Yes, the drawing shows the APUBAT on the wrong side of the a/c.

It is actually located on the right hand side of the EE Bay, facing aft.

NTSB is limiting its investigation into one destroyed battery and one exemplar?

One thinks they might consider the 100 or so that were changed out, and why they failed?

Its in the a/c logs, ok?

That's 6300 pounds of Lithium Batteries, unusable.......One imagines the NTSB might want to examine these defectives in situ, that's alot of electrolyte to put in the hold of a freighter.
