One can also try the Maha Powerex MH-C401FS.
Designed back in the day when cell resistance was higher than now, and it had special pulse / negative pulse charging algo's.
Use the FAST position, not slow (cell capacities were much lower and it is easier to miss the termination with too low of a current level). Cells will get HOT. Keep an eye on them, and don't charge them on your couch.
This used to be the "goto" charger decades ago well before the C9000, and I normally don't recommend it for daily use. But I'll run my cell through them once in a blue moon. Followed by a discharge and recharge in a more modern charger.
That seemed to help revive some older cells, but not near new capacity. Still, it was an interesting result when the normal charger cycling didn't seem to improve any.
It would make a great test subject to see the benefit from using it once in a awhile. Again - I wouldn't use for daily use these days, but a good tool for any battery-geek toolbox.
