In the new article, I break down:
What the Waratah Super Battery is supposed to do
What went wrong during testing
Why transformers matter so much
Why commissioning and final testing are critical before full operation

Good reminder for anyone learning power systems: batteries, solar, and other newer technology still depend on solid electrical fundamentals like transformers, protection, controls, and testing.
