["Tom Reed" <treed@xxxxxxx>]

Hello John,

I could not find Solargizers on the NAPA site either I've just seen them on
the shelf there. 

You can see a picture here http://www.global-merchants.com/home/solargzr.htm
I have a Item #SBM-24V $139.95 (24 Volts model)

Now you've done it Tom, made me feel inadequate 'cause I don't have a
desulfator. I looked at the NAPA website and they don't tell you much. 
Which model is  your unit?
