Independent testing corroborates the failures. The technology outlet Hackaday reported on Prowse's controlled tests as they were published. A brand-new 100Ah unit's negative-terminal enclosure melted under an 80-amp discharge.[1] A unit cycled at 49 amps, well under its 100-amp rating, drove the battery-management system into repeated disconnects while the spacer melted, and the management system "never puts the battery into any kind of safe mode."[2] A 300-amp industrial unit "failed violently with a cell venting and the loose BMS rattling around in the case."[3] An earlier RV-industry report documented a field unit whose positive-terminal connection had worked loose and was measured at more than 200 degrees Fahrenheit with arcing inside the case.[4]
