Hi. I'm going install my 60 ah gel battery inside my caravan in the living area. Do they release poisonous gases while charging or using?
...but AGM and gel don't vent anything in normal use, only when abused by bad charging putting them on the verge of exploding...Lead Acid batteries produce hydrogen-not poisonous perse but explosive-so that's why they should be charged in a vented area and no sparks around! If the area the battery is in , no worries!
A quick search of the internet tells me that AGM batteries in good condition and under a correct charging and usage regime are generally relatively safe.Hi. I'm going install my 60 ah gel battery inside my caravan in the living area. Do they release poisonous gases while charging or using?
