It's not the voltage, tis the current. A bike battery, shorted out, can melt tools easy. Shocked

Still it could be worse, like the time I sent my old apprentice to remove the battery off the boss's Jaguar XJS. The battery is in the boot right by the fuel tank and he arced the spanner to it Smile
Needless to say we managed to remove it quickly and bollock him as required !!

Not really helpfull, as I done it whilst removing the batteries. Laughing I was removing some batteries that I reckon where around 27 to 30 years old. They were connected together with metal flatbar and the bolts had fairly corroded over the years. When I tried to slacken the first bolt, it sheared off immediately. I wasn't really expecting this and my hand slipped causing the ensuing fireworks display. Neutral
