I had a wet battery not in a box split open in a hurricane and dump the acid in the bilge, which then also got into a locker where our canned food was. We were both hungry and lacking power :(
So the acid thing has stuck with me.....

A gel 4D fits my spot perfectly and doesn't need a box (gel and agm don't leak), but it is like $700 for 190 AH vs. about $160 for 2 golf carts.
