14.7v is normal voltage for a good battery.

Naw 14.7v is actually dead on if you checked it with the car running. Alternators put out between 14.4 and 14.7v

kool!, well in that case if that not the over charging issue then why is my battery overheating and smelling??? could it be the battery itself? b/c i bought a brand new optima redtop battery.

What did you use to relocate the battery, was it a kit or something you put together? Also, how well is it grounded? Did you make sure to scrape any paint and what not off the grounding point?

if it smells it is bad already that means the cells are goning to die...and alternators should put out between 13.5 and 15 volts

rotten eggs are from the cat..
batteries emit nothing that smells like egg
especially since optimas are sealed

Hydrogen sulfide smells like eggs. Batteries emit hydrogen gas as the electrolyte evaporates.

BATTERY ACID IS MADE FROM SULFURIC ACID AND YES AN OPTIMA CAN SMELL LIKE A ROTTEN EGG MINE WENT BAD ALSO. JUST BECAUSE IT IS SEALED AND A DRY CELL DOESNT MEAN IT CANT SMELL LIKE A ROTTEN EGG. I HAVE SEEN PLENTY GO BAD I USED TO SELL THEM WHEN I WORKED IN A PARTS STORE.

PS IM NOT YELLING MY KEYBOARD IS STUCK ON CAPS

OH AND A BAD CAT CAN SMELL LIKE ROTTEN EGGS TOO BUT THE PROBLEM STARTED WHEN HE RELOCATED HIS BATTERY FROM WHAT I CAN TELL.

I have this egg timer. It doesn't smell like eggs though.
Boiled eggs and hot sauce smell bad when it comes out your butt the next day.
