    optimas are sealed gel cell. they are ok for non vented and interior areas.

    it is in a box, non vented but still in a box, and what dose it matter what side its on? if a group of people is going somewhere we don't take my car, so its not a big concern to me. i can't see it interrupting the balance of the vehicle enough to matter.

    the battery is almost 2% of the weight of the car. putting it on the opposite side of centerline from the driver helps balance out the car. if a 200 lbs driver gets in, that's almost 8% of the car's weight. with the battery on the passenger side, you'll have the left side of the car only 6% heavier than the other side rather than 10% heavier.

    What box? I see no box in picture... Is it bolted to the floor of the car or anything? Get into a wreck and that battery is going to turn into a heavy projectile. The trunk is the place to put it if you need to get it out of the engine bay. I really can't think of any reason at all that you'd need the battery in the passenger compartment. It doesn't belong there.

    even if it isn't a projectile, something flies onto the terminals, you now have a fire inside the car and boiling battery acid going anywhere it pleases.

    lmao IT DOSE NOT MATTER IF YOU CAN'T SEE IT BECAUSE I KNOW ITS THERE!!! it is bolted down, the battery is secure and not moving anywhere. there will be no flying battery's. the only thing i need is a top for the box. also there is no NEED for the battery to be in the "passenger compartment" it's just where i put it. its convenient and doesn't get in my way.

    Looking good.
    "In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist." -Dwight D. Eisenhower

    "We can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans..." Bill Clinton (USA Today, 11 March 1993, page 2A)

    "Imagine a world in which one could jump through Grand Central Teleport in New York City, travel through a vortal tunnel in the time-space continuum, and emerge several seconds later at Union Teleport in Los Angeles. Such a world has been possible since 1968, when teleportation was first achieved by DARPA's Project Pegasus. When my quest, Project Pegasus, succeeds, such a world will emerge, and human beings linked globally via teleportation will proclaim the Time-Space Age has begun."
