.. who (in Louisiana preferably) supplies this?

It used to be available all over the place, but no-one seems to have
any, any more.

Is this a plot to sell more batteries?

95% of the batteries no longer have openings to pour it into, which is a
VERY dangerous operation.

Adding acid to a dying battery is NOT a solution as all it does is eat
holes in the already eaten away plates that are left...give you a false
gravity reading without the real capacity to back it up.

The original acid load always disappears due to lead sulphate
crystallizing, making the acid unrecoverable...which also makes the lead
unrecoverable. Acid is not consumed, unrecoverably, for any other reason
unless you boil it out. It does not need "replacing" like water, that is
converted into hydrogen gas, is.
