An
Important Message From Walt Barrett about The Battery Chem
Forklift Battery Reconditioning Program
Some of our dealers have said that they could not get
enough used automotive batteries to recondition. Well,
we have a solution to that problem: Electric Forklift
Batteries; there are thousands of them in every state.
Last year, we had a client come to us with three very
large electric forklift batteries that were in terrible
condition and also very old. They had sat in a very cold
warehouse for three years.
They
were nearly dried out inside but still read 36 volts
each. The cells would not pass a load test, though. We
decided to recondition them anyway as a test and follow
up by checking periodically with the owner. We started
by adding the missing water from the cells and then we
added one cup of Battery Chem per cell.
After that we gave them a full charging session and put
them into service. I was very doubtful myself as to the
outcome, but to my surprise they have been working
perfectly now for over a year. The owner of these
batteries is very happy with us and our product because
we have saved him a total of nearly $20,000 in
replacement costs for the three batteries.
The
point I want to make here is that there are thousands of
electric forklifts all over the USA in warehouses and
most of them are terribly neglected. Because of this we
have expanded our company and also have a new forklift
service training film and manual for our regular and new
dealers and they describe the entire forklift battery
reconditioning process. As usual, if you contact us we
will train you 100% free and sell you Battery Chem as
needed. We will also show you how easy it is to get
these new forklift clients and where to find them. We
have a great new free program lined up for you. Our
dealers are charging $500 per battery to recondition
them and offer an additional service contract for $100 a
service call. Believe me, at easily $7,000 replacement
cost these companies should be glad to see you. If you
work hard and do the marketing program you can make from
$500 to $5,000 a week.
We
did the battery shown in the training film in under
fifteen minutes (click picture to watch the video). You
do them on site and use their charger. If you are

TESTIMONIALS
I JUST PLACED MY SECOND ORDER WITH CHINA DEPOT, FOR FOUR GALLONS OF DESULPHATOR. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE PRODUCT. IT REALLY WORKS. SOME OF THE BATTERIES WE RECONDITION COME OUT AS GOOD AS NEW, AND SOME EVEN HAVE HIGHER CRANKING AMPS, THAN THE ORIGINAL LABEL WHEN FINISHED.
WE ARE FINDING A GREAT MARKET FOR THESE BATTERIES AND CONTINUOUSLY BUILDING OUR BUSINESS AND INCOME. WE ARE ALREADY GETTING REPEAT MULTIPLE ORDERS AFTER OUR FIRST MONTH IN OPERATION.
THE TECH SUPPORT I HAVE RECEIVED FROM WALT THE OWNER IS GREAT. HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AVAILABLE TO ME FOR DISCUSSION. I RECOMMEND THIS BUSINESS IN A BOX TO ANYONE WHO WANTS A BUSINESS AND DOES NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THE HIGH PRICED SYSTEMS, WHICH CAN RUN WELL OVER $10,000 DOLLARS.
I LOOK FORWARD TO LONG TIME DEALINGS WITH CHINA DEPOT, THEY ARE NICE FAIR PEOPLE WHO DEAL HONESTLY
AND HELP YOU ALONG THE WAY.

Hi Walt,
I am having real good luck bringing batteries back into service. I am probably bringing back about 65% of the batteries I am trying. I am doing a lot of experimenting at this point and have learned a lot from it. I am sure on this next batch of chemical my percentage will come up. My wife and I sell the reconditioned batteries through our Discount store and they are selling very well. I am putting in my second order and am very pleased with the way things are going. Thank you Walt and John for all your Help and I look forward to doing business with China Depot in the future.
Thanks,
Tim in Oregon.

Hi Walt and John,
I wanted to update you on our success reconditioning batteries here in the Heartland. The first 5 months in business we have sold 250 reconditioned batteries using the
Battery Chem conditioning treatment! I have been an auto mechanic and
motor-sports enthusiast since a kid, and I can't remember ever hearing of rebuild batteries until I found China Depot online and began learning. Its
amazing when you tell people that their batteries can be reconditioned. I find that a great majority of customers have no idea about this, and when you tell them they can save 50-75% off of new price, its a done deal!
We just received a grant from the Nebraska recycling association for a enclosed trailer that will allow us to carry more product and to recycle batteries that may otherwise have not been disposed of properly. Our business is mobile only and we work in a two car garage, which keeps our overhead down and gives
convenience to our customers.
Thank you for mentoring us into battery reconditioning and being there when questions need answered.

