Lol it wasn't working the other day when I bought it had to fix it so bit of moding in side that light on the front should even be on because I bypassed sum stuff it's fizzing good so should be working I think :-) is 24v better because that's why I bought this one lol

24v will work faster but will put more current through and heat the solution up
I limit the current now with a 12v headlamp in series but if you have 24v it would have to be a 24v lamp or 2x 12v lamps in series

when i did my hubs i did them complet with abs sensors and bearings i did change the bearings for new but i didnt see any damage from the electrolisis
12hours should be enough the crud will just hose off with a little scrap with the stubborn bits

this is what I'm using but any cheap 12v charger will do as long as its NOT the auto charger type that monitors the charge and switches  off once charged
