  • can i buy that in holland and what is the cost of it????

  • @soverato3 i would think so?

    cost? no idea

  • redriderno22 Will this work on batteries that read lower than 12volts?or does that mean there is a dead cell?

    Thanks!

  • @mobcittty251 if a batt reads less than 12 volts it may have a shorted cell

    but to be sure put it on charge for a few hours to see if the voltage comes up

  • Hi,

    I think you had to boil the distilled water+Epsom salt solution first up to 150C before pouring it to your battery. Anyways, its been over 6 months since you uploaded this video. What was the results of your frozen solid battery? If it worked for you, then I would say this trick would work for any kind of condition.

  • @yafilmDOTcom yes i did boil the water first to get the salts to completely disolve

    and this works on about half of the batteries ive used it on, but most of the batteries ive done this to came from the junk pile

see all

  • you are wonderful

  • post the results please!

  • I did not know epson salt could form enough acidity to allow the electrons to flow. do you pore out the epson solution after 48 hours of charge and then replace it with the sulferic acid solution.

  • @DrMotorDude  thnx you helped me allot

  • @soverato3 Yes you can, it should be in any pharmacy "Epsom zout" I'm not sure what the correct translation is.

  • If the cells are damage by freezing inside the battery is damage and needs internal repairs.

  • Hi, You did not mention what settings you put the charger on could you please point this out? Thank you

  • buy epsom salt on ebay
