Location: E. Tenn | "As the development of lithium-ion batteries is an active area in fundamental research
and product development, knowledge regarding the use and abuse of these products
and their possible failure modes is still growing. Therefore, it is important that
safety standards continue to evolve to help drive toward the safe commercial use of
these energy storage devices as they power more and more products."
No doubt a lot of the issues will be resolved, meanwhile I just don't want to be the first kid on my block to try them.. The overnight air express operators have lost several airframes over Li-ion batteries that have caught fire. Had a couple colleagues who were lucky to make it to the ground with such a fire.
