Yep.
I made accessing the batteries easy with the slide out tray, but I still hate looking in all those holes.

This was cheaper than a “tubed” watering system. Just pop off the black cap and manually squeeze a water bottle until the float goes back up.

Well our 2019 fifth wheel has the two batteries on the bottom shelf. There was no room to check the water level as there was another shelf for two more batteries just about 4" above them that serves no purpose for me. I couldn't even remove the batteries to check the water level. I don't know how the dealer initially got them in there to beging with. I had the dealer remove the shelf that was put in with just rivets. Now I have plenty of room to get to the batteries and also check the water levels. I have no plans on adding two more batteries but I'll keep the shelf in case the new owners want it if I ever sell it. Will be easy to put it back in with pop rivets.
