Right, we operate (2) auto water systems manually. I have been told, IF, the valve sticks open it can flush all the electrolyte out and the result is A – a mess to be reckoned with and B – a cell full of water or severely diluted electrolyte.

Warehouse operators told me that they operate their so-called automatic watering systems manually. I use an RL Flo-Master 1.5-Gallon Polyethylene-Tank Sprayer from Home Depot for $11. It works great.

We have a regular route of clients that want us to perform regular battery checks for SG and VPC and water afterwards, generator oil check and operation, control settings [older Trace and Xantrex equip. w/o non-volatile memories] etc. What has worked for you, who supplies it, would you buy it again? What would you do differently?
