The chap just wants a CD player in his bus, as is fitted as standard in virtually every caravan and motor-home sold today, this does not make him a hooligan, give him a break.

I take your point as to the use and effectiveness of these devices and would happily use something else but single DIN CD unit is the norm. I suspect the demographic of new van buyers are older persons hence the digital age of smaller, lighter, cheaper, less power consuming devices has not yet arrived in the leisure vehicle world.

I do not understand your exploding battery concerns, all leisure vehicles have leisure batteries, as far as I am aware exploding ones are not an issue despite the appalling wiring in some if not most leisure vehicles. Any battery explodes when shorted, the chemistry and physics dictate this.

To have witnessed three exploding then you were either very unlucky, working with incompetent people, or working in an environment that with poor safety procedures.
