Hello Jon,

I've noticed that you've made this point before and I'm wondering if the smart chargers with a "desulphation" stage are different to "ALL" chargers. This is what my C-Tek user's manual says:

"Step 1 Desulphation. Detects sulphated batteries. Pulsing current and voltage removes sulphate from the lead plates of the battery restoring the battery capacity."

Here are the waveforms:



Is the C-tek refreshing the parts other chargers cannot reach?
