Also, keep in mind that there are different types and chemistries for batteries that effect where and how they can be deployed.

AGMs are quite different in off gassing behavior than wet cell lead acid batteries, for example. And, your house is already full of LiIon batteries which soon will reach the price and ampacity to be good coach interior batteries.

Chris commented... "Batteries should never be hooked up inside the passenger compartment as they off gas hydrogen while charging. One word?
Hindenburg."

While I don't disagree, I wanted to note that in my '75 Avion the house battery stock location is in a metal box with a foam sealed lid, that is
vented by an inch and a half diameter tube that exits less than a foot away behind the license plate.

Question: Is this stock arrangement dangerous?

Thank you!
Dave
