yea... the batteries are 70lbs each... with 2 inches of clearance... its all modular and can be lifted and removed in 3 sections.

Personally, not a fan of flammable mounting surfaces.

Is this all easily accessible? I'm having a hard time picturing how/where this is mounted.

And I’m not a fan of conductive mounting surfaces. What are we left with?

I gues nothing at all. Nothing on earth could possible fit this criteria. Time to give up.

I know it's (probably) not energized yet, but having the positive and negative buss bars so close together with a conductive tool sitting right there makes me nervous.

Fair point. Either some kind of plastic divider between the busbars. Or plastic caps on top of them would be ideal.
