Hydrogen gas is always present in a charging battery, but usually a levels that aren't significant. _________________________________________; /html/shop-talk/2011-07/msg00079.html (6,712 bytes)

That's why it explodes so easily; pure hydrogen will just burn. See electrolysis. -- Randall _______; /html/shop-talk/2011-07/msg00085.html (7,557 bytes)

The excess charge rate will be causing some heating, but is actually splitting the water molecules; /html/shop-talk/2011-07/msg00086.html (9,784 bytes)
