Some I checked are using LFP batteries. LFP aren't a fire hazard. Not sure if all of the stoves use LFP but I'd say it's likely. Using non-LFP is significantly more expensive and they die much quicker.
Fuck the WiFi.
LFP batteries are safer than NMC. But LFP batteries can still catch fire, explode. They can’t be extinguished with water. They produce very toxic gasses. In the event of a structure fire, they remain in place, while a building’s gas supply can be turned off.
Right now everyone is installing enormous batteries everywhere with little concern for fire hazard. My suspicion is that as the number of fires, and death toll, climbs, we’re going to see increasingly strict regulations on large batteries, ultimately outlawing everything from power stations to electric cars from multi-unit residential buildings.
