Brian Branigan, our power protection expert, will walk you through the safety features built into battery cells, modules, and cabinets. We'll uncover how advancements in technology have made these batteries safer than ever before. Don't miss this essential episode if you rely on lithium-ion batteries for backup power.
Key takeaways
Lithium-ion batteries can be dangerous: While they offer improved performance, lithium-ion batteries pose a fire risk if not equipped with the right safety features. These fires are difficult to control and can cause significant damage.
Multiple layers of protection are essential: Safe lithium-ion battery systems incorporate safety measures at the cell, module, and cabinet levels. This includes fusing, voltage and temperature sensors, and battery monitoring systems.
Industry standards play a crucial role: Organizations like Underwriters Laboratories (UL) have established safety standards and testing methods for lithium-ion batteries used in UPS applications, ensuring greater safety and reliability.
Lithium-ion batteries offer significant advantages: Despite the risks, lithium-ion batteries offer benefits such as smaller footprint, longer lifespan, faster recharge times, and higher operating temperatures compared to traditional batteries.

Thanks,very good information I would like to learn more about the lead acid batteries.
If you want safety, performance and 3200 cycles, Lead carbon AGM PbC, safer than lead acid, -40c to 60c ,no BMS heaters or equalization needed, sealed, full charge every 30 days is the only maintenance. I bought 48kw of Xterra for $9600 usd and can charge at 11kw or 190A.
Thanks for sharing .
I'm listening. Are the problems as bad with LFP batteries?
Will Prowse made a violent fire with LiPo4 after drilling a hole in one cell.
