Lithium-ion batteries – Know the danger

Lithium-ion batteries power our world - from the smartphone in your pocket, to powerful e-bike batteries, to cordless drill drivers on the construction site. But what many people don't know: These small energy storage devices carry a huge danger. Fires are no exception - they are a reality. And when it happens, it is often too late.

 

What makes lithium-ion batteries so dangerous? The answer is simple and worrying: their enormous energy density - the very thing that makes them so efficient - is also their greatest weakness. Even a small scratch, a fall or too much heat can destabilize the fragile inner workings of the battery.

 

The result? An unstoppable process called thermal runaway. Within seconds, the battery becomes a fire torch - hotter than a welding torch, uncontrollable and devastating.

Just imagine: A bike ride, a brief moment of carelessness - the e-bike tips over. “Oh, not so bad”, you think. But inside the battery, tiny cells can be damaged. Barely visible, but highly dangerous. It happens during the next charging process - the battery overheats. Suddenly flames flare up and the e-bike starts to burn. The fire spreads rapidly, engulfing furniture and walls. Within a few minutes, the living room is transformed into a sea of flames.

 

Or take the everyday life of a tradesman: after work, the cordless drill driver lands on the back of the van. Vibrations and knocks? Everyday life. But the countdown begins in the battery. During the next charge, smoke suddenly rises from the device. Seconds later, flames flare up. The harmless tool becomes a burning danger. The workshop, the warehouse - nothing is safe anymore.​​​

Lithium-ion batteries are unpredictable. A barely visible defect can mark the fine line between routine and disaster.
