I heard that a couple of recent garage fires were caused by batteries exploding in golf carts parked in the garage.
Is there any particular brand of golf cart or battery that is prone to this?

I was part of an investigation of a recent fire of a Village home. The demolition team was accompanied by insurance engineers and investigators. The remainds
Of the cart Removed piece by piece while photos were taken.
It was explained to us that the house caretaker had plugged in the cart charger that morning knowing the owner would be ariving that day and it was possible that the separate low amp charger was also present. That combination could have cause the spark that ingnited the hydrogen gas produced by all wet cell lead acid batteries.
The pull down staircase was open to the garage attic for ventilation and the fire spread throughout the structure very fast and the house was destroyed.
To answer your question all lead acid batteries produce hydrogen gas and no MFG is better than anouther in this case.
