Does Adding Water to the Batts Make You a Bad Person?
I keep reading how it is a virtue not to have to add water to the batts because you bought the right sort of battery charger etc etc.
I don't get it.
My 6s are on solar and the controller has them back in Float in the afternoon most days in summer. Even so, I have to add water every so often, at least once a month. Nothing seems wrong.
I am suspecting that those who never have to add water are losing capacity because they never get their batteries gassing enough, so they sulfate. If they gas enough they will need water.
So it could be those who feel so virtuous now are ruining their batteries before their time.
What think?
