The invention is a mixing or dosing arrangement ( 10 ) for filling a container, conduit or vessel ( 12 ), which is used for receiving flowable materials therein from a flowable material combining manifold ( 58 ) and to transfer flowable materials therefrom to a suitable battery. The mixing or dosing arrangement ( 10 ) has a battery replenishment water source or reservoir ( 26 ), a battery condition evaluating composition container ( 28 ), and a battery life extending composition container ( 30 ) which are all connectable to a flowable material combining manifold ( 58 ), with valves used to control the flows for properly dosing the above described fluids as a flowable mixture into the container, vessel or conduit ( 12 ), which is used for dosing a battery. The battery condition evaluating composition may be a colorized composition. Colorizing the flowable mixture with a pH sensitive battery evaluating composition makes it possible to use the colorized flowable mixture to identify a battery in a condition that has deteriorated to an extent that a life extending treatment is unlikely to be effective. |
