What happened? mickey Note: This topic was moved here by the Website Administrator from the section titled Coach Modifications & Technical Library Questions & Comments.

I fined this of great interest, as it is the first time I have heard of this happening like this. I would immediately contact the maker of the battery and the retailer that sold the battery for their imput. |

Mickey; have you found out anything further about your battery problem? If not, perhaps it being displayed on the "Discussion" forum will generate some responces. Jim |

Batteries emit hydrogen and any spark or open flame invites same. Battery compartments with lead acid batteries must be well ventilated. Don't mean to insult anybody's intelligence but as a teen ager I saw a battery explode and it left a 70 year impression. To push this a little further, I would opine something on outside of battery was involved. Ralph |

I, fortunately, have never had this happen, but I witnessed a battery explosion when a shade tree mechanic disconnected a booster cable in the wrong sequence. |
