Re: local fire brigade was unsure if the car’s battery would explode

Have fun googling Battery Thermal Runaway

I've participated in workshops with car makers, battery makers and HSE, I'm familiar with the risks. Including that if one cell experiences runaway, the surrounding ones tend to go up as well.

We didn't get round to the choice of physical construction, otherwise I could have asked the people who know.
