"I have found an easy way to fill the Smacks type cell.
I went to the hardware store today and was looking for anything I could use to fill the cell with without removing any of the wires or fitting.
What I came up with seems like the ideal fix.
I purchased a 1/2" ball valve and a 1/2" spigot slip adpator. On the cap in an area where there are no other fittings or wire connections I measured half way between the cap threads (inside part not outside) and the cap square raised part (9/16".) I then took a 7/8" forsner (sp) bit and drilled through the cap. You will then need to cut off about 1/4 of the flange on the spigot adpator. Now insert the spigot adpator up throught the bottom of the cap for a test fit. It should be a very snug fit. Slip the ball valve over the adpator and check how it fits. It will NOT fit all the way down on the adpator, you only want to be sure you can get it most of the way over the adpator. Now remove everything from the cap. You will now epoxy everything together. Use only "J-B Weld" epoxy, this is the toughest epoxy I have ever found. I think I got mine from Wal-Mart. Be sure to put a good amount of it inside the ball valve as there is a gap that will need to be filled."
Hope this helps
