HTHM Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Does one need to vent a battery box? I made one up tonight with the charger as part of the box, mounted on the outside, but I am wondering if I need to drill vent holes into it as well. Oh BTW, do not misplace the wingnut that come with the batteries! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishfield Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Yes... and it's highly recommended to replace the wing nuts with stainless nuts and use a wrench. As matter of fact Mercury mandates it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTHM Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Thanks for the advice, I will do that and as well, coat the connections with No-lux. (a paste used to preserve residential alum. wiring) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
