 do you know anyone who works in a warehouse where they use electric fork/reach trucks, they have to keep the batteries topped up with distilled water, this is usually purchased by them in 25ltr barrels, you can only ask!

funny you should say that......I got my very first ones from a country pub....they were all ex deep fat frier oil drums...25 litre, in clear plastic wrapped in cardboard boxes. After a thorough clean and neutralise they were great....used 'em for ages. The only trouble was that the plastic walls were a bit thin...and prone to puncture, but they made me a few hundred quid and allowed me to continue upgrading my kit......it's good to look back at how I got started in all this....
