You even spilled some water on punctured cells, which then ended up in the soil. The worst thing is that it was done by firefighters, as usually they are the persons who knows about such dangers. But not in this case, it seems they are stupid enough even to breath in the toxic fumes.

Similar way to Nuclear Power in a way. It is arguably one of the cleanest and most efficient energy production methods. Modern plants have many safety features making a meltdown very very unlikely. But due to it being also one of the most horrible disasters if it does go horribly wrong, a few accidents have put a bad taste in many people's mouths.

And Czechs do not want to shut down their nuclear power plants even tho there are a lot of protests from their neighbours. They even plan on upgrading the existing powerplants to get more energy, because they know that coal will once dry up and nuclear is only viable option in this part of the world. Solar panels are utopian dream that will cost huge amount of money and will pollute our planet a lot if everyone will really switch to that. Not even mentioning the need of some sort of energy storage for winters, bad weather times etc. It will be probably huge battery banks, which will only last for few decades since you know, batteries, that will pollute our world so much, that those "very smart" people will regret not trusting Nuclear energy.

Interesting tests! What was the state of charge of the batteries? Note that the probability of a thermal runaway significantly drops at a low state of charge. This is especially important when buying cells that have been transported by air. Those are usually shipped at 30% SoC.

Does the transition metal ions present in the cathodes (other than LFP) influences or catalyzes the thermal runaway while damaging. in both cases, Li-ion shuttles and the same carbonate electrolyte. (in electrochemistry point of view completely agreed, but..), pls clarify my doubt

An interesting & very practical demonstration of the various battery types, thanks for posting.

I've been telling people for years about the dangers of making a battery bank with Lipo batteries and those people looked at me like I was crazy. While LIFePo4 batteries will combust also. The chances of having an unpleasant reaction inside a structure is greatly reduced especially with a battery management system that can monitor the temperature and the individual charge on each battery in an array. The cases that house the electrolyte for LIFePo4 batteries are pretty resilient against physical damage. They are unlikely to be damaged unless someone uses a tomahawk like in the video or uses a wrench and physically short circuits the cells through stupidity. Remember a fuse is your friend, always use one of the correct rating. A breaker may not be so friendly.
