Auto Battery fillers

[New Horizon]

Did a search and nothing showed up so thought I would ask: has anyone installed auto water battery fillers? Any pros or cons on the different types meaning, gravity water reservoirs versus motorized reservoirs. Any recommendations on brands or specific ones? If you google it, there are many types and prices which is why I am asking. I have five batteries so need a system to handle all five. Thanks

I looked at a Trojan battery system when I was looking for golf cart batteries for an inverter, but never installed.

Not sure of the age of your current batteries, but replacing with AGM when you are due would eliminate the need for the watering system, and Battery MX in general. Might be cheaper/easier in the long run.

I looked into these at one point but decided it's just another thing to break or rely on and it doesn't work. I just check the battery water monthly, but I only have two. These type of battery cap auto fillers look like they would be the most trouble free. But I think they are just another thing to go wrong.

AGM IS A GREAT WAY TO GO.

I installed a watering system on my 2x6v flooded golf cart bank. Not automatic but single point watering. Takes me no more than 5 min from when I press the hatch open switch to being done. I don’t have to open the battery box. Just connect to the quick coupler and use the squeeze pump from a distilled water bottle until the bulb is firm.
