Im with you,, battery is done.
I sure wouldn't want the battery to explode on me.
Ive never heard of that happening during charging, BUT,, Ive seen 2 go off. One was tied down with a makeshift tie down & distorted the case, creating a short & it blew up in a huge way,,Thankfully no one was very close. I had installed the battery on a pickup truck bed trailer that was hauling a welder. There was no "Offical" battery tray & hold down, so, I fashioned a tie down from a piece of seat belt. I guess I got 'er a bit too tight,, about 3 weeks or a month later my boss & I were walking by. He provided a "shadow" for me, I didnt get hit by anything,, The clothes he was wearing developed holes where he got nailed when they got washed,, And I was using a grinder on the header while I was installing the Supertrapp & shot sparks too close to the vent hose on mine. Sounded like a 22 went off. I spent HOURS washing with Arm & Hammer baking soda & water, then drying.. DONT ever DO that,,
