Understanding Lithium-Ion Battery Risks and Defects

Lithium-ion batteries power much of our modern world — from electric vehicles and e-bikes to smartphones, laptops, and medical devices. While they offer efficiency and convenience, their design and chemistry also carry inherent risks. Manufacturing defects, poor quality control, or inadequate safety features can cause these batteries to:

  • Overheat or experience thermal runaway
  • Ignite and cause battery fires or explosions 
  • Explode under normal use or charging conditions
  • Leak dangerous chemicals
  • Short-circuit due to faulty design or assembly

Button-shaped lithium-ion batteries, often found in children’s toys, watches, and remote controls, present unique dangers. If swallowed, these batteries can cause severe internal burns within hours, a life-threatening emergency, especially for children.

Who Can Be Held Liable for Battery-Related Injuries?

When a lithium-ion battery fire, explosion, or malfunction causes serious injury or death, multiple parties may bear legal responsibility. Products liability allows victims to hold manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable when their products are defective or unreasonably dangerous.

Potential defendants in these cases may include:

  • Battery manufacturers – for design defects, manufacturing defects, or failure to warn about known hazards.
  • Device manufacturers – if the product that housed the battery was improperly designed or failed to include safety measures to prevent overheating, short-circuiting, or other dangers.
  • Distributors and retailers – for selling defective products or failing to remove dangerous products from the market once problems became known.
  • Importers and component suppliers – for supplying unsafe parts or failing to meet applicable safety standards.
