I was having some cable's made today and ask the battery distirbuter about that system and he said they were all recalled because they were leaking. When I saw it I thought it was a pretty good idea. Anyone seen them lately - know who makes them? Jerry Crawford Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Several people have seen mine and gone out and bought a system for the themselves. Larry 2007 Lazy Daze, 27 MB, Banks Kit, 05 Jeep Wrangler,lifted and chipped toad.

We've had one on the last two Class A's and it was the first thing I bought.

I received it yesterday and haven't had a chance to hook it up yet. Do search on Flow Rite Qwik Fill on the Internet and you will find several places that sell them. neok 2009 GMC 25000HD Short Bed 6.0 Gas Engine Crew Cab SLT 4x4 2008 Bigfoot 15C9.5FS Torklifts, Fastguns, Superhitch & SuperTruss kerry4951 • View posts East Central Pennsylvania Senior Member Joined: 12/16/2009 View Profile Offline Posted: 03/04/10 05:14pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Your battery distrubutor probably doesnt sell them, maybe thats why he said that. I used one for about 7 years in my motorhome ((4) 6 volt coach batteries). It did not leak, ever, and I highly recommend a system to anyone.

Both are made by the Flow-Rite Co. Google them for info. I have the Qwik-Fill system for my two 12 volt batteries. Fills them both to the proper level with the squeeze of a single bulb. One of the best things that I have bought for the camper. No more pulling the batteries out and lifting caps to check the levels. Money well spent. I highly recommend it. -Mark.

Current Apex9.5 has AGMs so not needed. Only thing is to make sure you use a light touch when squeezing the bulb as a gorilla grip WILL overpower the valves at the caps, resulting in over-filling the battery. Use light pressure until you feel resistance to water flow and then stop.
