We must
think
safety
when we
are
working
around
and with
batteries.
Remove
all
jewelry.
After
all you
don't
want to
melt
your
watchband
while
you are
wearing
the
watch.
The
hydrogen
gas that
batteries
make
when
charging
is very
explosive.
I have
had 2
batteries
blow up
and
drench
me in
sulfuric
acid.
That is
no fun.
This is
a good
time to
use
those
safety
goggles
that are
hanging
on the
wall.
Sulfuric
Acid
eats up
clothing
and you
may want
to
select
Polyester
clothing
to wear,
as it is
naturally
acid
resistant.
I just
wear
junk
clothes,
after
all
Polyester
is so
out of
style.
When
doing
electrical
work on
vehicles
it is
best to
disconnect
the
ground
cable.
Just
remember
you are
messing
with
corrosive
acid,
explosive
gases
and
100's
amps of
electrical
current.
