k me crookid. I get T-105's for $60, maybe some pay $75. It is worth
it to spend more than a third more battery capacity or budget on
freaking caps, even if they happen to work perfectly (not according to
their own info), to avoid a few breif insepctions, top-ups & maybe
avoid carefully adjusting charging rate?
I found more interesting information. It seems that when you need the caps
the MOST, you're supposed to remove them to save them??!!

"Thanks for the Battery Equalization & Hydrocaps post
of Wed, 2 Jun 2004
I was interested so I did some Internet research on
hydrocaps. All of the venders for Hydrocaps
(Hydro-Caps)that I found recommend that the caps be
removed during high levels of charging and battery
equalizing. High levels of charging/battery gassing
will result in the catylator in the cap being damaged
or prematurely worn out.
Limited use -- If I was recharging my golf cart
battery bank at 100+ amps, I would have to remove the
hydrocaps to prevent damaging them.
Since, the caps are designed for low charging rates,
wouldn't this severely limit their use."
I guess if you START THE 100A ALTERNATOR ON THE DIESEL on a dead house
battery, you may RUIN them?....WTF???
