Re: Battery Nightmares
That’s what I was afraid of. Dead batteries and dead OBC. Any recommendations on a brand of smart charger? I’ve had good luck with Scotty B, so if what he carries is good that’s probably what I’ll order.

Re: Battery Nightmares
You'll want to ask ScottyB about that. I'm sure he has plenty of good recommendations. I have no personal experience with aftermarket chargers.
The batteries may not be totally dead, but if they're continuing to out-gas after several days off the charger you certainly don't want that sulfury vapor floating around in the air in your house. Mix those fumes with just a tiny bit of moisture and it will wreck your AC system, and can wreck any electrical outlets that get moisture or condensation on them. It will discolor and damage paint, and will damage most exposed metals. |

Since the batteries were 8 months old I called Costco and explained the situation. They told me to bring them in and they’d refund them. Works for me. |
