Single Point Water system for Battries

I just bought a Club Car Golf Cart and it came with a single point water system and I thought simple enough!! So I bought one for the coach batteries. Anybody have this system on their coach?? Good? Bad?

If it’s the Flow Rite system I’ve used it for years and it works a treat. I’d have switched to AGM batteries except that this thing works so well that I’m perfectly happy with cheap flooded batteries. One hint, if you have more than one battery it’ll work better if you connect the fill hose with a tee forming a “manifold” of sorts rather than filling in series like the instructions show. Also, sometimes folks are surprised that you have to buy the fill pump/bulb separately. I don’t understand either.

It's a great system, but:
I found the cost to be a pretty good percentage of an AGM battery, so I passed.

Most golf courses around here are switching to lithium batteries around here. They will give away the old flooded battery watering systems if you know who to ask. They sell the used carts that had flooded batteries without batteries to prevent liability problems.
