REPLY
It appears to be an Australian copy of the Pulsetech device originally
developed for the US Army by a Texas company back in 1987.
I have been using these for about five years now in civilian applications.
The claims made by the manufacturer are true and the technology works.
At this time I have four of the units in use in my shop and usually install
them on every major system installation I do.
Approximately 80% of so called "dead" batteries are simply sulfated badly and
can be recovered by using the pulse technology.
Over the years I have salvaged several thousand dollars worth of expensive
deep cycle batteries.
Thsi Megapulse product seem to have acouple of innovations compared to the
original Pulsetech. Only time will tell if they are gimmicks or worthwhile
additions to the basic technology.
I didn't see a price but th eUS Pulsetech version sells for $79 and is
definitely worth it.
regards
Arild
