so I went and pulled my desk Optima Red top out of the Z to go get charged over the weekend and found a puddle in the battery tray and the battery itself had alot of condensation built up all around it... does this mean the battery is toast or can I dry it all off and go get it charged?

" Dry cell batteries have a habit of "leaking" or "sweating"

which is really corrosion within the battery. As most dry cell

batteries contain chlorides, a leaking battery can do a great deal

of damage to surrounding metal."
