You guys are great! I've seen those and always wondered what the cost/benefit & function were...now I know! Seems like a "no brainer" from my view point.

Thanks for all the information!

Mark

Received my 3 Power Pulses yesterday and just finished installing them. They are blinking away. Is my understanding correct in that you will only see the little red light blinking if there is a charge being applied to the batteries?

Received the item in two days from the same link. I paid a couple of bucks more than some of you but felt it was worth it for the superb service and great no hassle return policy. They are hooked up and working great.

Blinking is normal.

I have noticed even at this link, that the pricing can fluctuate throughout the day and day to day. It's just how Amazon works. It's nice to have the direct link as it saves us all a lot of time and hassles. Thanks

I was lucky! I followed Tom's link and got one on Amazon for $32.00 including shipping, no tax. I only wanted one for the house bank, too busy to get it yet. I offered the guy Clarke bought his from but he wouldn't deal on just one.
PS They are now $43.79 on Amazon.

AGM batteries are too rich for my blood, just using lead-acids. I keep my batteries merged whenever plugged in, we never dry camp and I've never equalized them.

We just paid about $3800 for 4 new batteries and put 2 pulse power gadgets on them ($104 is cheap insurance to keep the batteries running longer)....also put 1 on the 2 batteries in the stacker trailer. Will let you know how it goes..

Jeff,

Just curious, what kind of batteries did you buy for that amount of money?

I sent in an email to PowerPulse and wanted to update.
I have one Hose Bank with four Trojan T-105 6 Volts DC Batteries wired in series and parallel to produce 12 Volts DC. They stated that one PowerPulse would work for that Battery Bank.
I have one Engine Starting Bank with two size 8D 12 Volts DC Batteries wired in parallel to produce 12 Volts DC. They stated that one PowerPulse would work for that Battery Bank.

This is for anyone searching for an outlet to purchase a power pulse 12 volt battery charger.

This is the one I installed on my '86 Newell and it works great. I actually had a "Brain Fart" when we were all going back in forth with John (cdat) on the subject.

Actually, a lot of the Newell's have these on them down at the factory. They just sit across the top of the batteries quietly doing there job. That is a great price by the way. Thanks for sharing. I know Larry B. brags to high heaven on the unit which tells us it must good.

They do seem to lengthen the life and less distilled added over time too, which is another good indicator....
