ALSO...a battery should NEVER be stored ON concrete...it's BAD for them, but I cant remember why.

Lead acid batteries should not be stored on the concrete because it drains them if you have to put them on the ground use plywood under them.
Wonder how electrical drain occurs like that? You have neg/pos poles that never touch the concrete and as far as I KNOW, concrete is NON conductive....hummmmm.

Concrete is not normally conductive but it is more a temperature thing. Lead acid batteries produce heat during their chem reaction process concrete dissipates the heat then battery starts over trying to balance itself again.
