LIPO Decomposition and why
Not a review but a safety tip about LIPO batteries, why they Puff up and what to do about it.
1/ Are Puffed up LIPO batteries dangerous, Short answer YES.
There are many examples of these batteries starting fires, not so much in the vaping world but in the model aircraft and hobby world.
2/ So why do LIPO batteries puff up, The normal gas generation in a lithium ion battery.
This gas is generated through the process of electrolyte decomposition.
These batteries are made up of three things, the Anode, the cathode and the electrolyte.
Electrolyte is the chemical that allows charged ions to flow from the anode to the cathode when discharging and vice versa when charging.
Electrolyte decomposition happens when the electrolyte chemical itself starts to break down and starts to form lithium oxide on the anode or cathode.
3/ Fix, Short answer you can not fix.
Don't try to fix
Is it worth endangering yourself or burning your house down to save a few quid. LIPO batteries are cheap. Just replace it.
Please discharge a damaged battery in full and dispose of it at a battery recycling plant that will take LIPO batteries. Do Not put them in your domestic rubbish bin.
Tips
Heat kills LIPO batteries and as vapers we generate a lot of hear that makes its way to the battery.
Keep an eye on the condition of the LIPO battery your using and inspect it often.
Charge properly and safely.
Do Not over discharge as this will speed up the decomposition.
Misused LIPO batteries don't last long.
If storing a device with a LIPO battery find out the correct storage voltage.
