  • $\begingroup$ @tylerH just YouTube lipo battery explosion. There is a wealth of examples of explosions. Also, guess why they don't let you bring big lipo batteries on planes. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 27, 2019 at 8:09

    $\begingroup$ @Aron When someone asks you to source a claim, "go search for it" is not an acceptable response. If you're the one making the claim (on, like, every answer suggesting it here), you need to provide the evidence for the claim. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 28, 2019 at 13:47
  • $\begingroup$ @TylerH the fact is, the above, was not an answer and thus should not be held to the same standard. Furthermore, exploding batteries, would, I argue, fall under common knowledge. Especially after a spate exploding phone deaths and self immolating Samsung Phablets. However, here is your citation batteryuniversity.com/learn/archive/lithium_ion_safety_concerns $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 28, 2019 at 16:36
