Reuse Your Rechargeable Batteries

Did your UPS/Bike battery got expired ?? Don't throw it you can again reuse it

Warning:This method is only for Lead Acid batteries,not for Lithium ion battery

My desktop ups battery has expired and it was in dead condition.so I want to recycle the battery …this is a effective way and this method is used in battery servicing stations. it’s so simple and easy..U can do it in your home

STEP 1: things required

1) Water (more pure the water more effective outcome better u can use distilled water)

             you can use water that available in your home,but distilled water is more effective  

              (click here for How to make distilled water in home)                                                                          

2) Syringe (anything which pours water on battery hole)

3) Dead battery (be sure that the battery is not in popped condition)

  

STEP 1: Remove  the top cover of the battery as shown in fig

BEFORE WATER FILLING                                     

After Removing Top

STEP 2: Remove the cap and fill with water 

STEP 3: Now replace the cover ...now recharge the battery ...Recharge for larger time for eg if u are                  using 1 Amp charger then recharge the battery for at-least 6 hours.

Now check for the voltage

NOTE:1.recharge for at least 6 hours(1 amp charger)

             2.for higher efficiency  distilled water
             3.kindly note that this time the u cant get the original rated (12.6)voltage.The battery shown                   here which has been refilled for the third time,so the output voltage  reduced to 9.6v,but if                   doing the refill for the first time means you will get 12V max
