Has anyone else reconditioned a battery with Epsom salt and distilled water
Were your results positive or negative?

Nope
Try the easy riders Barstow battery fix?
When the electra-glide came into play, battery tech was weak.
Dead electric legs were abundant.
We would drain the acid into a clean container, rinse out the trash from the battery case, refill thru a pair of stockings to filter the gunk.
This usually revived enough power flow to git ya going for a while.

Or
Go buy some batteries...
Lasts a LOT longer.

Had an old timer tell me about aspirin I. A battery to Revive it I. Only done it once on a tractor battery that froze and it worked great I put 1/4 tab in each cell topped off with distilled water let it sit over night and put the slow charge to it
