Great use case for solar shed/offgrid/cabin... I think people underestimate how much you can do with a solar shed , batteries, and the sorta reduced risk aspect of a shed catching fire vs a house. That being said its really easy to follow safety precautions. I cant wait to try this out. |

Safety is important of course. But people are being very selectively paranoid about this stuff.
Same with EV batteries vs. ICE engines. Combustion engines that intentionally explode highly flammable fuels sometimes catch fire (surprise). People think nothing of parking them in garages connected to their house. Sometimes those cars are quite old. Maybe the wiring is a bit dodgy. Or the fuel hose a bit dried out and leaky. And the guy you pay to fix your old car is maybe not a trained professional. Or something else goes wrong. In short, it's extremely common for vehicles to catch fire (most common reason for fire trucks to get called to a scene). And lots of people die in vehicle fire related incidents. Almost all of which are good old ICE cars. Yet all people talk about is battery fires in EVs. Which are quite rare and pretty much never happen at all for certain newer battery types (e.g. LFP, sodium ion).
