Miata batteries from Mazda have a tubing system to vent the gases out
of the trunk. The replacement battery would be great for secondary
uses, but I was cautioned to use the original equipment type as a
replacement.
I'm aware that this doesn't have anything to do with the subject at
hand, but I hate for Mazda to get a black eye over this.
