Really ?
The only place I see "pulse mode" chargers for SLA batteries is in
the automobile snakeoil market, where d00des appearantly think it
will make their speakers louder...
For Li+ batteries in tiny gadgets, like mobiles, pulse mode charging
is used to reduce the size and heat from the charge regulator, but
it does nothing good for the battery.
A good temperature compensating switchmode charger is the way to go.
