Also, IIRC it didn’t only damage the person carrying it, but bystanders? Li-ion-batteries don’t do that, for sure. Especially if you consider the small size of the battery. Batteries can explode and catch fire, yes, and if you have ever seen a burning EV, you realize that. But an EV has 100x the battery capacity of this device, and also it doesn’t explode this violently at all.
