Battery safety
Thermal runaway, explained calmly
The rare failure everyone worries about — and how it's caught early.
What it is
One cell overheats — and can't cool down.
If nothing intervenes, the heat can spread to its neighbors.
Keep it in proportion
Rare
modern packs are engineered specifically to prevent it
The signs come early
A battery signals distress
Temperature climbs in one spot
Voltage starts to drift
Subtle changes appear before any failure
There is a window
Minutes to hours of warning
Enough time to act — but only if something is watching.
What monitoring watches

one cell running hot
Voltage drift
cells falling out of line
