Hey Mike. I finally had the chance to do this for the first time, a few weeks ago. Because my own batteries are AGM's I had to wait for a dead lead acid battery. My father-in-law's one died and I used your method. And it works again. It's a great tip. Have a great week. Dutch regards, Nico.

Saw your other video using a 200A charger & jump starter and was likewise checking out expensive chargers but today I saw this vid and my brain lit up in an eureka moment because I do have a welder in the house, thanks for saving my wallet!

[@albertyowell5455]

I got the Amico welder you suggest. I’ve had about 25% success with discarded batteries on our farm. I got a meat thermometer at Walmart & put in one of the cells while it’s “boiling”. It’s December & about 40 degrees, but the temp only goes up 10-15 degrees while the battery is bubbling. So the bubbles are not from boiling, but from hydrogen gas being released. (My assumption). However one battery did get hot; thermometer read 160, so I discontinued the process on that battery. I removed the working batteries from several vehicles & did the 5 minutes x 3. So far it seems to improve those batteries. I rekin we have more than 75 batteries on the farm & in family vehicles, so I gotta get this restoration process to work. I’ve tried to restore several big group 31 batteries to put in our Kawasaki wheel loader. I got one up to 13+volts & 1200 CCA, but wouldn’t crank the big diesel, (which takes 2 in series….24v.) So I had to buy a new NAPA $300 battery yesterday & the other battery in the loader is a basic car battery that did recover. That’s in there temporarily until I can get some bigger battery restored. I’ve tried 3 truck batteries (with threaded posts). One seems to have a bad cell that barely bubbles….it reads 10.5v. I’ve cooked it at least 10 times & up to 200 Amps. The Amico welder exceeds its duty cycle often & it takes an hour for it to reboot itself. So I only go above 100 amps momentarily. The other 2 truck batteries will show 13+ volts, but weak on the load meter. I’m getting weak readings on the hydrometer on most of these batteries I’m trying to restore. So I rekin I’m going to drain & rinse them then add fresh acid/water. I get different info about the acid/water ratio….20% acid to 35% acid. I will NEVER do this trick with the battery in the vehicle. Acid usually bubbles out. As you mentioned many times, MAKE SURE THE WELDER IS OFF BEFORE DISCONNECTING THE LEADS. This welder is putting out current even if the amps are set at zero. I already blew up one battery. Now my Salvation Army jacket has holes…. And don’t turn the Amico welder off until the cooling fan stops running. And this: you guys quit asking the same questions that have already been answered….like can I use my AC welder? If that’s where you’re at, just go buy a new batt & watch boring World Cup.

[@jonathansherwood5841]

Yep, not all maintenance-free batteries are completely sealed, but you won't know until you check. This is a good one you showed. Takes more effort, but sometimes all it needs is some water and a charge, and you are back in business! Glad you brought out to use distilled water! I keep a couple gallons at work specifically for filling up batteries. 🐺🔧 I've done something similar with the scissor aerial lift at work; the operators kept trying to charge the lift. But it wouldn't work once the charger was unplugged. Batteries would have to be ordered, about two weeks out. The inspector that they scheduled was slated to come in the next day. Honestly, they had tried to charge the batteries so much that they were very hot when I got it, I'm sure their lifespan had been compromised, but I figured I give it a go anyway. Either it would work or not, right? I pulled out all four batteries, refilled the batteries, and was able to get three out of the four batteries amperage back up using the large battery charger. The fourth battery was a little on the low side for CCA, but the voltage returned. Put all four batteries back in after the initial charge on each one, then I let the onboard charger finish the battery charging overnight. Facilities were happy the lift was operational when the inspector came to do the bay doors the following day. As far as I know, those batteries are still in the lift! 😆

I don't have a 2nd identical alligator clip.. can I just somehow clip the electrodes-holder to the other batt pole as if it was a 2nd clip-on and turn the welder at lowest and raise it up like you said and shown?

Have you ever had one that boiled real good on two of the six holes and barely bubbled into the others and not at all and two of the other holes if so was the battery worth trying to save his battery was working fine six months ago and it has set for 6 months now sudden it won't take

[@SweetProjectCars]

Yes, but you can do this entire process up to 5 times if all of the cells don't boil after that, your battery is toast my friend. Thanks for watching and asking, hope this helps, have a great week and all the best on your project. mad Mike the hammer SPC

Great video!!!! Tried it on my truck battery and worked great. I want to do it to my bmw batteries but I can’t figure out how to remove the cell caps. They won’t come out using a screw driver. Not sure if they are twist if so I will need a tool to remove them.

[@SweetProjectCars]

If there's a slot in them, take a quarter and clamp on to it with these amzn.to/3pffWEl then twist them out, if they just spin and don't move up you will have to pry them out.

The "Boiling" is just to mix the water and acid back to being Homogeneous, Right ? A Normal Battery Charger would do this, but take a lot longer.

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

I have longer reliability by using a 200 amp battery charger, cooking the battery 3 times 1/2 hr then empty it out, clean it out with distilled water then put new acid in it them slow charge overnight I usually get a average of 6 years but 3 times max is the life doing this

@@SweetProjectCars I watched the whole video. I was just curious what the voltage was while putting current through the battery. It wasn’t stated in the video. My welder will hold 25v while putting 60amps current into the battery. The more current I use, the less voltage.

I got the Amico welder you suggest. I’ve had about 25% success with discarded batteries on our farm. I got a meat thermometer at Walmart & put in one of the cells while it’s “boiling”. It’s December & about 40 degrees, but the temp only goes up 10-15 degrees while the battery is bubbling. So the bubbles are not from boiling, but from hydrogen gas being released. (My assumption). However one battery did get hot; thermometer read 160, so I discontinued the process on that battery. I removed the working batteries from several vehicles & did the 5 minutes x 3. So far it seems to improve those batteries. I rekin we have more than 75 batteries on the farm & in family vehicles, so I gotta get this restoration process to work. I’ve tried to restore several big group 31 batteries to put in our Kawasaki wheel loader. I got one up to 13+volts & 1200 CCA, but wouldn’t crank the big diesel, (which takes 2 in series….24v.) So I had to buy a new NAPA $300 battery yesterday & the other battery in the loader is a basic car battery that did recover. That’s in there temporarily until I can get some bigger battery restored. I’ve tried 3 truck batteries (with threaded posts). One seems to have a bad cell that barely bubbles….it reads 10.5v. I’ve cooked it at least 10 times & up to 200 Amps. The Amico welder exceeds its duty cycle often & it takes an hour for it to reboot itself. So I only go above 100 amps momentarily. The other 2 truck batteries will show 13+ volts, but weak on the load meter. I’m getting weak readings on the hydrometer on most of these batteries I’m trying to restore. So I rekin I’m going to drain & rinse them then add fresh acid/water. I get different info about the acid/water ratio….20% acid to 35% acid. I will NEVER do this trick with the battery in the vehicle. Acid usually bubbles out. As you mentioned many times, MAKE SURE THE WELDER IS OFF BEFORE DISCONNECTING THE LEADS. This welder is putting out current even if the a,ps are set at zero. I already blew up one battery. Now my Salvation Army jacket has holes…. And don’t turn the Amico welder off until the cooling fan stops running. And this: you guys quit asking the same questions that have already been answered….like can I use my AC welder? If that’s where you’re at, just go buy a new batt & watch boring World Cup.
