    I am looking of those engineers, I have a rather interesting project which is also in a complex. I have pushed the battery location to the architect to see how they respond.

    People are installing lithium batteries everywhere. I had a chat with a person who works on multi million rand luxury yatchs, he is going to share some of the document they use for lithium batteries, because there arent no garage to install lithium batteries.

    We can only wait and see who will put their hand up and take on the challenge to create a basic guideline for the various lithium battery options.

    Too many people who know too much on social media and too little actual facts.

    By the way I see more fires caused by home made "Dc combiner boxes" than lithium batteries.

    I have seen more fires caused by Electric blankets and a mattress is as flammable as it can get

    What I have seen, not fires yet but using the MC4 rated at 20Amps being paralleled to 50Amps...

    But for the home made combiner, what is generally the cause ?

    To many connections, loose connections and crap equipment.
