battery water

[daymean]

is it ok 2 use battery water 2 top up your battery???????

[flatline]

define "battery water". And yes it is ok to use it to keep the plates covered, unless u have a sealed "no maintenance" battery

[VexXx Dogg]

if u mean battery water from an old battery - NO!
only use distilled water designed for topping up ur battery

[bleedingfreak]

Hahaha... Yeah DONT use the liquid from an old battery, it that's what you mean...

BTW: T&TEC *used* to sell distilled water for $1.00 a gallon... dunno if they still do. That's where all those companies that sell battery water get it from!

Can you say... RIP OFF?

[audiopipe]

instead of buying battery water ripp off use rain water

[VexXx Dogg]

^^ or club soda

[TK!]

rain water is horrible... esp if u catch it from a tin roof. rain water is chock full of impurities (eg - dust, acidic content)

most parts places sell bottles of distelled water.

[daymean]

[VexXx Dogg]

[daymean]

There is. It's usually on the outside of the battery though.

lol...Unkle, de young coconut story is sheit...doh be puttin dat in yuh battery, even under extreme circumstances..rain water too

when yuh doh have battery water around, club soda is de real flick (u'll jus hafta drink yuh scotch on d rocks after, thas all)...

but sully, what if yuh battery is black like mih Power Master? where's the max line?
and what happens if yuh go past de line?

[cheese pie]

u risk removeing the sulphuric acid that is the basis of ur battery working boi hook , that is if some spills out

also when ur engine heats up the liquid expands , little vents to the top of the covers (the lil holes nah ) and the sulphuric acid can come up through these

[bleedingfreak]

Just put enough water to cover the cells...

FYI - if you bought ur battery from Automotive Components (Power Master) and you have the warranty card, just go into any of their outlets and let them check your battery for you. They do that for free (once its their battery of course) They usually advise every three months.
And if you have a battery

I'm not too sure about Laughlin & De Gannes though (they sell Rocket batteries), though I will find out... (cause I have a Rocket!)