*************************************************
I'm just sending you an Email to let you know how we are getting on with your amazing product!
I have spent the weekend doing some experimenting, and have successfully reconditioned 4 batteries, a 100% success rate!
2 of these batteries, I was certain sure would not recondition as follows:
1) A ATV Motorbike battery (20Ah) which was replaced by us in April last year (2010) this battery has been left outside our workshop since then, and has been subjected to harsh winter cold of up to minus 10 degrees centigrade
This battery was completely dead, I put it on a equalizer charger for 1/2 an hour then did the tests as per your Youtube video, things did not look too good to be honest!
I put in a heaped teaspoon worth of Battery Chem in each cell and charged it up using the equalizer charger, left to cool for 24 hours then did the tests again, tested out perfect!
Today I was doing some work at the customers address who owns the ATV this battery came off, after a short conversation with the customer, we swapped the battery with the one I reconditioned, and hell did it turn over and start immediately, better than the battery that was on it!!!
Customer does not believe that battery was on his bike before the current one :)
2) A van belonging to our local petrol station, this van has been parked on their forecourt for 3 years!, they were using it for storage!, battery would only hold charge for about 24 hours, I checked for discharge through the vehicles wiring but found a minimal drain of 0.02A, which I presume would be for the radio and clock!
I reconditioned the battery using Battery Chem, It is now better than brand new, as we had sourced a new battery from our motor factors, and compared the 2 on our discharge tester, the reconditioned battery was reading more CCA than the brand new one!!!!!!
So, as you may have guessed, I'm over the moon with your product, nothing like this exists in the UK, people who I've talked to in the trade think I’m crazy, however I've taken old batteries off these people to recondition to convince them, one trade customer has even marked a battery with a knife to make sure I return the battery he gave me, to make sure I return it, and not a better one
I think I've hit the jackpot with this business and I’m really excited for the future, thanks to your Website and staff
Kindest Regards

Hi John,
I am very happy with your Battery Chem electrolyte conditioning treatment and highly recommend it to others who are looking to add more life and power to their existing batteries that they otherwise thought dead. We are saving our customers 50-75% off new prices and also saving emissions from producing new batteries. Our customers have been pleased with the product they receive and we continue to build our base of customers as some companies have been testing our product over the past year and have been buying more! We have also added to our tools with test equipment and chargers.
Our most recent customer is a large industrial warehouse that uses electric pallet jacks. Recently in for service, they were told the jack needed a new 24 volt battery @ $2,000. They gave us a call, we picked up
their pallet jack and returned it 5 days later and saved them $1600 by reconditioning the battery. 2 months later the pallet jack operator has reported that the battery runs better and longer than when it was new!
I would like to thank you and Walt for mentoring us while we continue to grow Battery Repair Express.com!
Sincerely,
Dustin Reeh
********************************************
Walt,
I finally got around to getting that battery. This battery would not hold a charge for 5 seconds prior to this. I would let it charge on the car for an hour and it wouldn't even be able to crank it over right after you turned off the car. I put the Battery Chem you sent me in and charged it overnight. It has now been turning a 5.7 litre engine over in my Camaro now for a week and half and is working great.
I am going to look into the fork lift batteries some more. I am going to find companies that have a lot of electric fork lifts and find out what servicing they currently have, I guess if any. Do you have any tips on what to ask or how to position things with them?
Thanks,
Greg

