The product, in the report: 8-volt lead acid battery that powers a golf cart
Our golf cart needed new lead-acid batteries, so the company that sold the cart to us, and continues to provide maintenance support, suggested we install six 8-volt batteries instead of the four 12-volt batteries that needed replacing.
While charging, potentially dangerous hydrogen gas is produced that made our carbon monoxide detector a floor above the cart garage alarm. Readings of 300 ppm were obtained in our house. When the detector was placed upon the batteries, the detector max’d out at 999 ppm.
I called the fire department, and their more sophisticated measuring device measured, and alarmed. They said that firefighters will evacuate a building if hydrogen is measured above 50 ppm!
My cart company never received a complaint before about this, and didn’t necessarily understand the gravity of the situation, but hydrogen gas had been escaping into my house for weeks!
