Hey Michael,
I heard that it was a pretty small shed, can you comment on that please.
Good luck on the trouble shooting.

Hey Everybody,
I wanted to circle back on the Discover AES explosion that I reported a
few weeks ago. As far as we know, there was a thermal runaway
situation. Gas from the battery filled the power room and then ignited
causing an explosion. It was hot enough that anything plastic melted.
The steel man door blew off its hinges. Beyond that, we are still
trying to figure out why it happened.
For now, what I want to say is that Discover has been awesome. The VP,
CEO and crew responded immediately. They are paying for the cleanup of
the building by a specialized remediation company, offered to pay to
have the building rebuilt, 2nd day shipped new rack mount batteries and
a pre-built Schneider system to the site. Are paying a plumbing
contractor to replace all of the plumbing (booster pump, pressure tank
and significant treatment equipment. Flying Mike Wight (ace off-grid
installer and applications engineer for Discover) to the site for the
rebuild. And reimbursing me for my involvement. This with no coercion
or dawdling about. As soon as they found out, they were on it. I spoke
with the VP and CEO and they genuinely care about my clients and want
to do right for the sake of doing right, not to avoid litigation. Tell
me of another RE company, or any company for that matter that would
respond this way.
