Actually its not far from the truth.. in 2010 our battery was installed with a downward slope (Terminals downward made the cable connection run much shorter) Well lo and behold after one match we noticed something that looked little damp in the battery carrier after removing the battery... Very carefully we checked with a little bit of baking soda and yup the battery had leaked. From that point on batteries are always right side up. Having a leaky battery is not something you want to deal with during competition.
