Durable Laptop Batteries
Disposable lithium battery strip reacting in water
Disposable lithium camera batteries (and other batteries) contain a strip of lithium metal which can be extracted and dropped in water for a fun reaction. Be sure to do this in a well ventilated area, and stand far away. Given a large enough piece of lithium, it will begin to react violently and eventually “explode”, as seen in the video.

are you stupid? lithium is one of? the most unstable elements dumbass.
?, go? back to class.
How many? have you seen this in mythbusters. Plus there is a lot of other metals that do the same thing (like potassium).
This was a disposable lithium camera battery. If they are totally dead, though, they aren’t? nearly as reactive
Does anybody know? if the battery has to be charged to get this reaction?
“Like all alkali metals, lithium is highly reactive and? flammable.”
Faked. Lithium can never react with anything due? to how stable it is at the atomic level.
Sciencoking, Lithium is not dangerous is because it’s mixed with something else, just like what you use to neuteralize the battery juices dripping from AA batteries, with baking soda. It’s? to make sure it wouldn’t react even being used in digital camera (which is the true battery killer). Same with what’s used in Lithium-Ion batteries. It’s the safety that always come first even at battery factory.
After i saw this vid? i went to CVS and they asked me why i was buying so many batteries, i said, to keep us safe from religious fanatics.
I find it easier and cheaper to bust open dollar store lithium button? cells, and it smells way less too.
This give me an idea…
We could? make homemade fireworks for the 4th of July by downcycling bad lithium batteries!
lithium polymer is even worse they are actually the most dangerous household battery. if you have any battery that has lithium in it make sure you dispense of it correctly and not like what they did here. Imagine doing that with a laptop battery as you can see? there hasn’t been any video of it and hopefully you know why
Yes actually lithium? battery’s are one of the most dangerous household battery. They can be very explosive depending on the size thats why lithium is used in flares, fireworks, and sometimes rockets but there only dangerous if mistreated like in this video. Lithium-ion is dangeruse aswell
the same reaction you get when you take a little piece of the foil? , burn it and then throw it into water
i? thought lithium never got hot enough in water to burn or ignite the hydrogen, let alone explode…
Same time zone…! GMT+1…?
yea, i know, but that just looked better and i was pretty tired (midnight in Germany)
But the electrolytes used according to Wikipedia are rather? useful than dangerous…
I mean…
Manganese oxide, yayz! Great for oxidizing halogenides (chlorine ftw)
Sulfur dioxide… well… if you´re a good chemist you find a way to use that
Carbon fluoride (o.O)!
Iron sulfide.. great for making SH2 >:D
Iodine… ALWAYS AWESOME
You were lucky. It’s prooved that many (as I originaly claimed,? NOT ALL) Lithium batteries contains a toxic electrolyte. BUT if it’s the lithium your’e going for, then the toxicitu is almost gone, because the batteries that contains lithium metal NORMALLY doesn’t contain a very toxic electrolyte…
BTW I was just trying to make other people use the Energizer ones, because those are PROVED to be of the non toxic electrolyte type…
And yea, that joke is old…
1. The electrolytes used in luthium batteries aren´t nearly as dangerous as you think
2. Otherwise they wouldn´t be used in them
3. 2. actually belongs to 1.
5. I opened a DURACELL lithium battery and i´m still alive and not even? burned myself or something
6. You didn´t notice that i left out 4.
7. Now you´re angry at me because this joke is old
8. Now you agree
9. everyone is happy
If you use the energizer lithium ultimate batteries it’s totally safe, Wich I assume was used in this video. NO OTHER LITHIUM BATTERIES SHOULD BE ATTEMPTED OPENED!! All other? lithium batteries exept other Iron disulfide / lithium contains highly toxic (They will kill you) electrolyte. But FeS2/Li batteries are safe enough, though the iron disulfate smells like @#%&#¤&#!
it can? be.
ok, and btw:
is? breaking a lithium battery very dangerous?
well, it certainly works better when? you’re using a fresh lithium battery.
you have to use? fresh batteries, don´t you?
Silent… but deadly.?
