Have you guys ever seen a thermal runaway? Just have a quick search on YouTube. I've seen batteries go before and it is not something I'd like to be near to again!
Agree, I've seen a number of videos of Lithium-ion batteries in consumer appliances going up and it's quite scary. I don't know anything about the type used in the 787 but I'd hate to be around if one of them that size went off like the consumer ones!
