How To Know if your hover board battery is safe / WILL IT CATCH FIRE?

2015-12-25
what's up YouTube Wellington here with another video wait they have a bought batteries becoming an issue and a safety concern I thought I'd put together a video to give you a peace of mind to write your hoverboard comfortably or dish it and get something safer now all these hoverboards come with a lithium battery and for a lithium battery to be considered safe it has to go through these tests altitude simulation test FMO test vibration test shock external short-circuit impact of a charge and post discharge with that said there is only one way of consumer can know if the battery has been tested and said to use and that's by looking at the labeling on the battery itself high-power batteries like the ones used in hoverboards will always have an international standard label um 38.3 so to know if we are safe we have to open up the board all you'll need is a phillips head screwdriver and that's it after a bunch of screws i was lucky that the first sight that i opened is where the battery was located so let's take a close look at it the battery looks like it's in good shape nothing's worn up or spilling out which is a good sign and it works like i have a samsung 18 650 which I know for sure some Sun makes 18 650 batteries so that's another good sign and looking on down we see our UN 38.3 label which means it went through the testing and should be safe to use but in addition to that we see the C II mark in the ISO 9000 one which are all qualities certificates if your battery has all these labels most especially the UN 38.3 your board should be fine but I'll still be cautious and take all the safety measures of using lithium batteries which I met a video about right here if you want to go watch it most especially not charging overnight or when not at home thanks for watching please share this video subscribe to my channel leave your comments down below and I will see you in the next video it shot disclaimer though I'm not liable for any incorrect information given in this video if any please do your research and educate yourself and stay safe bye
