Some of those banks are impressive as would be the fire from one.

 

Rather what I have been thinking too.

People are so paranoid about having flammable fuels, gases and whatever else in their homes yet seem to not have an issue with the idea having a huge highly volatile battery that stores kilowatts of energy in their house.

I don't get it? Where's the mental disconnect come from between how they see one thing that's not really dangerous in normal useage as being extremely dangerous yet another that's extremely dangerous as being nothing of concern?

 

High power battery banks of any kind have the potential for arc faults and fire from shorts. If you want to play with these things use the proper circuit protection fuses and breakers.
