Default Battery Water (revisited)

I found it at an old style auto supply distributor. The old kind with
belts of all kinds hanging on the walls, 2" of dust on everything and
Mathusala working on a big chaw of tobakee behind the counter. :-)

I did find them on the web though at several places. Here is one:

tempted fate with:


I built a retainer right next to the battery boxes for one of those
black plastic battery fillers. For you younger guys that is an artifact
once found in those extinct institutions called "Full service gas
stations". It holds two quarts of distilled water and you just pop a
cap, stick it in and it tops off the cell to the right level.


Cripes, where'd you find that? I'm tired of spilling water from those
little squeeze bulb thingys that hold about an ounce and drip half of
it onto the top of the battery.

To reply, lose the capitals and do the obvious.

Take a look at cpRepeater, an NMEA data integrator, repeater, and
