Why Every Lithium Battery Is a Time Bomb

The number of lithium battery-sparked fires in NYC alone has risen by 500% since 2020, and the rate is only expected to increase. But why are these batteries, which have been advertised as the future of energy storage, so dangerous?   [Wealth Daily]      Alex Koyfman / Jun 27, 2023 Why Every Lithium Battery Is a Time Bomb Dear Reader, The phone in your pocket is literally a time bomb. If that sounds like hyperbole, Google "lithium battery fires" and feast your eyes on the headlines. I took the liberty of doing it myself and am including just the first page of results for your convenience: [lithium fire] The number of lithium battery-sparked fires in NYC alone has risen by 500% since 2020 and is already averaging more than one per day this year, with the rate only set to increase. But why? Why are lithium-ion batteries, which have been advertised as the future for energy storage across the board, so dangerous? It all goes back to their fundamental design — a fatal flaw that’s shared by just about every rechargeable battery on Earth today. Within the battery is a component called the "electrolyte." This is a liquid solution through which electrons flow from the anode to the cathode. This electrolyte is chock-full of organic solvents as well as dissolved oxygen. Those two ingredients are basically an incendiary device, with both fuel and oxidizer located in close proximity to one another. Tiny Stock Has 264 Patents on Groundbreaking AI Tech A little-known AI tech is becoming critical to the operations of 94% of corporations... It’s projected to be in nine out of every 10 cars by 2028... And is already essential to the workflow of 80% of hospitals. Which is the real reason why Bill Gates bet an enormous $20 billion on this AI niche... double what he invested in ChatGPT. Yet one tiny company already holds 264 ironclad patents on this tech. And it's lined up to hand savvy investors like you 5,300% profits. [Click here for the full story.]( You're Carrying One of These in Your Pocket The only thing that’s missing is heat. Introduce enough heat to get that electrolyte to start boiling out the oxygen and the fuse is lit. Wait for enough heat to build up for a flash to occur and you’re in business — or in this case, on fire. Heat, as you’ve probably noticed, is something that all lithium batteries have to endure on a regular basis. You already know this if you’ve ever charged your phone. The older a battery is, the less efficiently it takes on charge, with more and more energy being lost to heat with each successive charging cycle. For most lithium batteries, failure begins after several hundred charge cycles. Eventually, all of them fail. When it comes to consumer devices, however, the battery’s performance drops off so much that it’s typically replaced before that failure becomes catastrophic. Occasionally, however, if a battery is poorly produced, poorly refurbished, or simply damaged through the course of regular usage, the worst-case scenario unfolds. The Big Apple Is the World Capital of Burning Batteries In the case of most of the lithium fires in NYC, the culprit is an improperly serviced e-bike battery, but as time goes on and more and more devices hit the secondary market, the incidence rate of these fires will only increase. This has become such a problem that airlines have already put strict regulations on how lithium batteries can be transported. In cities like New York, similar regulations are being introduced to control the flow and storage of such batteries. There are buildings in the city today, for example, where things like e-bikes are no longer allowed. In view of all this, can we truly trust lithium to be the gasoline of the 21st century, as it’s been billed? Tesla Is Dead... Elon Musk Is Ruined Thanks to a new discovery — known as “Blue Gas” — electric car companies like Tesla are about to go down in flames. “Blue Gas” is 100% emission-free, can propel vehicles hundreds of miles, and allows cars to fully charge in just minutes. And the tiny company behind it is primed to absolutely shatter any gains ever paid out by Tesla.

That’s a 7,000% increase in charge speed, meaning you could charge your phone — or your EV, for that matter — in less than a minute. Like I said, you probably haven’t heard of this company, but you can own it. Its stock trades publicly on two North American stock exchanges. All you need is the ticker symbol and it can be yours. Interested in learning more?

Triple-digit temperatures are triggering thunderstorms that have knocked out power from Oklahoma to Mississippi... In fact, more than 515,000 people in total were without electricity just last week! And meteorologists say that this is just the beginning. Dangerous and record-breaking temperatures this summer will create even bigger power outages... Threatening the lives of millions of Americans with no air conditioning and taking a toll on the economy. That’s why the U.S. Department of Energy just poured $2.5 BILLION into a new energy facility... A facility that can power the electric grid NONSTOP — single-handedly solving the global energy crisis once and for all... And it’s fueled exclusively by ONE type of fuel called [“TriFuel-238.”]( This zero-emission fuel is in a league of its own. Its incredible power can be difficult to grasp. It’s an astonishing 40,835 times more powerful than natural gas... is 67,389 times more potent than gasoline... and generates an earth-shattering 78,171 times more energy than coal... All without producing a single carbon emission. And the best part? This fuel is patented by a company with a sub-$50 million market cap... Offering investors the potential for jaw-dropping triple-digit gains virtually overnight! [That’s why I urge you to take advantage of this opportunity as soon as you can...]( Because early investors behind this breakthrough fuel stand to profit most from this massive windfall.
