ill never forget when somebody went out of there way to message me on FB about having battery on concrete, i was like dude, mind your own build.

No watch out! The concrete reacts with the plastic casing to create fumes that degrade the cells and if it sits there long enough you can get a bad cell so you need to store it on wood otherwise you'll have issues

Lolnope

As I understand it: That myth originated from batteries long ago, where they consisted of the lead plates in acid, sitting inside of a glass liner, protected by a wood box. Any moisture on the floor would soak into the wood, warping it, causing the glass inside to crack and leak electrolyte

I've seen regular car batteries drain from concrete, but nothing like optima or xs power.
