Abstract
A fourth case confirms that the explosions are BLEVEs (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosions) rather than hydrogen explosions. There are approximately 15,300 explosions annually in the U.S. with attendant spouting acid electrolyte or flying solid parts that cause injuries. It is recommended that temperature sensitive fuses or a circuit breaker be incorporated in the battery to prevent these BLEVE accidents.
