E-Bike Battery Explodes in Elevator & Cooks a Man

[RhodyPatriot]

You motherfuckers man, I'm looking at this battery charging scared as a motherfucker.

What if it does that in between my nuts one day?

Dude.

Relax.

You're way too based to be freaking out like a JackOfAllTrades lil' bitch.

 

[The Duke]

I'm a git you, Rhody, you was bullshittin' huh?

I have seen Lithium fires before, and that looked a bit flashy.

What if it does that in between my nuts one day?

I wouldn't get my nuts within ten feet of one of those suckers. Years ago, I used to have lithium battery powered video glasses (made them portable). Sony battery cost me $200.00. I never used the things and the battery just sat around.

I threw the battery away rather than keep it in the house.

Take that from a retired electrical engineer.

Can I bail before my fuckin' nutsack gets burned up?

Stay safe out there!

Now there's a man who knows what he's talkin' about.

This ain't even funny, motherfucker! If you only knew how hokey the shit is that I'm runnin', Hoo boy!
It ain't no "Solid Name Brand Battery" like was in that elevator video.
I done done some funky stuff.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

What an awful way to go. Maybe there's a bright side. He might have been a democrat.

Dude - what the fuck are you smoking tonight bro? haha

Now there's a man who knows what he's talkin' about.

I have a pair of Sony Glasstron glasses. You wear them and it's like looking at a 50 inch TV from 6 feet away. There's even earbuds built into them.

The idea is to have a portable video monitor like on a plane or somewhere so you can watch a movie in privacy. They connect to a base unit that powers them and takes the video input feed. You can run them off a DC wall adapter or off a lithium battery for better portability. I didn't use them often enough to keep the battery charged and so eventually threw the battery out rather than keep it around just to save not having to plug the things into the wall. Lith-ion batteries are at their most dangerous when they get deeply discharged. My guess is this dude rode his bike home then took the mostly discharged battery in with him when it burst inside the elevator.

If Li-Ion battery is deeply discharged, is it harmful for it to remain in this state unused?

It is well known that Li-Ion batteries should not be deep discharged. But sometimes they do discharge deeply. Is it OK for the device to remain in such state for a long time (and recharge again only

Epic gearhead hardcore knowledge learnin'.

I'm a git you, Rhody, you was bullshittin' huh?

To be fair to my man the Duke, Salty wasn't exactly HAPPY about this turn of events...

 

[The Duke]

Epic gearhead hardcore knowledge learnin'.

But what's the real story about the guy in the elevator with the battery?
I'm gettin' nervous because this battery ain't charged yet.
I think it should be.

 

[RhodyPatriot]

But what's the real story about the guy in the elevator with the battery?

I honestly don't know Brother.

If I had known this would cause you so much anxiety I would have never posted haha

My best interpretation is that he's alive but learned his mothafuckin' lesson.

 

[The Duke]

Dude - what the fuck are you smoking tonight bro? haha

It ain't what I'm smokin', bro. It's what I've done with batteries.

Probably things most people shouldn't.

Like what ol' boy was carrying? I'd put 2 of them together n shit.
That ship done sailed.
Gettin' worried about this double battery charging i'm doing right now, tbh. Fuck, why ain't it done yet?

 

[RhodyPatriot]

Hey.

It's impossible to argue with you when you're this likeable.

I told you Duke. Look it up. They took him to the hospital there in China and 28 days later, he died of his injuries. The guy probably looked like a burnt marshmallow.

When an EV battery catches fire, not only does the fire spew toxic gases, but the fire burns AT ABOUT TWICE THE TEMPERATURE NEEDED TO MELT STEEL.

And you can't put the fire out with water. They burn pretty much until they are DONE burning.

Only lithium battery in my house is (probably) my electric toothbrush and my cellphone.

If you are concerned, I'd store any big EV battery I had OUTSIDE my house preferably in an area that was fireproof, like stone, firebrick or the like.

You can predict and anticipate the risks with gasoline, etc., but an EV battery stores a LOT of fucking power and are usually safe until they aren't, then it is a big fucking problem.

 

[RhodyPatriot]

I told you Duke. Look it up.

Probably true.

But relax.

"I told you Duke" makes me want to beat the fuck out of anyone who challenges him.

It's a thing.

Dude.

Your based level is excellent.

I have no argument with you.

Well, I keep it outside. The bike will probably be fucked and probably some lawn furniture, if the house and me stand, I call that a win! That thing went so fast on that dude in the elevator, it's not even funny.
