I red in a 4WD mag somebody recomending to put Inox conditioner in your batteries to make them last........ just wondering if that's another dream time story or does it actually work?

I put some in my 3 year old battery back in March 05. It was showing some white spots on the plates which I thought was a
sign the battery was dying.
The white spots are now gone and the battery showed no signs of failing in the cold this winter.
Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but for $9.00 it's worth a try. It doesn't seem to harm the battery so there is no apparent downside.

Thanks to all, gues for $8 why not......Im just testing a deep cycle battery without Inox and then with inox.
I charged the Battery fully and hooked a 12 watt fluro up to watch the voltage drop over 24hrs. That should be the ultimate
test to see if it makes any difference.
A good weekend to everybody
cheers

Reiner,
Charge it up then leave it for a day or so, then connect the light and
check the voltage at regular intervals, writing down the results and the times.
Then add the inox, leave for a few days exactly as before, fully charge the battery as previously and then connect the light the same number of days later and
check the voltages at the same times as previously...
Sure it's a pain doing things exactly the same both times but anything else is only going to give you a rough result that can be questioned and not relied upon.... as I said it is a pain, but rewarding when you get results that can't be disputed because you have checked the battery at different times or had a different load at the start, and yes, I am very interested in the answers :-)
