![]() The reason I did the back and forth thing three times is because I figured maybe it would de-sulfate the plates in the battery more and maybe I would have more of it's original capacity back. Since the repair mode goes to standby mode after it is done with the repair cycle, I would put in in regular charge mode since it would set in an ice cold detached garage all night after the repair function had finished. The battery was coming back even without the first repair mode session. I went back and forth from repair mode to charge mode 3 times. NOCO recommends charging the battery to full before using the repair function, so I charged it for a day ( 24-36 hrs. I couldn't help myself but to try it out on the old battery from the truck due to it's repair function to de-sulfate a battery. that I had on it ( found that out after a few weeks after buying and using it on the trailer battery) So I got the NOCO Genius 10. I figured it was time for a new charger anyway, and wanted a maintainer too so since a battery from my tilting trailer is too big for the battery tender jr. I thought it was really too late for that battery now. In fact, one of the cells froze while on the old charger. ![]() ![]() I looked online for ways to try to bring back a battery and decided to use the "old non computerized charger technique" I just so happened to have an old charger like that and they say to let it charge for a few weeks/month and sometimes it will bring them back by "cooking off" some of the sulfation so to speak. It has gone flat several times in the last two years since the truck just sits in the driveway since my sons passing, except to move it to snow blow or to mow grass from around it depending on the season of year that is. This battery just sits in the truck with a parasitic draw from the truck's electrical system somewhere. I have an older battery from my son's truck that went dead for the duration ( or so I thought ). I am writing this review to express my great pleasure with this battery charger. 25 of 27 people found the following review helpful.
