Very nice! Maybe add a small vent to allow any gas to escape?...John

AGM batteries are no maintenance, completely sealed against fumes, Hydrogen, or leakage, non-spilling even if they are broken.  :thumb:

Trung is correct, non spilling is what is stated on the battery.  I have used many of this type at work and have never had one leak anything.  The battery I'm using is a 28 Ah Worker battery from Battery Plus.

Even the big Optima Blue Top 12V 75Ah AGM's are the same.  No spillage and no problem using them indoors since there is no venting.   :thumb:

The buffer kit with the 6H30Pi has about 50 hours on it at this point and it sounds really good!  If it keeps getting better  :o

Still waiting on the 6H30-DR to arrive.
