Re: battery vapors???

lead acid batteries give off hydrogen gas as they are being charged, whether by a charger or the cars charging system. just make sure if you are charging with a charger or jumper cables, no open flames or sparks and plenty of ventilation, which is usually not a problem with the hood up and as long as your not hanging over the battery or covering it up.
