About ATV Battery...
Obviously, you can't move an inch without a running engine. The battery provides us with a simple and convenient method of starting the engine. For those with curiosity looming in their brains, the quad battery is essentially a motorcycle battery and nothing more.
A motorcycle battery is simply a miniaturized version of an automotive battery. As with cars and most full size vehicles, quad batteries produce 12 volts.
As with any starting battery for an automobile, ATV, or quad batteries are lead-acid batteries. They contain a somewhat diluted sulfuric acid electrolyte liquid in its cells. This electrolyte solution is a highly corrosive poison.
It is capable of producing flammable and toxic gasses when the battery is charged and can explode if ignited by a spark or open flame. Any time you must deal with a battery containing the acidic electrolyte, you must use care for your own safety, especially around your eyes which are susceptible to permanent damage if the acid were to contact them.
