Batteries and Acid

Moorey:

The new battery for the NC31 arrived today from a UK supplier, unfilled and with the acid pack. Anyone else received one like that lately in the UK.,

K2-K6:
Wet type yes,  but normally I'm using gell which comes ready to go.

It maybe for leaking in transit regs,  ie if they drop the package and crack a wet filled casing versus dropping the acid pack which is quite robust.

I think it is now illegal for them to send them unfilled with the separate acid pack thats why I asked.

Nurse Julie:
All ours have arrived pre filled for the past 18 months of so due to the new regs.

Brought in to cover off the acid throwing incidents a few years ago I think
