meade916 Posted April 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I've seen regular car batteries drain from concrete, but nothing like optima or xs power. nope. you have probably seen regular batteries drain from being a bad battery....and time catching up with it. But the concrete didn't have anything to do with it. 3 Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

_paralyzed_ Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Well, they can, but they will slowly discharge anywhere. The concrete has nothing to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I've seen regular car batteries drain from concrete, but nothing like optima or xs power. I've seen batteries drain from sitting. Regardless of material, regardless of brand.

Sergeant_Skyrim Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Had a guy I was buying an XP3000 and 2000 from locally few months back get mad at me when I set the XP3000 on the ground to grab the cash out of my pocket. He was freaking out thinking that I was going to blame him for a bad batt after I killed it by setting it on the ground or something lol Quote Build in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoFatt0529 Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Does anyone know why people say that It will drain it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 i just dealt with this about a month ago, bought a car, it needed a battery and alt. I brought those over and set the battery on the floor. The guy was like "dont set that..." i didnt even let him finish cause i knew where it was going and didn't want to argue. I just set it in the car and said, "gotta run, see ya!" Quote Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.
