Re: batteries in general

Tim,

I assume you are talking about the Battery Tender, or some other similar 
device that steps down current once proper battery voltage has been 
achieved. I have one and I think it one of the best accessories I've 
purchased.  Plug your battery in and forget about it.  No worry about 
over charging.

I've never heard about the problem of an exploding sealed battery.  
Normal charging will always create H gas.  Maybe he is talking about what 
could happen if you left a charger on for a long time and the gas 
pressure built up beyond what the case could stand.  I've never heard of 
this happening, but that doesn't mean it won't.

Best,
Tony
