Subject: RE: Battery exploded





Two possibilities:

Batteries produce hydrogen gas when charging, and you should always make sure the hatch of the compartment they're in is open while charging, otherwise hydrogen can accumulate to concentrations high enough to explode.

Also possible is a charger malfunction which caused an over-charging of the battery, which made the electrolyte boil and cause an overpressure in the battery case...

I think the 2nd more likely, looking at the damage to the case.
