Some questions regarding taking measurements (Need to purchase the hydrometer later today):
1) Do I then take out some liquid out of each cell to measure SG of each cell in the hydrometer, or do I just dip it in each cell?
2) Am I looking for any specific value with each measurement, or just simply making sure they are about even across all cells and adjusting the low readings by adding battery acid and topping off with distilled water?
thx
