I "topped off" my batteries yesterday w/ distilled water and put 1 on a maintainence "float" charger. When I went down this morning to unplug it, there was water on the side and under the battery, as well as around the cap-plates. My float charger is a slow 2 amp smart charger that switches off when fully charged, so I know I wasn't overcharging and boiling my battery. However there was no mark or directions as to "how full" the battery should be.
So, did I overfill my batteries? How can you tell what level the water should be? I haven't added any water in 3 years. And a few of the cells were lower than others.
