Keep in mind that when batteries charge they give off Hydrogen gas which is very explosive. If it is not a well ventilated area, or there is a proper mix of gas (ie LEL), then the spark could be very dangerous. Maybe I'm paranoid, but I always open the compartment for a few minutes before I disconnect and reconnect. It is something to be aware of.
