Battery leaking?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I just threw a kenetic hc1800 under the hood so I put my stinger spv44 in the back behind the sub box.

So as some of you know, stinger batteries come with a metal case. I took the battery out of it's case and noticed some yellowish build up on the walls of the battery case and battery.

Should I be worried about leaving the battery in the back because of those spots? (I have no idea if it's hydrogen buildup or some weird acid that I don't want to breath in..)

Any ideas?

What does it smell like?

Pics?

Not really enough to "smell". Just a few yellowish/white spots on the battery case.

And I'd post pics but it's late and my car is in the garage..

I just don't want to die of carbon monoxide poisoning from this battery! Maybe that's being to serious, maybe it's not, idk.

Even though it's a dry cell agm battery I want to make sure that even if it might leak a little bit whatever it leaks will not kill me haha..

I would say to go get a radiation suit that comes with a top of the line gas mask. Lol just kiddin. But no seriously, I would obviously disconnect it and such (wearing some sort of breathing protection if you're worried about it) and take it somewhere to get looked at. Or you could email/call stinger. Ask if that's normal.

Thanks for the reply.

I emailed stinger so hopefully they will get back to me and I'll also post some pics tonight.

I was told this is the battery rubbing on the case.

My mind is at rest. Haha

make sure you fuse the wiring in the front and the BACK, alot of people forget the fuse at the back for the + line that runs up to the front, glad you found it was just dust on the case, lol, agm batteries are really safe
