We seemingly live in a world powered by Lithium-Ion batteries from tiny cell batteries for key fobs and watches to the worlds' biggest battery created by Tesla which is the size of football field without them maybe everything would stop. Lithium is is an alkali metal and is a member of the same family as sodium potassium rubidium caesium and francium and like all alkali metals is highly reactive and flammable and for this reason Lithium-Ion batteries need careful storage. Fires involving Lithium-Ion batteries are the fastest growing fire risk in London if damaged or charged incorrectly they can generate and release an incredibly amount of heat energy known as 'thermal runaway' that can cause fires or explosions. As Lithium-Ion battery fires generate their own oxygen they can be very difficult to extinguish so prevention is obviously better than cure therefore storage of batteries in fire proof cabinets is essential and in the event of batteries actually catching on fire they need to be starved of oxygen and cooled and as Lithium-Ion batteries which have gone into "thermal runaway" can re-ignite up to 10 hours after being extinguished they should be kept starved of oxygen for at least 12 hours after the fire. The range of 1-door Lithium-Ion battery storage cabinets from ESE Direct Ltd provides safe storage for batteries with the option of charging points and control panels and also a quarantine model which in the event of an internal fire will automatically drop batteries into an integrated water tank where they will be both cooled and deprived of oxygen. The batteries should be then left in the water tank for at least 12 hours.
