Nothing against the product you are selling, but I would tend to with
something has more of a published charging/maintaining curve.  That
advertisement looks a lot like snake oil to me.  I've yet to see any
proof (nor has Bob N of aeroelectric.com) that these desulphaters do
anything.  I hope someone proves him wrong.  Until then, I personally
like the Battery Tender at http://www.batterytender.com , which has a
published charging graph.

It charges at 1.25 amps until the battery reaches 14.4 volts (bulk
charge), then maintains 14.4 volts until the current goes under 0.1A
(absorption).  Then it switches over to float/maintenance mode and drops
the voltage down to 13.2 volts and holds the current under 0.1A.  This
will charge and maintain any battery without risk of
overcharging/overheating.  I think Brent Regan suggested just the other day of not holding a
battery at anything over 13.8V, and I concur.  This little smart charger
certainly meets the bill.
