However, according to survey results in GS Vietnam 95% of participating vehicles used acid type batteries, but over 60% battery was low electrolyte, while 30% of drivers filled up the batteries with acid instead of distilled water. In addition, many of the buses and coaches filled their vehicle’s battery cavity with other cargo, resulting in air being unable to escape from the batteries – which can adversely affect a battery’s lifespan, lead to swelling, or in worst cases, explosion of the battery. At “Bus Care Day”, GS technicians were onsite to provide consultation to drivers on how they can make their batteries safer and more effective.
