I can only speak from theory as I do not have experience in this exact application. I learned in school that hydrogen (a by-product of batteries) is lighter than air. They used it in the Hindenburg.

Batteries are known to arc and throw sparks as well.

I personally wouldn't plug my vent holes.
But someone who may have more real world rv experience than me, may have a good reason to plug them.
