			=====Battery Mossing=====
			Battery mossing<ref>[http://doyleshamrock.com/product-category/products/battery-parts/battery-element-protectors/] Battery Mossing Explained</ref> is the accumulation of debris on the top edges of the negative plates. Over time, small particles in the electrolyte precipitate, resulting in a layer of sediment being deposited. When this buildup becomes thick enough, it causes a short circuit which results in a defective battery. To help prevent this, some battery manufacturers install a thin plastic shield (battery element protector) on top of the plates.

			Using pulses to remove sulfate is called ''pulse conditioning''. These can be simply current pulses or there can be a frequency component as described by Alastair. Certain patents may prevent all desulfators from using the same method.

 ==Overview==
 Lead–acid batteries, invented in 1859 by French physicist Gaston Planté, are the oldest type of rechargeable battery. Despite having a very low energy-to-weight ratio and a low energy-to-volume ratio, their ability to supply high surge currents means that the cells maintain a relatively large power-to-weight ratio. These features, along with their low cost, make them attractive for use in motor vehicles to provide the high current required by automobile starter motors.
