for a stronger more sealed, heavier-built light, we would do the test on the other end of the pit behind a earth embankment for safety farther away.
Just found this thread. Very cool! Thanks for doing this. It’s nice to see what may happen and what may not. Good info for all flashaholics. I jumped when it popped and flame vented! :+1:
Update: I will be traveling again down east for 3 weeks to the same Province, and plan some further tests with more flashlights, cells, and different tests of ways to get Lithium Ion cells to vent. ( and better videos, with more commentating this time.
Looking forward to the tests. Was that that a year ago you did the first tests?
It was a year ago in July. (that day we did it too was cold and windy, and the first time attempting to force cells to vent, and had limited time that day.) I will be better prepared this time with better video gear and make sure we have a full good day to do them right.
