Testing a gel cell battery

Postby Yellow_Cad » Mon May 11, 2009 1:57 pm

Is it OK to use an automotive type, direct short battery tester to test a motorcycle gel cell or is that too severe a test for the smaller motorcycle battery especially a gel cell?

I've seen batteries explode during a short circuit test. Bad idea IMO.
