I want to take good care of my batteries. I would like to start keep records/notes on my batteries. My questions are on hydrometers. Which is better the ditigal ones or the glass ones? Which makes and models are better/best? Is there a make and model for a special brand of batteries? I have eight Trojan L16H-AC
batteries. I seek opinions and advise.
Thanks
Ray

    Hi Groser,

    Please start by reading this thread :

    The generous host of this site sells a number of high quality glass/float type Hydrometers, and they are not very expensive.
