Just as a reminder, I'll pass this along.
You know how it is, you pop the hood, you reach for the dipstick and check the oil. You see maybe that you need some washer fluid and top it off. If you think about it, you may pull the air filter and check it out. You get side-tracked and wipe down the pretty engine cover. Bing bang the hood is closed. On a whim, I checked the battery and noticed it looked low. No plates were showing or anything but I headed to the grocery store and picked up a jug of Distilled water and a turkey baster. I was surprised that I needed so much water. I had to fill the baster 2 times for each battery hole.
So do your self a favor and see if it's thirsty. With the trend of the past few years about "maintenance free" battery, this is something maybe we tend to overlook.
