Li-ion Goes Boom
So I am sitting here watching football and heard a big loud boom. The Li-ion battery for my camcorder just exploded. It melted the cary strap on our camera case, put a hole in the curtains, and melted and burt a few spots on our carpet. Something tells me this isn’t normal. Now I am a little scared of Li-ion batteries. No more leaving the cell phones or laptops charging overnight.
That’s scary! Ya know, sometimes people bring their cell phones in to me and their phones get really really hot while charging. I’ve actually seen batteries that have swollen up big time and melted inside of phones before, but never one that exploded. Geez!
