Sealed onecs also can open and refill.
There are breathing holes on the side of the so call sealed battery, water will still evaporate but at a lower rate.

Why? That’s the oem coolant for their cars which are all aluminum rad

Check its pink or red. Pink is the OAT type suitable aluminium

For real? been using that for quite sometime...

Its more towards the composition in the coolant dont offer protection for aluminium componant, the red was more for old copper brass type radiator.

hmm.. I just bought 3 bottles of battery water from BHP. not sure whether safe to use or not like that. hard to find distilled water
all sold in minimart is now RO water.

edit: the only thing it says it has a MAX manganese content of 0.1mg/kg (0.01%)

edit2: guess its deionized, based on the conductivity, 1mS/m max, well within the specs for deionized water conductivity (max 2mS/m)
