[QUOTE="ClassicBiker, post: 158171, member: 1632"] HighTechLab: "I'm going to stab it and...run!" HighTechLab: "Oh look it's glowing red inside, but no flames." HightTechLab: "Should I stab it again? What do you think, Garret?" Garret: "Sure." HighTechLab: "Oh look it's on fire." Me: "Now you've pissed it off!" Seriously, though my take away is this. The LiFePO4 is probably fine unless there is a double puncture. With a single puncture it is a possible ignition source, with a double puncture it is definitely an ignition source. A well protected and secured battery is not likely to be punctured in an accident, if it is the accident is extremely serious and the battery is the least of your worries. What I found telling was the video that followed. It really abused some batteries and showed the results. [MEDIA=youtube]Qzt9RZ0FQyM[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
