PulseTech's SC-2 two-station HD recovery charger is designed to recover, charge, maintain, and desulfate as many as two 12-volt lead-acid batteries.

The SC-2 is able to recover the majority of spent batteries so fleets don't have to purchase new batteries.The portable charger works with VRLA, AGM, gel and flooded cell battery types. The dual recovery charging stations operate in isolation, allowing any combination of battery brands or types to be recharged simultaneously, according to the company.

The SC-2 has two independent channels that profile the condition of each battery and then automatically cycle through a recovery and charge process that applies the correct charge (variable up to 6A). PulseTech's charger uses the optimized high frequency, patented Pulse Technology waveform to each battery. This advanced technology removes sulfate crystals from the battery plates, increasing the battery's ability to accept, store and release energy, extending battery life up to five times.

Five LED indicators next to each cable connection show the status of each battery channel. The SC-2 has one switch control and a progressive, easy-to-understand LED information display (battery disconnected, bad battery, recovery charge, pulse charge, charge complete). There are no additional dials to set and no possibility of overcharging or overheating the batteries.

The flexible, replaceable cables fit in the case for easy storage. The SC-2 carries a one-year warranty and retails for $895.
