meade916 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 it wont hurt them to be upside down during shipping. Just dont mount it upside down in your car.

Neo_frog Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Just test them real quick. They are probably fine. Upside down, short-term, won't hurt a battery. Mount upright (or sideways if necessary) in the car. Quote Need an install? Hit me up.[email protected]Got car audio questions?

crunkjuice1 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I think its bad upside down while in use with all the reactions taking place inside battery. Since they weren't in use your ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
