[QUOTE="D2Cat, post: 1691019, member: 19322"] Steve, if your reference to repair function is a desulfate function, I wouldn't buy a maintainer without it. About three years ago I had an Interstate 12 volt auto battery that wouldn't start a 4 cyl Ford industrial engine. After having it on the regular charger for a couple of days it showed about 380 CCA in a 680 CCA battery. So I set it out in the bone pile to take to the re-cycler. I had a desulfator I had purchased off of the internet out of curiosity. It was an Infinitum brand. The Interstate had set outside for the winter and I figured was trash, but hooked up a charger with the desulfator connected. After a couple of days of charging I would check the CCA and log the numbers. The battery eventually showed about 600CCA. I used that battery for another year! After that experience I always get a maintainer with the desulfator feature. I put the charger on my Polarus Ranger most every time it's in the shed. I bought the Ranger used in 2012 and it still has the battery in it that was in it when I bought it. Your mileage may vary!! [/QUOTE]
