Re: Battery Spill Kit Contents
Back when I was with 294, we did have a battery spill. We mounted the battery upside down in 2010, and the cumulative effects of driving over the bumps led to a failure of the top vent of the battery. The leaking acid burned through a good portion of the anodizing on the battery holder before we started neutralizing it with baking soda. We contacted the UL safety inspectors, and they disposed of the battery in some sort of acid-resistant plastic container. So essentially, they're the ones to contact if you have a battery spill.
