Battery Watering Gadget

Has anyone had any experience with this battery maintenance product?

I just read about it from a post out at Quartzite, and it looks kind of handy?

Trojan battery company sells a similar product.  Haven't tried it, but it claims you can fill up to 6 batteries in 30 seconds.

I've been told of these also devices also.  I'm going back to Trojan 6v batteries soon, and would consider a watering device such as these. So hope someone is using one of these products and report back some day. I'm using AGM's at present, and am not happy with them compared to the Trojan 6v golf carts type they replaced. So maybe this summer I will revert back to them.

I have used a similar device, they aren't all they are advertised to be. With the slide out battery tray, it was much easier slide the tray out, take a solo cup with distilled water in it and fill the celks by hand.


Just one person's opinion.

Whoa.  Those are some unusually fancy options for adding water to your RV battery/batteries.  I'm old school and continue to use a 50cc syringe.  Without the needle. 

Here at work we have a golf course fleet of ~20 carts. The 2008 models came with the 'single point watering system'. After having several batteries go bad in the first two years, and finding the cells empty..     We went back to watering the cells individually. We have not ordered carts with that option again. Battery life went back to 4 years, which is our fleet exchange rate.

And on the subject of filling batteries..

Using the 'automatic' shut off filler like the picture above tended to overfill the cells, and cause residents to complain of leakage staining their garage floor.

Back to basics - use a funnel and bottle to fill. Doesn't take THAT long.
