    I've found the Zephyr Power vents to be a little undersized in
    larger batteries with arrays over 1000 watts.  Still get that smell
    in the room outside of the battery box, though its not explosive. 
    That was with the 12 v model.  I wouldn't mind seeing someone make a
    similar vent plumbed to larger pipe with about double the flow rate.<br>

      John,<br>
      <br>
      Thanks for the follow-up on this subject. I'd like to change the
      example to show the ventilation required rather than the hydrogen
      liberated. <br>
      <br>
      Consider a 48-volt bank of L16RE-B batteries: that's 24 cells of
      370 amphours. Using the 14 cc/hr/Ah/cell H2 rate for equalizing
      gives a total hydrogen of 124320 cc/hr or 124.32 liter/hr. To keep
      the hydrogen concentration down to 1% would require that the total
      ventilation is is 12432 liter/hr or 12.432 cubic meters per hour
      or 7.3 CFM. A 12-volt Zephyr battery vent will move about 6 CFM,
      that enough to keep the H2 concentration down to 1.2%. Zephyr
      Industries claims the vent is suitable for 2200-amphour (12-volt)
      battery banks which is six 370-amphour batteries. I've seen too
      many battery boxes with no ventilation or with a single Zephyr
      vent for 16 or 24 batteries.<br>
      <br>
      There is a DIN standard (EN 50272) for ventilating battery rooms.
      The calculations for it are based on an assumed (electrolyzing)
      current for various charging voltages. The main reason it is
      interesting is that the ventilation requirements come out about to
      be twice as much as when using the H2 rates you provided. I
      suspect that is partly because it is intended to to cover all
      batteries and it is intentionally conservative.<br>

              “float charging” mentioned above is kind of confusing to
              many. Indeed, there should be no mention of gassing during
              “float” charge mode, since we are below gassing voltage.
              It is mentioned for info here although not typical for
              deep-cycle products: the Hydrogen production is only a
              concern for UPS type of applications, where the battery
              stays at float charge for several days /months. Float
              charge mode is actually meant in “float” applications to
              mitigate the self-discharge of the battery due to its
              natural self-discharge. Indeed, even the very small float
              charge current build up hydrogen over time. Note: VRLA
              technology will generate less Hydrogen than flooded since
              the required float current will be less for VRLA
