cant believe that theres no presence on net or at least one person here thats familiar with this.
I tried it for a short time last night(pics to follow when I can attend to do a full charge)
It definitely puts out a fluctuating high current burst.

I am subscribing to this thread, i need a charger to do exactly what this one claims to do. We handle a lot of used batteries and I need something to rejuvenate some of the borderline ones.

this is really a mystery
put it on "II" which is turn on and push the momentary button marked II.
it starts out with green flashing light same frequency as the pulse. then transfers to yellow light and seems to begin discharging a pretty much fully charged battery. So far its got it down to 12.34V from 12.6. I will get it run its course,perhaps this is part of the cycle but without instructions or a way to contact the manufacturer Im really lost.
Normal reconditioning takes about 3 cycles of charge discharge so maybe this is doing just that.

I never heard of this before, but I found this reference. I don't know if this reference is correct.

I've never seen anything showing these work from a reasonable technical test.

Take a look at CTEK chargers. They have them on Amazon. I have one and its excellent.

I already have a pretty good assortment of chargers
smart chargers,dumb auto transformer chargers,225amp roll around
trickle chargers with maintenance mode,etc
This one is supposed to be a commercial unit made more for reconditioning
vs just charging.
Still without any documents its like handing a loaded gun to a baby.

update:
overnite charging went from the what seemed like discharge mode with steady yellow light
back to the pulsing green light with noticeable crack like a cap discharging and voltage pulsing. Voltage is back up to around 12.5 so far and seems to be climbing.

observed it going up to 13.1 after pulsing all day.
sometime in the night it switched to the discharge mode again and this AM was back down to 12.3. Im guessing it will discharge a little lower then go back to the pulsation.

Heh - back-tracking through various press releases, it looks like they moved from the "alternative and exotic energy" market into some kind of boat design deal, and then finally into medical marijuana.

next I will try just the first setting and see what it does.

Any update, ideally what I would like to see is a few bad batteries now holding charge and working well for some "reasonable" period of time.

Now I don't believe in pulsing desulfator, having tried a couple.
Use equalizing charge (15.8V) and it fix all my "bad" batteries electrolyte problem.
