Lithium batteries pose the following potential safety risks in daily life:

Battery Overheating 

Lithium batteries may overheat when used in fast charging, high-temperature environments, or for extended periods of time. Overheating may cause battery expansion, deformation, and even lead to fire or explosion. For example, in hot summer, placing devices with lithium batteries inside the car may cause battery problems due to high temperatures.

Collision and compression

Strong impact or compression from external forces may damage the internal structure of the battery, causing a short circuit and posing a danger. For example, if a mobile phone or laptop accidentally falls off and is severely impacted.

Improper charging

Using non original chargers, inferior chargers, or charging under unstable voltage conditions may result in abnormal charging and increase safety risks.

Unauthorized modification

Some users may modify electronic devices or batteries without authorization, which may damage the original protection mechanism of the battery and cause safety issues.

Aging and damage

As the usage time increases, the battery will age and its performance will decline. Aging batteries may be more prone to malfunctions and safety hazards. For example, lithium-ion batteries used in electric bicycles for many years may pose higher risks.

Excessive discharge

Exhausting the battery to an extremely low level may cause irreversible damage to the battery, affecting its safety and lifespan.

For example, there have been news reports that the overheating of lithium batteries in mobile phones caused them to catch fire while charging, resulting in property damage; There are also cases of lithium batteries on electric scooters exploding due to aging and improper use.
