magpye Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 half and half - it was a flyer from yuasa iirc claimed that marker pen or even the sticky from using insulating tape would degrade the plastic and lead to gas escaping though obviously if you bought there special " battery marking kit " there wouldnt be an issue didnt they once publish a chart with the degree`s over optimum to hours off expected life formula plotted out ( every 5 degrees looses an hour ish ) CONFORMATION Received today, 24-08-07 From - Technical Services Manager (Yuasa Battery Sales UK) ......... our install guide mentions not to use organic solvents or adhesive on or near the batteries. We have found that most insulation tapes and paper stickers are okay and do not cause damage. Generally if a substance smells like a solvent or is oil or grease based, then do not use it on or near the batteries. So, no permanent marker pens then!! Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
