didn't they introduce the battery coolers in the EB because they were exploding and causing fires in the EA's, im pretty sure i read that somewhere, although this fits the altenator theory too.
IE alt overcharged battry and heated it up to the point of combustion?? also for insurace reasons this thread better self distruct soon

I believe late EA series 1 forward had battery coolers, only the first of the EAs went without. Mine was a series 2 and had the cooler.
