My erstwhile business deals in batteries. Most of my competition has gone to Lithium, but I refuse (I know, I'm a freaking dinosaur), but one full house gone, one garage gone, that we know of, in this business due to Lithium batteries, and I just won't do it.
Not the first Tesla to have a battery fire, but I think first fatality due to that issue in a Tesla.
I have moved from Ni Cads to NiMH, which do the job admirably well.
Did you know most hybrids and electrics use some type of Lithium....except the Pry Us, which uses NiMH.

I use that video often to try to get folks to understand some of the issues. Locally, we just refer to all Lithiums as "787's"
