I have found very little evidence of pressure relief valve opening on any of the packs I have worked with. I do have a module that was exploded inside the case and then caught fire. The customer was totally unaware of it happening other than the car stopped.

Looks like you understand these packs more than most people. Good job!
I think a mobile setup would work well. I spend many hours a week helping Prius owners who have their cars stuck in dealerships who just want to throw expensive parts at them. I understand the reasons though. These cars have been so trouble free, that few dealer techs have been able to get really good with them. The Toyota factory diagnostic procedures take too long to find out what is really wrong as well.
I do have a standing offer of $200 for Gen1 packs with all electronics included or for bad Gen2 packs.
Thanks for starting these threads. The moderators will not allow me to start them due to what I do.
