  Yeah, I’m not sure what relation that has to this solar powered website.

    Btteries can catch fire. Certain types. Although one would probably not use batteries that are prone to that. Like Lithium Ion.

      But why would they be talking about using batteries for their non-solar setup, which was the context.

      Also it still seems like a weird concern. Again. Unless we were talking about the solar setup and they’re worried they fucked something up or something. And even still. You don’t need much battery for an rpi or whatever.

      They were saying they were concerned about fire risk with their non-battery setup. They brought up this setup as if it’d alleviate that risk.
