Default Re: Jump Starting?

I wonder why all batteries don't blow up when a large high amp shop charger is hooked up. Check the voltage being pumped in. You don't leave these on for long periods at the high range. As stated before the explosions are from gas comming from the battery and spark ignited. I have jumped old Fords with 12 volts for many years with no explosions. G.M.
