When a battery burns it burns a lot hotter — lithium. A little cell phone battery destroyed a car and was hot enough to melt the windshield and side window. How many more x one cell phone battery do you need to power your house?

Here is some information.

I witnessed the mentioned cell phone battery destroy the car. I have pictures if you are interested. It was sitting on the passenger car seat when it china-syndromed. It totaled the car and as I mentioned, it melted the windshield and passenger side window. Melted meaning that the windows started to mottle and flow. And of course, the interior of the car was destroyed. One little cell phone battery did it!

Houses blow up from natural gas, burn down from other power sources. Take safety precautions for whatever your risks are.
