Arild --- If you say, snip: "The desulfator works by pumping extra
electrons into the lead sulfate and keeping it from forming or else
growing into the crystalline form."
Then I would be right in assuming that the Pulsetech is preventing
sulphation and equalization would not normally be needed.
Underway I would be driving the inverter from the house bank which in
its turn is being charged from the alternator. At anchor or mooring were
I to use the battery charger for the separate starting battery it would
be depleting the house bank via the inverter. However I would rarely do
that since as you say would be wasting energy. I haven't considered the
solar versions since I am rarely more than a week or two at anchor or
mooring without getting underway.
You say snip: "However, equalization does two things. In the case of
flooded batteries it also helps stir up the electrolyte to give a
homogenized mix without stratification. Vigorous charging at frequent
intervals will also
stir up the electrolyte. But if you store a battery for several months
on end, the liquid will stratify. " --
However does this in fact happen if one is to use continuous Pulsetechs
- one unit per battery? According to them I think not.
