Brilliant effort. It takes a lot of work to determine the 'fuse link'
when planning sabotage (an old profession of mine). This incident
reportage defines places a weak spot fuse link that is now known and can
be reproduced with predictable result, even if only to disengage the
bank links.
Some folk would pay handsomely for such data.
While yes , the failure point is of interest , it should not be
'adequately disclosed' to allow others of evil intent to get targeting
information.
And why no back up power supply, pre wired!
