Battery Compartment with Acid Spills
My RV has a compartment with 6 6V house batteries (not a slide out).
It has a watering system which had utilized a one gallon container and a lever for on/off to keep batteries topped off.
Well......
Old batteries looked to be leaking, bought new batteries, swapped them out and reinstalled the existing watering system onto them. Prior to actually swapping, I scraped, put baking soda in, rinsed, primed and painted the area. Put the new batteries in.
Well......
I began to see water seepage along the side of the batteries. Come to the conclusion the system itself was leaking, purchased a flow rite system with the ball syphon devise which sucks water in from a bottle and tops off the batteries. Ideally, I loved the self system. Has anyone else had this issue? Has anyone used the Flow Rite system and hooked it up to their existing water bottle as a drip system? Tell me your experience and thoughts.
Thank you,
