Early this year, my deep-cycle RV battery which operates numerous things here at n5gax went belly-up, and I'd been using an ibm-surplus dc supply to run things for a few months. In early Nov., I was pricing deep-cycle batteries and cringing, so I decided to try one of those bottles of battery rejuvenator -- I had little to lose. Heeey! It worked! The bottle says it contains cadmium sulfate. Does anyone out there know what this stuff does, and the details of the chemistry involved? While we're on that subject, can someone recommend a good, reasonably compre- hensive and up-to-date reference that describes the electrochemistry of various battery systems? T.I.A., d PS: I got one of those Aluminum-air battery kits from Edmund Sci. I'll be experimenting with it, and will probably post some preliminary results...well, opinions, anyway, in Jan. or Feb. d -- Always pay careful attention to the man behind the curtain.
