Not on cement floor. Yeah, I know, that was the old rubber
cased batteries. Why take a chance.

Come on now Stormin, you must be older than dirt if you are still
worried about putting a battery on a cement floor. (I suppose that
should actually be a "concrete" floor?)

Actually, modern batteries with poly cases BENEFIT from being stored
on a concrete floor. Keeping a battery cool will slow down the
chemical reactions and prolong its life.
