Ventana but I'm not sure how it works on multiple batteries. Are there any experienced users on the forum?

I can't say that this is typical, but I had to take mine out of series and do them one at a time. Had no luck when they were in series/parallel.

Thanks, Jim. My Batteryminder is for 12v batteries and I have 8 - 6v house batteries.

You can use your Magnum remote to put the system into Equalization mode which does this. I do this twice a year. Make sure you're in FLOAT and you're on a strong power supply such as a non stressed pedestal without all AC's and washer/dryer etc. running as it can put a high load on the pedestal:

Thanks, Neal. That was going to be my fallback position. How long do you set the equalizer mode to run?

It does its own thing, I think it can take several hours, so be sure you have at least 12-24 hours on the pedestal 50A. I'm not aware of a time option to set.
