Not 100% sure if also works at 6v. They do charge 6 v. But I might desulfate batts individually . A four 400lb battery bank is going to absorb pulses more than one The microprocessor is better suited to identify what's happening in single battery IMHO.

I tried the Genius 10 repair mode on a 12 volt battery that wouldn't hold a charge. This was over a year ago and to my surprise, got me another good year of use with the old 9 year old battery. I thought the battery had finally gave out this year so I went ahead and replaced.
Well,,, the brand new battery ended up running down within a few days. I found after checking, that the glove box light switch had intermittent problems and was occasionally allowing the light to stay on when the Jeep was parked. Pulled the bulb and haven't had an issue since. Of course I'll never know now for sure but I have a feeling that old battery may have hung in there for a few more months, maybe even years.
Bottom line, I do know that there are devices that can help extend the life of lead acid batteries. Note, I said devices, I doubt that stuff listed in the OP's link would do much of anything.
Linear Mode
