[QUOTE="binky, post: 548715, member: 490"] Yes, but some self propagate oxygen when overheated, others don't do this. So standard LiIon will generate oxygen as it breaks down, causing thermal runaway in the neighbouring cells as a failed cell burns, and hence the nasty fires we have been seeing. If you use battery chemistry that doesn't release oxygen, then a single failed cell is far less likely to cause it's neighburs to overheat and burn in a runaway fire. Tesla did some interesting testing in regards to this. [URL unfurl="true"]https://electrek.co/2016/12/19/tesla-fire-powerpack-test-safety/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