Hi my name is Manny and I own a shipping company. In my warehouse, I use 2 forklifts and 1 power jack daily. I was having lots of problems with my forklift batteries, they weren’t charging and it got to the point that they wouldn’t even take a charge. I called a company to come and repair them. I knew I didn’t want to buy new ones because it would be too expensive. The repair man came by and tested the batteries and said they were junk, there was nothing he or anyone could do to fix them! He suggested I put my name on a waiting list for used batteries. Which even used would run me about $5200 a piece!
After contemplating my choices, I decided to go online and research other options. This is when I came across Walter Barrett’s advertisement for Battery Chem on a website. It could not hurt to call. Upon speaking to Walter Barrett and explaining the problems I was having, he told me he knew exactly what was wrong and that he would sell me the Battery Chem products to fix the batteries myself. I preferred and insisted that he do the repairs himself, since I had no experience in repairing these types of batteries.
I drove the batteries down to Walter and within a week, I received a phone call from him saying that the batteries were ready and that they were repaired with Battery Chem. I immediately installed the batteries and they ran better than they had ever run.
It’s been 2 years since the repair, and let me tell you, the batteries are still running like new. I won’t even mention the name because I don’t want to embarrass the first repair man who wanted to charge me $5200 a piece for used batteries. But I will say this I’ve never gotten a better bargain in my 20 years in business!
Thank you again,
Manuel

SUGGESTIONS
We suggest that you charge $24.00 minimum with an
exchange battery in trade for your rebuilt batteries. Your warrantee should be
twelve months prorated at one twelfth per month ($2.00) in this example.
Remember that the most successful companies today are the ones who give
excellent customer service. Be fair with your customers and don't be afraid to
replace the product or give them their money back. It always pays in the long
run.
We sell all of our scrap batteries by the truckload.
Most of the big battery companies will buy them back and recycle them. They use
the lead, the plastic, and the acid. Nothing is wasted. They will buy them by
the trailer load. They will usually pick up if you have a full trailer load.

