Anybody use one of these systems? http://www.flow-rite.com/marine/ I like the idea of not having to pop off all the tops on a sunny day and try to see down in the battery if I'm low. They say that they carry them at BPS, but I can't find it. Anybody know what it cost? ------------------

This looks like a slick fix. Only I went 1 better........ I bought gel cells. More and longer power. I will never go back for my trolling batteries.

Hey CutThroat, now THAT is slick! How come you and me didn't think of that so we could get rich instead of that other guy?  ------------------

Sorry, the link above doesn't work correctly. Just go to www.basspro.com and use the quick search for qwik fill and then click marine accesories. This looks like a pretty neat system I may have to give it a try.

That looks like it would make life easy when you have 4 batteries stuffed under the deck lid. Oh what the heck it's only another $120 bucks less the filler bulb honey. (SMACK) that was her hitting me in the head bringing me back to reality. "Oh that hole in the middle of the lake that I pour all my money into is going to get me in alot of trouble......" I am sooooooooo ready to go fishing.

Thanks everybody for your opinions, I think I'll give them a try. I'll let you know how it works. It's a pain to open, check, and then try to top-off batteries without spilling. I end up just putting it off. This seems just so easy to use. ------------------

Got 'em at the store next to the battery chargers in the marine dept. Haven't sold many, but they look like a good idea.

They just came out a little over a month ago. I'm going to be replacing my TM batteries this week and think I'm gonna give it a whirl. ------------------  [This message has been edited by TX Champ (edited 01-26-2004).]
