The smell is not acid, it is a by product of charging. It is hydrogen something or other (too lazy to look up at moment).
Does the charger shut off if you let it alone? I remember you were asking this last week.

Hubby unplugs it when he hears the gurgling so don't know. The meter on the charger starts at 15 to 20 amps and it gurgles when it is at 1amp and the acid smell gets strong so he unplugs it. He has been trying to put water in it once a week as directed but it hasn't taken any.
