        Nah, even easier. Just take a look at a motorcycle, snowmobile, or
jetski, or whatever else uses a motorcycle sized battery. They (almost) all
have caps, to refille the levels.
        Replacement motorcycle batteries come with the acid in a seperate
bottle, that you have to pour into the cells after you buy it. And there is
_always_some acid left over, once you put the proper amounts in...
