Most of your small sealed lead acid batteries can be filled back up by removing the top cover and the rubber boots underneath. Then filling the cells with distilled water. I will show you how. You can fill many types of sealed lead acid batteries in this manner and repair many of them to like new condition.
You can fill many types of sealed lead acid batteries in this manner and repair many of them to like new condition. This of course depends in their physical condition. Alarm batteries, UPS batteries, scooters batteries, fisher price kids car betteries and most other small sealed 6 or 12 volt lead acid batteries can be restored in this way.
Get some distilled water to refill your batteries. Use ONLY distilled water. Never put tap water, rain water or anything else into lead acid batteries. Have a sharp pointed object such as a screw on hand. I use a 3 inch screw to pry off the lids. Get a small flat tip screwdriver for prying.
Refilling lead acid battery cells with distilled water Take your time. The cells will absorb water slowly as you work. Put some water in one cell and move to the next. Continue on with all six cells and then come back to the first. In this way you give the cells time to absorb the water into the battery plates.
Certainly, lead acid battery watering at the right time is half of the battle won, but it doesn’t take away from the fact that the task of watering the batteries still needs to be carried out.
Here are some key points to keep in mind: A lead-acid battery consists of lead plates and lead dioxide plates, with sulfuric acid acting as the electrolyte. When the battery is charged, the sulfuric acid breaks down into water and sulfur dioxide, and the lead plates become lead sulfate.
