I'm not planning to charge or discharge at high C rates. All the precautions are because of use in a marine environment with salty air and sustained bumpiness. By 'hot', I mean live. The case is positively charged and the blue plastic covering is easily damaged and represents the absolute minimum of insulation in a static install but entirely inadequate (in my view) in a mobile installation. The problem with stainless is that it is a poor conductor. The stainless studs don't matter, they only hold the stack together but if a washer is needed in a stack then stainless may be better avoided in favour of an Ox-gard coated aluminium one.
