[RE-wrenches] NON Digital Hydrometer

[Dana]

I second this in the best tool ever category. The refractometer is extremely
accurate, uses only a drop of electrolyte, cleaner, safer, & less intrusive.
AND the darn thing will not break unless you drop it on the floor unlike how
many glass hydrometers over the years. I would have to add easier to teach
the clients who are interested in self battery service too.

Mine are $25 at my local plumbing wholesaler.

William,
Why bother, when a refractometer is cheaper, does a better job,
self-corrects for temperature, and won't be broken when you pull it off of
your truck?
Here's an example, quickly found on eBay, if you're not familiar with these:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Robinair-75240-Coolant-and-Battery-Refractometer-/13

&item=131591979786&vxp=mtr 
This has come up before on this list.

Friends:

 

We are maintaining more vented battery systems.  I am contemplating purchase
of a digital hydrometer.  Does anyone have any experience with one of these?

 

Thanks in advance,
