Battery Venting

1
Does anyone connect a hose to their battery vent?

Do owners leave the vent plugs in or remove them?

Hi Phill, Yes I have reinstated the main battery vent. These "euro" style batteries don't offen come with new elbows or hoses and most people don't refit them. Its a win win situation in my books to have harmful gasses and acid spills out side rather than inside. You don't want the battery tray of that beautiful blue beast to go all rusty. Greg E

Sorry Phill didn't read the second part of your question. It should have a plug on one end and a nintey degree elbow  and hose vented outside on the other. Greg E

Well , Phill, between you and me and the fence post, I did drill a hole into
the battery tray. Didn't really want to share this with you, but you
asked... Hart

I hope that you used a Bosch, Metabo or AEG drill and not a Ryobi or Makita.

My Metabo drill 2speed is 53 years young and never failed. The AEG saw was the first tool I bought in Oz so it's only 30 years . Ha

My Syncro is a diesel. Battery is in the engine compartment. It's fully-vented, I suppose.

The Westfalia Weekender came with large vent hose in both battery boxes. This was a US requirement for campers. Not sure if they did this elsewhere.

Are the trakka battery compartments vented? Greg
