Question House batteries

[Kevin D Pem]

It's been a while! Probably 2018. Some references were books, but some were online!!! I will spend some time looking.

Please do share links to such research on LiFePO4 batteries being a fire hazard as you describe.

Best,

I too would like to see that.

Ditto on wanting to see recent research.
Battery technology is quickly changing and with larger volumes of batteries in use, we now have the ability to have a larger set of real world data and not just theory based on lab sized sets of data.
I understand that Lithium Ion batteries have a higher risk of run away heat and is the battery that is seen in use in highly publicized pictures, but Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePo4) has been a much safer and stable composition. But LiFePo4 has a lower energy density than Lithium Ion.
