Currently in Spain and just found our towels had rot spots on them. On looking into this we found the screws attached to the strap which hold the battery in place were covered in white fur (acid???). This is a self build very carefully done with a sealed gel battery. As far as we can see the battery isn’t leaking. The screws are holding the battery in place with a nylon strap screwed into fabric covered wood plinths. We have stupidly only taken the photo after cleaning off the white foam. Clearly not putting any towels next to it now. Anyone with professional knowledge who can tell us what happened, what we did wrong and what we need to do now would be appreciated have induced screws in question
