Number one unplug the charger. Take it outside and rinse it well with the
garden hose. Set it up and let it dry and drain for a good week. Then try it
on some other batteries. Two. Plug something else into the outlet. I doubt
very much it caused any problems with the outlet. Slight possibility the
breaker may of tripped. In that case reset and it should be fine.

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.
Claudia
