[RE-wrenches] Exploding LFP battery

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

I sill have a few blown 200A fuses from the LG RESU10 48 v test here.
They look nasty BTW. Not just open but blown open! How were the rest of the
batteries Jay? Curious how they were charged as that is usually the killer.
Too much solar or a big charger over 100 ADC?

 When we recycle, LFP still
goes to the Waste Management commercial site. Guard gates and looks like a
prison
from the highway near Kettleman City. A real in the middle of
nowhere town. I would like any info on recycling. I do not think there is
much that is reliable or responsible. It was bad before C19 and I do not
see much going on in California. EPA is useless for this in my
experience.

These folks below will only take 300+ pounds of lithium ion.
Anybody used
them?
