That does not sound  best to me. I get the point but there are much better
ways. Not good for you to be close around a bank in EQ. If you are checking
water level every month the level should not be really low. You do this in
case you miss a cell a month back! You should be counting as the water goes
in to see if you have put about the same amount in. I have never noticed
any advantage to mixing the cells after watering. They will get mixed the
next day. If this concerned you, you could run a 30 minute absorb after
watering.

I like to EQ before watering so my customer does not over fill and start
the corrosion process. Just open all of the cells and look before they EQ.

I also like to mark 2 of the lower SG cells and 2 of the good ones. This
makes it easier for my clients to check the bank. Once every summer or 2
they need to look at all of the cells. Summer is best because it is the
time when you can do long corrective EQ's if you find trouble.
