Well the quickest way to test the outlet is to plug in something like your hair dryer, radio etc. If the batteries exploded I wonder if you had the wrong type of batteries in the charger? I am not sure if I would even want to try and clean it up. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Claudia" <cdelreal1...@sbcglobal.net> To: <blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Saturday, February 06, 2010 2:12 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Battery Charger!
Hi, We just had a nasty experience. We have a battery charger, and I was charging a set of 4 AA batteries. I left to the store, and My fiance said that he heard two pops, like when you pop bubble wrap. When I came home to unplug the charging unit, there was battery acid dripping down from it. I don't think the charger will work anymore; I'm assuming that I should toss it out? I need to know if the outlet where the charger was plugged in may have been affected? How do I know if that outlet still works? Thanks.
