I reread your first post, and i see no problem with a standard boiler plate link for newbies, go ahead and write one and we can critique and improve upon it if necessary

That’s probably the best idea in this thread yet, sticky a lithium ion safety thread and we can all add to it.

I’m not the OP, but I’m foolish enough to take a run at a first draft of a Li Ion batter safety thread.

I’ve posted a first draft of “Lithium-ion battery safety 101” in the “Rechargeable Batteries” forum.

Looking forward to your comments. (I’ll be back in 5 minutes. I’m going to look for my asbestos boxer shorts. )

You should be wearing lead boxing shorts, build your core muscles >-)

Lithium-ion battery safety Motivation: Many of the flashlights discussed/reviewed/modded in Budget Light Forum (BLF) use Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. Use of Lithium-ion batteries does introduce some risks, and requires more precautions than alkaline batteries. But like any tool, when used properly, the risks can be managed and reduced.
