The battery on my 2003 Ford Ranger died, the last one i bought 4 or 5 years ago was a Panasonic "no maintenance"' battery, my thoughts on no maintenance means no need to top up with distilled water, & for the last 4 years i have'nt done so. and never a problem ...... I took it to a local Thai DIY Man who said he could charge it overnight , the next morning he said ,....." battery dry no have water inside,....."i pointed to the label displaying.... No maintenance & no visible pots to fill .. he just laughed, tearing off a colored plastic strip to reveal screw lids over the pots where water is supposed to be filled ....
Does anyone know what this no maintenance label is supposed to mean? ... i bought a new battery this morning i also asked this guy about the no maintenance label, he didnt know too, but the new battery has visible screw lids ..
