[QUOTE="Still Afloat, post: 497168, member: 32426"] It really boils down the packaging that holds the cells. If there are protrusions, wear points or an inadequate volume to accommodate swelling as the cells age, then the risk of a thermal problem increases. I think most battery manufacturers have this part of the equation under control. One of the biggest issues is charging. Using a poorly designed charger or just using the wrong type of charger increases risks. AND… charging a battery at or near it’s maximum rated capacity isn’t a good idea on a regular basis. [/QUOTE]
