Sorry if I was confusing the issue, but I thought I wrote that pretty clear.
This thread is discussing a Lipo fire in a scooter. From the pics I presume the stand up scooter kind. Typically 100-1000w brushed motors, and sla batteries in a box built into the deck you stand on.
The VESPA, was discussing the first battery fire I ever heard of, in 2008. This fire happened with not only "safe" lifepo4, but also a bms. He converted an old gas Italian vespa scooter from gas to electric. He had a duct tape type, pouch cell, lifepo4 battery, not protected, rattling around a bit loose, in an area with sharp metal edges.
I'm not sure if the pouches got cut, or just the main wires, but either way enough sparks from a short set flammable pieces of the scooter on fire and it burned.
I just wanted to say, ANY battery carried in a way that allows a short can catch fire. BMS or no BMS. You can do a fun demonstration of this by getting a 9v radio battery and putting it in your pocket along with some pennies. Educational.
You won't forget the experience.
