PC Pitstop: Laptop Battery Fire
February 162010
We intentionally created conditions in which the Li-ON battery pack would explode inside a generic portable. The results are dramatic. There are numerous conditions where these fires can occur in real life. Faulty battery packs (driving the recalls), faulty protection circuits inside the PC, exposure to excessive heat, and blunt force are some of the major ways that this could happen to you.

This just happened to my portable video player battery. I just happened to be home about 5 feet away. The venting and the flames were exactly the same. I managed to get the fire out but the flaming plastic went everywhere. I’m kinda lucky I was home. My apartment is on the 15th floor. Boy does it stink.
