Build box for batteries. In really small quantities battery fumes are not explosive...

check into your batteries. see if they emit a gas when charging like normal car batteries. if they do then you got the wrong ones. you need the ones that dont emit gas. deep cycle gel celled batteries.

Box the batterys in & vent this to the outside of the car, most cars have vent slot's behing the trim panels in the trunk.
