A lithium-ion battery incident can involve:
- Thermal runaway
- Rapid temperature escalation
- Flammable gas generation
- Dense and potentially harmful smoke
- Battery-cell rupture
- Jet flames
- Cell-to-cell propagation
- Re-ignition after visible flames are controlled
- Damage to surrounding equipment and property
LIFEGUARD® helps customers identify an appropriate portable extinguisher or integrated fire protection arrangement based on battery chemistry, battery capacity, quantity, application and installation conditions.

What Is a Lithium Battery Fire Extinguisher?
A lithium battery fire extinguisher is a specialised firefighting unit intended to assist in controlling an early-stage fire involving lithium-ion batteries or battery-powered equipment.
Depending on the product design and extinguishing medium, it may help to:
- Suppress visible flames
- Absorb heat from the battery
- Reduce battery temperature
- Cool adjacent battery cells
- Limit fire spread
- Reduce thermal propagation
- Minimise the possibility of re-ignition
- Support evacuation
- Provide additional emergency response time
Portable extinguishers may be considered for small and accessible battery incidents involving electronic devices, power tools, e-bike batteries, electric scooters and localised charging areas.
Large electric vehicle batteries, industrial battery rooms, warehouses and BESS projects normally require a broader fire protection strategy involving detection, alarm, electrical isolation, ventilation control, cooling, containment and fixed suppression.
Why Lithium-Ion Battery Fires Are Different
Lithium-ion battery fires can behave differently from ordinary fires because the heat-producing reaction may continue inside the battery cells.
Thermal Runaway
Thermal runaway is an uncontrolled self-heating reaction inside a battery cell.
It may be caused by:
- Internal short circuit
- Mechanical damage
- Overcharging
- Excessive ambient temperature
- Manufacturing defects
- Incorrect charging equipment
- Electrical faults
- Exposure to an external fire
- Improper storage
- Damage during transportation
Once thermal runaway begins, the battery cell may generate heat faster than it can release it.
High Heat Generation
A battery undergoing thermal runaway can continue producing heat even after visible flames have been reduced.
This remaining heat may affect adjacent cells, wiring, nearby equipment and combustible materials.
Flammable Gas Release
Overheating battery cells may release flammable gases and vapours. Gas accumulation inside a cabinet, room, vehicle or container may create an additional fire or explosion hazard.
Cell-to-Cell Propagation
Heat from one affected cell may initiate thermal runaway in neighbouring cells. The incident can then spread through a battery pack, module, rack or storage area.
Re-Ignition
A lithium-ion battery may appear extinguished while internal cells remain hot. If sufficient cooling, isolation and monitoring are not provided, the battery may re-ignite.
Hazardous Smoke
Battery incidents may generate dense smoke and potentially harmful decomposition products. Personnel should avoid exposure and follow the applicable emergency evacuation procedure.
