Hello Jon,

Thank you for your explanation. I even understand it which is remarkable for someone who never got to grips with chemistry! Inevitably it has led to another question for you.

Once the sulphation ceases to be "fresh" and begins the strong molecular bonding you refer to, is that when the capacity of the battery reduces with the result that the "fully charged" LED on a simpler charger illuminates prematurely?

Simon
