Lithium-ion battery-powered items, including a robot vacuum, mobile phone, and children's toys, were found among the refuse, suggesting thermal runaway caused the fire. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries. The incident serves as a reminder to dispose of lithium-ion batteries at designated recycling centers to prevent fires.
Sometimes the firefighters may decide to let the battery just burn itself out, rather than dousing it with water. Once an EV battery catches fire, it's possible for the chemical fire to reignite after the initial burn dies down. It's even possible for the battery to go up in flames again days later.
According to the Kent Fire Department incident report, initial attempts to extinguish the fire with water were unsuccessful, as the fire reignited underneath the vehicle after appearing to be extinguished. Then, the firefighters cut a hole to apply water directly to the burning battery.
With thermal runaway, a chemical reaction located in one of the cells lights an initial fire, and the heat soon spreads to each adjacent cell until the entire EV battery is burning. Greg Less, director of the University of Michigan's Battery Lab, breaks down EV battery fires into two, distinct categories: accidents and manufacturing defects.
Lithium-ion batteries, found in many popular consumer products, are under scrutiny again following a massive fire this week in New York City thought to be caused by the battery that powered an electric scooter.
