PulseTech / Xtreme Charge History

• Late 1980’s – Carl Gali - Retired Texas Instruments Engineer begins work on development of more efficient battery charger - Birth of Pulse Technology. Multiple patents issued.

• 1990-1995 – Testing -Stennis Space Center, NASA, Army Research Laboratory, USAF MEEP Program. First US Military blanket PO and entry into commercial markets.

• 1995-current – Subsequent product and technology evaluations – SAE, VSE Corporation, Oakland University, Ohio State University. Distribution channels established.

• 1995-1998 – Solargizer and PowerPulse developed for commercial markets.• 1999-2005 – SolarPulse line replaces Solargizers. Commercial and military

sales growth.• 2006 – Xtreme Charge is developed. Re-definition of company, products and

outside investment in commercialization of proven technology into a new commercial product line.

Lead Plates and Electrolyte

64% H2O and 36% SO4

Specific Gravity 1.275 Electro-Chemical

reaction Sulfation: a natural

and necessary byproduct to achieve energy transfer

Charging reverses a portion of the accumulation back to active electrolyte

Battery Basics

Pulsetech Products Corporation – Consumer Products Group

Why Use PulseTech Products?

1. 80% of battery failure is caused by sulfation buildup

2. Not all sulfate deposits are released back into electrolyte by standard charging processes

3. Residual deposits create a variety of negative impacts on Battery Performance:

• Inability to discharge power

• Inability to recharge

• Shortened battery life

PulseTech products reverse sulfation

damage in marginal batteries, inhibits future sulfation damage and …

extend battery life 5X!

"In 2010, the Cammack Village Police department began incorporating PulseTech solar chargers on the purchase of new and existing patrol vehicles and to date we have had great success with these products."Peter PowellChief /K9 HandlerCammack Village Police Little Rock, AR

"My old 2v cells are really starting to wake up, I've noticed the white sulfation flaking off and going away from the plates. Ampacity is starting to really come up, It's been a long time since they were this hot....I'm glad I found your product and I'm impressed how well they really work, they are worth far more than the market will bear."David Hobbs

"I'm still running my deep cycle AC Delco batteries in my boat that I bought in 1999. I take them out each Winter and alternately charge them (2) monthly with a pulse tech trickle charger. You don't have to sell me on the technology!"Douglas Sutton

We would definitely recommend the PulseTech charging systems to any company or individual who had vehicles which are not operated on a daily basis, and have had issues with discharged batteries not capable of starting their equipment when required."Michael SchochTruck SalesPeterbilt of Las Vegas

"I have my boat parked on some property that is off grid and I attached the 2 Watt SolarPulse to keep the battery in peak condition. The boat is set back in the trees so I pulled the panel out in the open to collect the most amount of sun. I drove right over the panel and pressed it into the soft ground leaving a nice bend in it. I put it back in the sun and looked over and sure enough the LED light was glowing bright, it still works! I remembered a discussion about the construction of the panel and how it was not glass like other brands but I never would have expected it to withstand that kind of abuse. Great job PulseTech!!!"Ray Pfaff

These batteries were originally installed in April 1992. This makes these batteries 17 years old! 2 PowerPulse modules have saved me over $2,000.00 in batteries and the hassle of changing them out. These products definitely do what they say they can and then some!"Dave Wicke- CaptainUniflite 34 S/F "Shangri-la"Huntington Harbour, CA

"I am happy to inform you that the Xtreme Charge has officially been tested and recommended by the Motorcycle Riders Club of America! In fact the final results were a 100% approval rating and out of the 11 testing criteria the Xtreme Charge scored a perfect 10 out of 10 in the three of the eleven testing criteria."Ross TurnerMinnetonka, MNMotorcycle Riders Club of America

"The arrival of the charger was opportune: we are rebuilding a motorcycle which had a 30-year old battery we RECHARGED using the Xtreme Charger, just to see if it would come back!! The next morning, my husband left his ignition switch on his truck on, draining the battery. Three hours on the charger and it started. Better than buying new batteries each year."Melinda Derfler

"Works as advertised! My Harley battery, despite being 6 years old, was on its last legs or so I thought. After a few weeks on your charger, new life has been breathed into it and now it turns over the engine like a brand new battery. Plus it's holding a charge better than ever. You guys are building a great product."Wade RamseyMontgomery, AL

"I own a motorcycle training company with a fleet of over 50 motorcycles. I tried it on roughly 3 year old battery. I tried multiple times to charge this battery with my other charger and it just wouldn't charge. I hooked it up to your charger and the next day it showed a full charge. I was a little skeptical so I put it in one of my bikes and it started immediately. It has been 3 weeks now and the battery is still holding a charge. I love this charger now! It is going to save me a fortune in battery cost. I whole-heartedly recommend this product."David TolbertMotorcycle Training AcademyColorado Springs, CO

"The Pulse Charger works great! It paid for itself in only a month and a half. I have recovered six very expensive batteries already. They were going to be thrown away and now I use them every day."Gaylen YamasakiYamasaki FarmsTracy, CA

"Fishing is a full-time job for me. Since installing a PulseTech battery maintenance system on my boat batteries, they hold a charge much longer. This is very important to me since my boat is essentially my office."Terry "Tackle" TumaFishing Professional & Freelance WriterMinneapolis, MN

"I have a 40-foot, performance cruising sailboat with two large 12-volt batteries. These batteries would only hold a charge for about 24 hours. I would go out cruising and they would be drained by the time I got back at the end of the day. Then I installed a 12-Volt PowerPulse on each. My batteries improved quickly. Now, even after living on the boat, the batteries will last about a week before I have to recharge. I am very excited."Paul ZimmermanSanta Rosa, CA

"I have at least ten to twelve product evaluations going on with my customers all the time. Not once has a PulseTech product ever failed or not improved a battery."Steve DoonBatteries PlusColumbus, OH