Here is a brief summary of
what to do... The first thing that you must realize is that
not all
batteries can be rejuvenated. They must undergo a few simple tests to determine
their present condition.
You will need some simple equipment and supplies in
order to perform the required tests and to recondition the batteries:
1.
A DC voltmeter.
2.
An automotive battery load
tester. It comes with full instructions from the manufacturer.
3.
A battery Hydrometer.
4.
A small electric drill.
5.
A good quality battery charger.
6.
A pair of homemade wire probes to
clip to the test leads on your voltmeter. These are used to test
each cell in the battery. They should be about eight
inches long and can be made from brass brazing rod. This retards
corrosion of the probes.
7.
A plastic funnel to add the
chemicals into each cell.
8.
A supply of the "Battery
Chem" battery treatment chemical to dissolve
the buildup of sulfates in the bottom of the battery.
9.
A stop drill bit to drill holes
in the top of sealed batteries.
10.
A supply of plastic plugs to seal the holes
in the top of the batteries after repairs are completed. A good quality face shield to protect you eyes
and face.
NEVER WORK ON BATTERIES NEAR AN OPEN FLAME OR WHILE SMOKING. THE
GAS FROM THE BATTERY CAN EXPLODE! ALSO, THE BATTERY ACID CAN BURN YOUR SKIN
AND CLOTHING.
Connecting cables to charge more than one battery
at a time in parallel or in series if you have a series charger. Do not
overload your charger.
This should cover your equipment and supply needs.
Now we will explain how to evaluate the battery for
rebuilding or for scrap.
1.
Place the battery on your test bench. Connect
your load tester to the positive and negative terminals.
The positive
terminal is always the larger terminal and should have a + sign on it or
next to it.
DO NOT HOOK UP BACKWARDS AS YOU COULD DAMAGE THE LOAD TESTER.
ALWAYS PUT THE POSITIVE LEAD ON FIRST AND REMOVE IT LAST TO AVOID DANGEROUS
SPARKS.
2.
Read the voltage shown on the load test meter. If
the voltage is less than 12 volts chances are that the battery cannot be rebuilt. In the case of a six-volt battery it should read six volts. A
battery that reads a volt less might bear further investigating. While the
load tester is still hooked up you should perform a
load test. Pressing the
button on the tester and watching the needle does the test. Hold the button
down for ten or fifteen seconds. If the needle drops like a rock and stays
on zero the battery is probably junk.
If the needle gradually climbs up to
the yellow or green on the load test dial there is a good
chance the battery
can be rebuilt. Remember that each cell if it is working should read two volts. If the meter only reads ten volts total then you must have a dead
cell. We don’t fix dead cells because we don’t take batteries apart.
3.
One more set of tests that you can perform just
to be sure is the cell test. We do two of them. One with a voltmeter and one
with the battery hydrometer. If the battery has caps, pry them off. If it is
sealed, drill the holes in the top of each cell with a stop drill so you won't hit the plates and damage them. Make sure all the cells have water
covering the top of the plates. This could be the problem to start with.
4.
Take the hydrometer and draw up the acid from the
first cell. The scale that is marked on the hydrometer will tell you the
condition of that cell. Make a note of the reading of that cell. Green is
good, White is questionable and red is dead and probably will not come back
with the treatment. Notice the color of the electrolyte while you are
drawing the electrolyte from the cell. Draw it in and out several times so
that you will disturb it and mix it up. This will give you a more accurate
reading and also if the color is cloudy brown or black it means that the
cell is in bad shape.
5.
The voltmeter test is another very reliable test.
Take the voltmeter and set in on the range that best reads out for twelve
volts or six volts as the case may be. Clip the test leads onto each of the
homemade brass probes.
a.
Place the positive test lead on the positive
terminal of the battery.
b.
Stick the negative probe into the first cell next
to the positive terminal. It should read approximately
two volts. If it does
not, record the voltage. Lower than two volts indicates a weak or bad cell.
c.
Stick the negative probe into the second cell and
stick the positive probe into the first cell that you
just tested. Again, it
should read approximately two volts. Record the voltage.
d.
Follow this procedure right down the line to the
last cell.
REMEMBER THAT THERE IS ONLY
A ZERO READING FROM THE LAST CELL TO
THE NEGATIVE POST. Otherwise the total
would be fourteen volts and not
twelve. You have now pinpointed the low or dead cells in the
battery.
e.
If you consider the tests to indicate a marginal
battery that might come back even though the test
indicate it is junk you
can perform the following procedure. Make sure all of the cells have water
above the plates by at least one quarter of an inch. Add one tablespoon of
the chemical reviver to
each cell. Place the battery on the charger for one
hour at a high rate of charge. Do not boil out the
cells. After an hour you
can then retest the low cells that you recorded. If they are reading two
volts each you may then charge the battery at a low rate for at least
twenty-four hours. It is more efficient
to charge several batteries at one
time on a low charge-using hook up cables. These may be
obtained at an
automotive supply store.
f.
If the battery you are testing passes all of the
tests you may then place it on the charger for a long
slow charge. It is
important to note that most of the batteries on the market today have lead calcium
plates in them and when they get discharged down to a very low
voltage they require a long slow recharge.
YOU MUST ADD ONE TABLESPOON OF OUR
"BATTERY CHEM" BATTERY TREATMENT CHEMICAL PURIFIER INTO EACH CELL TO DISSOLVE THE SULFATES THAT ARE BUILT UP
ON THE PLATES.
g.
After the battery has been on the low charger for
twenty- four hours you should load test it and check the specific gravity of
each cell with the hydrometer. All of the cells have to be in the green
scale and the battery should load test no lower than the yellow scale on the
load tester for a period of ten seconds. Follow the instructions furnished
with your particular load tester.
h.
The above procedures may seem complicated but
they are not. You will learn them very quickly by experience. Do not be
afraid to experiment with marginal batteries. Remember that you can load
test them to be sure they are reliable and also, that you are giving your
customer a twelve-month prorated warrantee on the unit.
NEVER ARGUE WITH A
CUSTOMER. GIVE HIM ANOTHER BATTERY OR GIVE HIM HIS MONEY BACK.
Good customer
service is the ONLY way to succeed in the
long run; word gets around
fast.
i.
It is a good idea to save the electrolyte from
the batteries that you junk. You may want to add some from time to time.
This would be used in the case where you have a perfectly good battery but through
someone's carelessness they wore a hole in it and you want to
repair the hole and refill that cell.
NEVER ADD ACID TO A BATTERY JUST TO SERVICE
IT. YOU MIGHT BLOW IT UP! The best way to repair a hole in a battery is to
use some fiberglass cloth and a two part epoxy resin repair kit. Just mix up
the resin as per instructions and use it to glue several layers of the patch
cloth over the hole. It is very important that you clean off the area around
the hole with solvent that won't leave a residue (Denatured alcohol) and
scratch up the case so the epoxy will stick better. Many a good battery has
been saved with this procedure. Most of this is just common sense and always clean the rebuilt batteries with a mild solution of baking soda and water to
neutralize the acid, and also clean up the terminals so that every battery
looks as good as new.
