How can you measure your E-lytes/water

[Helz_McFugly]

How do you measure your E-lyte/water ratio? I hear alot about 28%. something like 2 lbs of KOH for every gallon of water. I know you can check the resistance of your mixture with two plates and a meter. but im not exactly what to look for. ive seen some people use the gravity testers for battery acid. Anyone know the easiest way to check it?

Yes that gravity tester is the only way that i now how to do this , not that i have done this but last year i was looking to purchasing 1 so i could get a winter mixture ready which now that i think of it i will have to start get something ready so my cell dosen't freeze.:(

A good battery hydrometer will tell the specific Gravity

KOH

28% = 1.27

lately i here that 33% may be slightly better

33% = 1.32
