HAHAHAIt does, just as you outlined, BUT when the charge in the battery goes down the acid concentrations also goes down as the sulphuric acid converts to lead sulphate on the plates. You should go read about the very complicated process that goes on in a lead acid battery. Anyway the battery fluid becomes more like just plain old water and it will freeze.
Here, this should keep you busy for a while:

(That will make my friend happy if you can keep me busy…because then I don’t have a list of jobs for him to do when he comes here!! HAHAHA)
Thanks for sending that!!!
I will give it a read tonight!
