I got ours out last year on a service day, and it was broken (no explanation for that). Today was service day and a careful, sincere co-worker who wants to learn more about how to take care of our carts was helping me. I turned it over to him when it came time for me to go deal with customers.

When I came back he said, "I did a bad. I dropped it." I said, "Yeah, and it broke in the clear plastic section, I bet, which is called the flow indicater."

Yup.

One little drop on concrete, or even holding it wrong, and that section of plastic snaps.

You have to order another one then.

$250 for another one!!!! and you cannot order just the part that broke.

So, I wrapped the flimsy plastic areas of the end assembly tightly with electrical tape, several layers, and serviced batteries yesterday. That's definitely just a temporary fix. When we get a new one, I am going to wrapped it in something . . . do what shoulda been done to begin with.

Some valves still not closing, so some cells are overfilling.

Yeah, I know the end result of that . . . but it does not matter if our tech does not care.
