I use the vinegar in my Downy ball all the time! I fill it to the same line as indicated for the fabric softener.

The vinegar doesn’t leave any scent, unless you use about double the amount.

I’ve heard about adding Vinegar to a Downy ball, but I haven’t tried it yet. I’ve recently become hooked on white lilac Pure Essentials and I’ve worried that the vinegar and detergent will clash. Maybe if I use the white lilac Bounce Sheets I can retain the smell (if smell is even an issue). I think I may experiment with it this weekend.

Interesting! I just use water, but I’ll try vinegar now. On a related note, I remember reading somewhere that vinegar can substitute for fabric softener (I don’t know amounts because I don’t have a softener dispenser and I doubt this would work in a Downy ball).
