Are you saying that the batteries do not have a fill line? Sometimes

No - just fill to the bottom of the filler tube - leave the slots in
the tube open, so that gases generated during charging can escape.

Thanks again for the replies,

My batteries do have the filler tube and the slots

Peter's reply makes a lot of sense with what I see on this end.

Thanks all,

Mike.
