I discovered a simple technique that transformed a totally dead battery into a like new performing battery that tested at 100% of it’s charge capacity.
First, let me go back and set the background for you. I am a certified electronic technician in the biomedical and industrial fields. I worked in the research department of a company that developed pacemakers and implantable defibrillators.
I’ve also worked at NASA and I’ve worked at Texas Instruments. I’ve had 15 years experience in the electronics and electrical fields. So I know a little theory – to be modest. I’m a geek by most people’s standards.
So I decided that what I really needed to do is work for myself so that there is no limit to how much money I can make. That’s when I started my internet business. I started selling Bosch and Skil tools on the internet. And I noticed that there was a large market for batteries.
Rechargeable batteries allow the user to be free from cords that restrain and limit them to move around. More importantly, they allow the user to operate in remote locations where there are no power outlets.
We live in an increasingly more portable society. Everything is going cordless, cell phones, power tools, iPods, Blackberries just to name a few. And all these cordless devices need rechargeable batteries.
As I’m sure you already know, rechargeable batteries have a limited lifespan. There are only so many times that you can charge, use and recharge them. Often times the battery can burn out the charger and people just think that the charger is bad only to find out when they get another charger that the battery burned that one out too.
This caused me considerable frustration. I was replacing alot of free chargers but I also was able to convince some to upgrade to a smart charger. Why? Because first of all, a smart charger will not burn out. It senses the temperature inside the battery and stops charging when it reaches a certain threshold.
Secondly, the smart charger will extend the life of the battery. How? Because it stops charging when the battery reaches a full charge. Whereas, the standard charger continues to charge the battery after it reaches a full charge.
This over-charges the battery and reduces the the life span of the battery. This is particularly noticeable for those that like to always keep their battery on a charger when not in use.
I was in my home office testing and reconditioning batteries for my customers when I discovered this one technique that zaps a non-responsive battery into operation.
So I had a battery that was dead and had no voltage output. I was about to tell the customer that there was no hope for this battery.
Then I figured that I had nothing to lose and that this battery would be a good candidate for testing my rejuvenation…
