The stages of an exploding laptop battery

Nov 14th 2006 1:38AM on Engadget

I think the color of the flame has more to do with what is burning, and the oxygen composition than just the temperature (eg magnesium always burns white regardless of the temperature, where as copper burns green in the presence of halogens).

I don't know if Lithium fires change color as they increase in temperature or not, but that looked pretty hot. 1000 degrees would certainly be possible for a reactive metal fire.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
