[@SpAzMaNiK]

The reactions you see are proportional to how charged the batteries were when they encountered the thermal event. If the battery is nearly dead there will be very little reaction. However, if you do this with fully charged batteries you will get the most reaction. Edit: Also, to extinguish a battery fire, a fire extinguisher is nearly useless. If you want to put it out, pour sand or dirt on it to extinguish. When we do repairs on devices with batteries like those, we have buckets of sand in case of any thermal events. Water does not put out chemical fires.

[@brianpj5860]

Exactly, especially pouring water on Batteries with LITHIUM metal inside.....

[@Linus-nq2op]

Can't Lithium metal burn in sand?

[@johncoops6897]

@@Linus-nq2op - it's not the lithium that is burning. It's a very mild lithium salt solution. The liquid and insulating layers are what is burning, however that's only the reaction of those materials to the intense heat. The heat is simply the uncontrolled discharge of an absolute shitload of energy. So it's more like an electrical fire (welding) than a chemical fire.

[@billwilliams9023]

Water will help remove heat from the batteries and stop the remaining unexploded cells from exploding, problem is you need a lot of water to do this. As seen when they poured water on it the explosions stop for a short time but then it heats up again because there is just too much heat remaining and then more batteries explode

The only way to put out a battery fire short of waiting for it to burn itself down is water immersion to take the remaining "good" cells below thermal runaway temperature. Current battery tech generates its own oxygen when its electrolyte decomposes and cannot be put out any other way. If any surviving cells got damaged, they may enter thermal runaway at any time. A damaged battery pack cannot be considered safe until it is either destroyed or dunked into a salt brine to fully discharge whatever may be left.

Part of the problem is that Lithium reacts to water and liquids so even if you get it soaked it will keep burning. Getting it cooled off is the best thing you can do.

[@johncoops6897]

Totally irrelevant since there isn't ANY lithium metal in these batteries. None.

[@johncoops6897]

@Neb6 - The danger of these batteries is the "energy density" - in other words, the massive amount of power that they can store. If these is a fault, a huge electrical current flows through the battery and that causes heating and sometimes fire. It's not a lithium fire... it's an electrical fire. Until the energy is depleted, the electrical arcing will continue. Since the batteries are made up of numerous small cells, a fault in one cell can cause overheating and failure of adjacent cells. Once it starts, a chain reaction can occur. It is possible to weld under water with similar amounts of current as can be stored in one or two "power-type" 18650 battery cells. People make spot welders with the pouch cells used in RC hobby vehicles. A dead-flat lithium battery won't burn for very long, if you can get it alight.

[@Patrick-857]

This is incorrect as there is no elemental lithium, plus lithium doesn't actually make up much of the battery. The issue is a massive amount of stored chemical energy. The fire is a runaway chemical reaction that doesn't need air to keep going. Water works, but you need insane amounts, preferably fully submerging it. Even then, it doesn't stop the reaction, of slows it down and takes the heat out of it. Even more effective is extremely cold brine. Brine can stay liquid at around - 20C and it also helps discharge the battery. It's been demonstrated to be more effective with EV fires.

[@dr_ned_flanders]

The best fire extinguisher is none. There isn't a fire exstinguisher to put these fires out. You can just try and stop it spreading by cooling with water.

[@silvanotonini9151]

The reason you can't put the fire out is because a fire is the stored up energy in the battery until that energy is exhausted it won't stop burning.

The fire brigade here in super woke country had to procure special water tanks to store burning electric cars in when they have caught fire. It is a matter of time when the omnipresent arsonists here catch a Tesla - or the car next to it close enough to spread the fire. If this happens in an underground car park the building above might suffer structural damage.

I'd hate to spend time in the hospital and not in the fresh air. That's a nice house and yard. Are we gonna get a tour?

LITHIUM + WATER = STUPID IDEA

A normal Co2 fire extinguisher work on small lithium batterie fires like phones and battery banks but anything bigger like laptops and E scooters you need a Lith-Ex fire extinguisher.

Can the same happen with bad or dead batteries?

Where are Gru's minions? Surely they can make decent batteries!

*whooshing explosions* "Sorry boys, this battery is a hell."

When Richard hammond wrecked an electric racecar a couple years ago, it took 4 days for it to burn out, you can't put it out...
