[QUOTE="husker77, post: 7994480, member: 641116"] Actually batteries do not explode, the hydrogen gas that is emitted as part of the charging process is what can explode. If you threw a battery on the ground and busted the case wide open it wouldn't really do anything but what the sulfuric acid itself does. I'm guessing a lot of the horror stories are from improper charging or electrical systems. If it both of those holes would have been as big as I originally thought I would not have tried to fix it, but since there is very little compromise to the outer case I will give it a shot. Probably try some two part epoxy, it should chemically adhere to the plastic case a little. I'm not really out anything if it doesn't work, the battery will still be bad if it doesn't work. I was a professional, I've dealt with batteries a lot. [/QUOTE]
