G'Day all,

heres a battery question. When charging in hot conditions and a lead acid battery loses some of its electrolyte in evaporation / boiling off etc. I refill the cells with pure distilled water, but wondering does the concentration of acid reduce?

Should I be adding acid at any point to rejuvenate the electrolyte or when it boils off , is it just the water content that evaporates, effectively concentrating the acid, and when you top up, does it comes back to normal levels of concentration?

Interested to hear views on this one
