Re: Battery charging issues

When you connected the battery was there a little spark when you touched the cable to the post? If so you have a draw on the system somewhere.
Just wanna say, also, be carefull doing battery connections after charging a battery. There are flammable gasses given off when charging which collect in the air space above the acid and eventually self vent. a spark generated from connecting a cables could cause those contained gases to blow the lid off the battery right in your face. Some will say that is few and far between, like I used to say until it happened to me. I was lucky to have a friend with me and I was close to a garden hose.
