> about batteries is that they're a fire hazard.

yes, although they are statistically much safer than fridges, or combined washer driers. (unless you include cheap e-bikes or hoverboards...)

I don't have mine inside the house, its very much outside with a wooden lintel supporting a surprisingly sandy flower trough.

I also have micro inverters, because they are more efficient, and less fucking noisy. They are also, as you hint at, much safer. Partly because they are not switching ~400v DC but also because they don't need to handle as much power.
