TRUTH: A wet, lead acid battery produces hydrogen and oxygen gasses.
FACTS: Fortunately, vent caps in batteries help prevent explosions that occur when jumping. connecting or disconnecting charger/cables, and starting the engine. Keep in mind that a battery explosion will most likely cause eye and burn injury rather than create a Hollywood style explosion scenario.
SUGGESTION: It is very important that all sparks, flames and heat are nowhere near a battery that is charging or being cycled; and always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment when working near batteries.
