Will AA battery explode?
Will AA battery explode?
Whether they are 9-volt, AA, AAA, C or D size batteries, all are capable of exploding. Few consumers are aware of that potential – despite fine print on the side of the batteries warning about the risk of explosion. When it happens, it can be downright dangerous.
What does it mean when your battery drains overnight?
Why the Battery Drains Overnight A slow battery drain when everything is off is called a parasitic power loss. This happens when something – a glovebox light, an amplifier, any electrical component – is pulling power from the battery when it shouldn’t.
Where does the clunking sound come from on a car battery?
A couple of weeks ago, I heard an occasional clacking or clicking (maybe even slight clunking) sound coming from the area near by door where the batteries are located. When I took the battery cover off, it was clear that the sound was coming from the solenoids or whatever is next to the batteries.
Why does my car battery keep clicking and clacking?
It doesn’t look as though you do much to it and if the battery electrolyte is low that can cause the constant clicking as the system attempts to charge it. A dry battery holds very little charge so it looks fully charged and then discharged in a very short time.
How can I tell if my car battery is draining?
Connect a multi-meter between the positive battery post and the (disconnected) positive battery cable. Measure voltage draw. If you do have parasitic power drain, start pulling fuses one at a time to see if volt meter drops. If voltage drops when you pull a fuse, you’ve found the culprit.
Why does my Batt keep clicking on the battery?
Once the batt is solidly into >12v territory, your relay clicking should stop. I suspect this is not happening. Either the battery has a bad cell (five charged cells and one dead one = ~10.5v battery) or it is simply not charging.

Why is my car battery relay not clicking?
It is likely only clicking due to low voltage and the battery charger not quite having enough power to both charge the dead battery and run whatever is trying to run in the vehicle. The relay will almost certainly not be clicking any more once the battery returns to normal.
