Beware,  I installed one of  these in a remote off grid home.  
 
The float valves on each of the new caps DO NOT completely shut off flow to the cell.  
 
They are intended to make the battery maintenance of industral forklifts faster - they even come with a quick disconnect and a paddlewheel flow indicator.  
 
The intention is to drive the forklift to a tank of water, connect the quick disconnect, and wait until the flow meter stops spinning, and then disconnect the fitting from the tank.
 
If you leave the batteries connected to the tank,  they Will OVERFILL.
 
Regards,
 
Wayne
