    Batteries do not explode, they burn.

      Sure. But the capacitors in the devices do make a pop and the fragments/shrapnels from the damaged devices depart from their physical location at pace that I would not be comfortable with.

      If I’m dealing with a spicy pillow situation, the technical definitions as to whether or not something counts as an explosion is the last of my concern.
