How often does anyone top up their fluid? I know it depends on how many punctures you ve had. But assuming you havnt had any does the fluid tend to evaporate or dry up in any way?

Usually if you shake the tyres you can actually feel/hear if there is still any liquid there... i usually top up every 3-4 months...right way to do it is to make sure you remove the dried stans which forms a rubber ball from inside the tyre...with your inflator, you have no excuses really to do it properly. Lazy way, i bought a tiny funnel that gets into the valve, and top up with the same amount...

When it doesn't hold the pressure for a day or two, then i know i'm out. of course.......that makes sense

Both what Malamute and G said. I tend to go 6 months with no issues. As for the actual topping up - this. Piece of urine. Stans - the injector
