Heres one for you to ponder , you cannot charge a battery whilst it sits on a concrete floor , Go figure

Hi Ozcub,

That is an "old wives' tale" that has been around since the early wooden encased battery days. That story has been disproven countless times.

The more important safety factor would be if a battery is "gassing" it is expelling a very explosive hydrogen gas. This happens quickly when people set a charger on too high of a setting.

Hi Ozcub,

Yes, you said "ponder", yes, I pondered before I replied.

Not an attack on you, just stating what I know from many years working in the automotive and small engine industry.

People often tend to believe all kind of wild historical theories and stories that seem to be too good to be true because they are.
