General Information. Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are used in many products such as electronics, toys, wireless head-phones, handheld power tools, small and large appliances, electric vehicles, and electrical energy storage systems. If not properly managed at the end of their useful life, they can cause harm to hu-man health or the environment.
End of Life (EoL) The point at which a battery ceases to be suitable for its current application. For automotive batteries this is typically 75–80% State-of-Health. Energy. The energy stored in a battery is specified in Watt hours (W h) or kiloWatt hours (kW h): 1 W h = 1 Amp Volt x 3600 s = 3600 AVs = 3600 Joules.

A failure of an e-mobility device containing a lithium-ion battery pack in a garage can lead to deflagration. This low-speed explosion produces about 3 psi of pressure inside the garage. That pressure will exert approximately 50,000 pounds of force on a garage door and potentially turn the door into a large projectile.
